Is that a yes or no?

He didn't resign, he retired. There's a big difference. The dirty little secret is that the careers of bird col's who know they can't make general are pretty much over. Maybe it's in the UCMJ or maybe not but they should know enough not to insult the President of the United States when it's over.

 

[Soupnazi630]

Sorry....I'm not familiar with your MAGA bumpkin acronym horseshit.

That is an antifa acronym you stupid trump lover

It was a real thing look it up you chicken hawk fraud

 

[Soupnazi630]

There is no "ANTIFA", fucktard.

The BLM protesters didn't try to steal an election....they were protesting something REAL -- police brutality.

You MAGA cry baby pussies protested something FAKE on Jan 6 -- the 2020 "stolen" election. Because you Nazis can't accept losing an election.

******* idiots.

Yes there is you retarded chicken hawk coward'

TRhey were protesting over a lie. Yes they did steal an election at CHAZ/CHOP

You are the biggest coward and lying sack of trump LICKING trash on this forum

 

[ThisIsMe]

On bullshit charges, simp. You haven't seen the evidence used against Comey. Neither have I.

You are simply an idiot.

ok, so we agree that comey was indicted on "some" charges, whether or not they were trumped up or not. My point was, they are not going after this colonel simply for resigning. He didnt do anything wrong

And your point makes no sense.....Comey did nothing wrong, either. That's why not a single DOJ attorney would file charges against him.

Why should he give that up, when Trump was only president for 5 of his 24 years in the service?

Idiot.

He was accused of obstructing justice.


You're trying really hard to make a case that trump is going to go after this guy, hes probably not even on trumps radar

Idiot.

Anyone can retire from the military... that's easy... now let him put some teeth into it and quit his retirement...

In a Washington Post Op-Ed today, Col Doug Krugman explains why he recently retired from the Marine Corps after 24 years.

Pardoning of the Jan 6 defendants had a lot to do with it. --

On Sept. 30, at an unprecedented gathering of senior military leadership, President Donald Trump said, “If you don’t like what I’m saying, you can leave the room — of course, there goes your rank, there goes your future.” I wasn’t invited to be in the room that day, and I had decided months earlier that I had to leave. By coincidence, Sept. 30 was my last day as a colonel in the United States Marine Corps. I gave up my career out of concern for our country’s future.

United States military officers take an oath to defend the Constitution without mental reservation or purpose of evasion. I swore or repeated that oath under five presidents, starting with former president Bill Clinton. I risked my life for it, serving as an infantry officer in two wars. I watched Marines die for it.

No commander in chief is perfect. President Clinton’s moral failures are well known. President George W. Bush’s invasion of Iraq might be one of the worst errors in U.S. history. All recent presidents share responsibility for our failure in Afghanistan. I continued to serve despite all that because I believed the Constitution brought the country more success than failure, and I believed our presidents took their oaths to it seriously.

With President Trump, I no longer believe that. During his first term, his actions became increasingly difficult for me to justify, culminating with the Jan. 6 attack on Congress as it tried to execute its duties. I hoped he had learned from those errors, but it only took a few days of his second term for me to realize he had not. I could not swear without reservation to follow a commander in chief who seemed so willing to disregard the Constitution.

My departure was not about policy disagreements, which exist in every administration. President Trump won in 2024 and has the right to implement his policies within the law.

My first reservations were about promises and actions that I thought were morally wrong even if they were possibly legal. The Constitution gives the president the power to pardon, but pardoning roughly 1,600 of those who tried to violently overthrow the results of an election didn’t help defend the Constitution. Likewise, I didn’t see it as moral to deny refuge to Afghans who risked their lives to support us, which he did on Jan. 22. Ignoring reality to take advantage of vague laws to assume emergency powers is also immoral. For those who believe in honoring their word, breaking promises our country has made — including some trade agreements President Trump made himself — is not moral. These are not the kinds of actions that I’m willing to risk my life to defend.

Worse than immorality, however, has been President Trump’s willingness to disregard the law and Constitution to achieve his goals. When asked in May about the Fifth Amendment requirements for due process and if he needed to uphold the Constitution as president, the first words out of his mouth were “I don’t know.”

This month, National Guard officers received orders from the defense secretary that their governors opposed. A federal judge intervened, citing the lack of apparent emergency and the 10th Amendment. Those commanders and units were stuck between competing orders with no clear answer. When the president’s orders push or cross legal limits and put commanders in these situations, cohesion within our military is at risk.

President Trump’s description of Portland as a “war zone” is as fantastical as his belief that the June protests in a few blocks of Los Angeles would somehow “obliterate” the massive city of nearly 4 million. In both cases, his words had little connection to reality. Every dubious basis he gives for an order creates more room for doubt, more room for reservations and more threats to our unity.

Was he too fat?

He had competent White House leadership for the majority of his military service. Your MAGA bumpkin strawman argument is just meaningless.

Only a hopeless MAGA bumpkin simp such as yourself would ask this question and believe it's a serious question.

It is a serious question. You're just deflecting and trolling.

It's not serious, bumpkin. You're dirt stupid.

A simple google search will answer your question.

 

[todd down under]

He didn't have to, dummy. He probably made that decision a few months ago when he saw what a disaster Trump's second term was going to be.

In fact, he explained that in his Op-Ed, dipshit.

Probably is not reality, sugar plum
