“If there is a general’s coup, it will be anti-Trump. If there is a colonel’s coup, it will be pro-Trump.”
Verrrrrry interesting!
I believe this to be an accurate statement, since ..
it seems, recently , the higher you go in the military ranks, the more politically connected promotions seem to be,
and surprisingly less reliant on military tactics, ethics, and ability.
Recent candidates seem to be more of the " Go along, to get along" type, rather than based on leadership principles of yesteryear.
