Why military men pushing back on Trump is an 'extraordinary' event in American democracy
Perhaps the starkest warning came from retired general John Allen, who warned in Foreign Policy magazine that this might be the beginning of the end of American democracy.
An ex-chairman of the joint chiefs, retired navy admiral Mike Mullen, wrote in the Atlantic magazine that he was "sickened" by the use of force on protesters before a Trump photo op in Washington.
Trump's first defence secretary, retired general James Mattis, said he was "angry and appalled," and cast his former boss as a menace to the constitutional order.
Tienanmen Square in China and Lafayette Square in the U.S.A - no difference.
Less than four years of Trump and this is what you have:
110,000 Americans dead
40 Million Americans unemployed (That is near 25% more people than there are in the entirety of Canada)
Black minorities are seen losing their life on the streets
Riots are breaking out throughout their country.
Remove Trump from office NOW before he burns down the entire country.
