America was derp long before Obama showed his big eared ass up.
George HW Bush, Clinton, W Bush, and THEN Obama.
That's thirty-two years (hope my math's right) of straight derp. Of course derpish Generals will float to the top, and patriots will be purged. Some few patriots managed to fly under the radar and survive the purges (Rodgers/Flynn), but I assume they are few and far between.
It should be no surprise when our current Generals put in place pre-Trump turn out to be derps.
Trump seriously, if not fatally, crippled his presidency by his horrible hiring. Listening to Priebus, Kushner, and Ivanka was and is a catastrophic mistake.
Mad Dog of dogma...
