This is why we should not be laughing or blowing this off. It was not Sarah Sanders who put that tarp over the McCain name or disinvited sailors from that ship. Members of the United States Navy disrespected their own by carrying out this base & foul order.
If you are hoping that members of the armed services will refuse to carrry out extreme or obscene orders by this President you should be alarmed. This did not even come directly from the Commander-in-Chief. But it was carried our nevertheless. And that frightens me.
That's why it's critical to identify the individuals who were responsible for carrying this out. Just think about the young sailors from the McCain arriving at the event and being turned away? Who ordered that? Who executed it? This should not be condoned. It's dangerous.
The attack on the integrity of institutions is the most alarming aspect of this Administration. The DOJ, the intelligence community, the judiciary, the military. We should always take that seriously and push back against it.
