In this respect, Trump is no Eisenhower. Over Trump's four years in office, he boosted defense spending from just over $600 bn to just over $700 bn.
Eisenhower cared intensely about democracy and law.
Trump wants a military that acts as his own personal goon squad.
Remember this from 2019? breitbart.com/politics/2019/…
Trump hates them for it.
Don't invoke the legacy of Dwight Eisenhower to justify Trump's outrage that the military he heads is loyal to something bigger than himself.
