was today's trial run with the generals a success or not? [View all]

only know what I have seen on DU and that sounded pretty awful. I think it was a direct slap designed to see what response they got before they do worse. Like has any republican been critical. ANY? of course the military may well cave in being its their paycheck and benefits on the line vs integrity, morals, and all that PR military propaganda.

Then there's the call for a fit military with the corpulent commander in chief in full view. fat wise he is heading for Goering territory.

How did it look to y'all?
