Tell me I’m wrong. This is going to render the military ineffective and incompetent, leaving only the idiots in charge. (I’m not wrong)

@WarnerCrocker How does wannabe-Hitler get the “Hitler’s generals” he wants? By appointing MAGA yes-men to senior posts in the military.

Republicans in Congress will do nothing to stop this. I really hope the military leadership has ways to fight back against politicization of the military.

@charvaka @WarnerCrocker

Hitler gave his generals stipends to get their "loyalty": is Trump planning to do similar?

@ferricoxide @WarnerCrocker

Elon the #oligarch will be happy to fund those stipends. Elon likes playing Marcus Crassus to Trump’s Caesar, bankrolling the campaign to destroy the republic, so that would be very much in character.
