While I don't really give a shit about US military officers, it really is wild how much the admin and right wing at large has swallowed their own propaganda. Insulting and pissing off your top military command is the exact opposite of what you ever want to do. I listened to him speak, and it really was like he was at Trump rally, rambling about how gay, woke, and weak the military was, to the completely silent high command. He was also incapable of reading the room and realizing no one was clapping, no one was excited.

They're so fucking stupid.
