1/8 Donald Trump was a speaker at the National Prayer Breakfast event, and of course, BITCHED about losing the 2020 election and how he was cheated...which is STILL bullshit. The worst thing he could have said was when he talked about pardoning soldiers accused of war crimes: "We
2/8 train these soldiers to be the best, and when they go and react to that training we put them in prison". A TOTAL crock of SHIT. Donald Trump has done MORE harm to our military than ANY other President in U.S., firing top military Generals and Admirals with DECADES of NEEDED
3/8 experience, whose ONLY "crime" was that they were the wrong colored skin or they were the wrong gender, or who would NOT follow illegal orders that go against our constitution. These soldiers are then replaced with YES men, who will do as Trump desires, which is SUCH a shame
4/8 ...they are beholden to the U.S. constitution, NOT the man sitting in the WH, PERIOD. When Trump pardoned these soldiers accused of war crimes, he was telling OTHER soldiers who would commit crimes while in uniform, to include MURDER, that it's A OK, go ahead and commit
5/8 crimes all you want Donald Trump has your back. It is DISGUSTING, and undermines the military's ability to enforce discipline should a soldier decide to go rogue in a theatre of war. When Trump intervened in war crimes cases on behalf of individuals accused or convicted of
6/8 war crimes, he undermined decades of precedent in American military justice that has contributed to making our country’s fighting forces the envy of the world. If there was ever a need for one following law and order, soldiers ESPECIALLY have to do so. Disregard for the law
7/8 undermines our national security by reducing combat effectiveness, increasing the risks to our troops, hindering cooperation with allies, alienating populations whose support the United States needs in the struggle against terrorism, and providing a propaganda tool for
8/8 extremists who wish to do us harm. He has NO respect for ANY military rules and regulations, fires anyone who won't do his ILLEGAL bidding, and puts them, AND our country in, in SEVERE danger. All this from COWARD he used "bone spurs" to get out of serving in Vietnam...
