A former top Army General commanding Europe slams Trump

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Days before the summit, U.S. Army Lieutenant General and former Commanding General of the U.S. Army Europe and the Seventh Army Mark Hertling wrote: “Watching the US prep for a critically important meeting with Putin in Alaska reminds me of students who realize they had an assignment a day before it is due. Hoping I'm wrong, but concerned about the diplomatic approach & the potential outcome." He was speaking @NicolleDWallaceRetired and reported at MSN.

He wrote on social media on Friday: “This afternoon, I told @NicolleDWallace that I had a sense of ‘dread’ about what might happen in the Alaskan ‘summit.’ After watching the press conference, that dread has come to life.”

He added, “This whole thing is despicable.”In 2018, Hertling co-wrote the Politico op-ed ‘Putin’s Attack on the U.S. Is Our Pearl Harbor,’ which urged the U.S. to respond accordingly to Russian interference in the 2016 United States election.]

Hertling is not the only highly decorated veteran who has voiced opposition to Trump’s warm welcome of Putin on U.S. soil. One is retired Marine Lt. Col. fighter pilot Amy McGrath also chastised the Trump administration. McGrath wrote: "I'm sorry but it's hard to get over the picture of the airmen on their knees, in front of the Russian jet, rolling out the red carpet for a mass murderer. Just never thought I'd see that."

MAGA pundit heavies like Charlie Kirk and Fox News Laura Ingraham, neither with military credentials," opined that any who "who are critical of the meeting are 'biased.” Kirk wrote: “Anything the media says about the Alaska summit must be immediately discredited because they are mad Trump met with Putin at all.” And Ingraham lashing out at the negative feedback on X: “Anyone saying that the Trump-Putin meeting was a failure is ignorant, biased or both.”

That is what many will say on USMB who have no military background even as other ranks. Putin wants a Peace Accord, not a cease fire agreement. Trump, once braying threats of sanctions or worse if no ceasefire happened, says that is "no longer the immediate goal."

Whether ceasefire or Peace Accord or nothing, I predict we will see British, French, and German "peace keepers" in Ukraine, perhaps before the end of the year.

Mister Horses were you ever been in the Service ? If you were you would have learned you never knock your superiors.

Does General Mark Hertling have political credentials because Orange Man Bad and Pukin was a political meeting...since we are not at war. And General Hertling is a hack and should know better to criticize the president. Since the General serves as a military analyst for CNN...I'm pretty sure he says what he is told to say. Because CNN is no longer news...it entrainment for LIBs.

Here I came across this Mark Hertling, a local area resident and retired lieutenant general in the U.S. Army, has endorsed Jennifer Adams in the congressional election for Florida’s 7th district. He picked Adams, a Democratic challenger, over incumbent Rep. Cory Mills, the Republican...

The General retired 12 years ago and a lot has changed since than. He is a brilliant man and a outstanding carrier...no doubt. But CNN really had to go in the way back machine to find a puppet just the right size.

A former top Army General​

At least we now know why he's a "former" General.

 

[Mac1958]

Whether ceasefire or Peace Accord or nothing, I predict we will see British, French, and German "peace keepers" in Ukraine, perhaps before the end of the year.

The Brits, the French, and the Germans are serious and informed.

America is not. America now is just annoying reality teevee.

 

[fncceo]

America is not. America now is just reality teevee. Fluff. Hair spray.

You haven't seen Euro TV in the last 20 years ... it makes American TV look like Harvard Debating Society.

 

[Missouri_Mike]

The Brits, the French, and the Germans are serious and informed.

America is not. America now is just annoying reality teevee.

I am fine with our military members sitting home watching millions of Brit, French and German kids die for Ukraine while they watch TV. The more the merrier.

Great. Then get your Orange Christ™ out of the whole process. He doesn't belong there.

All he cares about is protecting his Russian financial interests and winning the Nobel.

He doesn't belong there.

He doesn't belong there.

Offer accepted. No more money or weapons for Ukraine, no meetings with Russia, let Europe fight this war. We can watch on the news channels.

 

[Mac1958]

Offer accepted. No more money or weapons for Ukraine, no meetings with Russia, let Europe fight this war. We can watch on the news channels.

We agree. Looking forward to your specific criticisms of Trump on this.

 

[fncceo]

let Europe fight this war. We can watch on the news channels.

With Europeans paying Russia for oil and gas to finance Russia's War, that show could go on for years.

Wow, the French, Germans, Dutch and Brits are becoming to effeminate to fight. Then again combined they don't have the ammo to last more than two weeks against a blitz invasion.

In 2018 he wrote and article saying that Russias attack on the U.S was the new Pearl Harbor? What attack is he referring to? He sounds excessively biased and it appears he bought the whole "Russia, Russia" narrative hook, line and sinker. It's difficult to take him seriously as an objective voice when that is the title of his op-ed. He may have his criticisms and opinions on the meeting as a general position but he has to make such an argument against pursuing peace if this is his discource. China wants this war to continuex they want Russia.and tje West weakened. The leaders in Europe.and their Useful Idots would prefer to get closer to China disregarding Americas national security concerns while not putting theirnown soldiers at risk. The focus needs to be on the Asia Pacific, not another European war.

OMG...MSNBC found two retired members of the military who don't like Trump and put them on air? Unbelievable! Well that's it, John! Trump might as well give up trying to stop the war that Joe Biden allowed to start! (eye roll)

When did you on the left become so obsessed with Donald Trump that you'd rather a war that's killing three thousand human beings a day continue than Trump be successful at stopping the bloodshed? Seriously...what does that say about the left these days, John? When did you become THOSE people?

Old saying. Salute the rank and not the person.

They can shove their TDS where the Sun doesnt shine.

Trying to end 3 years of killing is NOT A BAD THING IDIOT.

Trying ti start WW3 IS.

Russia did interfere in 2016 and did favor Trump. Read the Mueler Report.

Go talk to your government about focusing on the Pacific.

Trump is not stopping the war. Putin has escalated since Trump took office. Trump is going to embarrass us again Monday.

Hertling was a great commander. He has his right to free speech in retirement and is safe from retaliation by Trump.

They are not "effeminate" at all, as you opined, but you can try.

They have been mass producing ammo for more than a year.
