An interesting article on the relationship between General Mark Milley and President Trump.

That is some serious dreck.  Though I've come to expect that from The Atlantic.

So, what does the article say?  It requires an account to read.

By the time I got to end of the preview it was obviously a puff piece on Miiley and how he "protected" the cou try and constitution from the raveges of the obviously dangerous DJT.  Or whatever.

I stopped trying to read it about there.  So, DJT is obviously unfit to be POTUS, but old Grandpa Ramble is just fine?

I am of the opinion that Milley committed treason when he met Pelosi during the transition period to assure her or whatever that the military wouldn't become the prize of dictator Trump or whatever.  At the time Trump was his boss and Pelosi had squat to do with the military chain of command as long as pres and vp were breathing.  And I am still stuck on Syria, I am sad to learn our allies were hung out  by the withdrawal and reversal but it still confounds me the president ordered us out and we're still there. I think the top bureaucrats and pentagon answer to no one.

I'm not certain what he did was treason, but he certainly went outside his chain of command. Milley was a snake. He should never have been in that office.

[Edit to add] I forgot about the call to China. Yes, that was treason.

All the rules went out the window when it comes to Trump. Or, the facade has finally fallen away as to how things have really worked behind the scenes all along.
