“You also say he obviously has not read what you obviously consider to be the right books.
You denigrate the Military Academies, some of the finest institutions in the nation.
I guess Ike, George Washington and Grant should have stayed out of the affairs of the nation.”
I did not in any way denigrate the Military Academies. I served in the military. It IS a dictatorial, top-down structure. That’s not a criticism. It really couldn’t function any other way.
George Washington was not a product of a military academy. He learned from the ground up and was also a legislator and farmer. His whole life was NOT in the military. Grant was a failure at everything but the military, he was a terrible administrator and had difficulties dealing with the various parts of the government. Ike proved himself to be an able administrator, working with all kinds of factions and personalities and nations during WWII. He did not give opinions about legislation or decry “partisanship” which apparently only exists when republicans don’t go along with democrats.
“This man has obviously read very little political history and should shut up. “
I rest my case.
