235 former military leaders support Trump, warn 'our historic way of life is at stake'
Fox News ^ | September 14 2020 | Ronn Blitzer

Posted on 09/14/2020 2:21:56 PM PDT by knighthawk

A new letter bearing the names of 235 retired U.S. military leaders supports President Trump in what is described as arguably "the most important election since our country was founded."

Retired Army and Air Force generals and Navy admirals were among those who signed the letter, which was released by the Trump campaign Monday. The former leaders warned against the dangers currently facing the nation, and claimed that President Trump is better equipped to handle them than his Democratic opponent.

"As senior leaders of America's military, we took an oath to defend the United States from all enemies, foreign and domestic," the letter says. "At present, our country is now confronted with enemies here and abroad, as well as a once-in-a-century pandemic. As retired military officers, we believe that Donald J. Trump has been tested as few other presidents have and is the proven leader to confront these dangers."

When the active duty generals try to remove him, Trump is going to need some men who are loyal to him. Maybe, between him and Secret Service.

How many of Obama’s perfumed princes are still in positions of command authority?

Maybe PDJT can remind the soldiery that they have both the right and the responsibility to refuse an unlawful order.

Almost all of our flag officers are Obama appointees who saluted the transgendering of the military.

The usurper ran all the warriors out.

I’m sure we’re running our own counter-insurgency against these violent leftists, and it’s about time.

“7 Days in May” is a great 60s film that Captures what is happening now...

1. We need high profile former military heavy hitters to come out and utterly reject the Democrat seditionists.

2. We need the Republican Governors to strongly warn Democrat senators, congressman, and Democrat governors.

3. We need Republican Governors to verify National Guard fidelity to the constitution and not a coup.

4. Trumps secretary of Defense needs to verify Military leadership fidelity to constitution and weed out any and all commenting on sedition.

5. The supremacy clause must be enacted to ensure voter identification and voter authenticity...

The media tried to mislead and present an illusion that most high ranking officers are plotting against the President. That’s not happening, and weirdos were shuffled into slots out of the way. The Administration has moved many officers around to enhance efficiency and cohesiveness since taking office.

The President is the Commander-in-Chief and gives lawful orders with the help of good advisors, now that the Administration has been tuned up for four years. The current personnel situation is good and won’t be turned against Americans, unless you fail to personally campaign enough to get the President reelected with a majority Republican Senate. Fail to do your duty with the election, and Walter Mitty will be dragged off to jail sobbing and confused.

There have been too many TV movies portraying our military people as plotting villains. Shed the brainwashing.

@President Trump: Fire the top 235 Obama appointees with stars who are still on active duty, and replace them with these guys. Not a one of them will refuse to serve, and I bet that they’d all do it for free.

There's more than just the former "leaders". There are a lot of veteran officer and enlisted.

Also, it's not the "historical" way of life, it's the future as well. These Communist Democrats are determined to ruin everything they touch.
