Hard to find leaders of character when those at the top are seeking sycophants borne of the manosphere. Trump and Hegseth got their leadership hints from podcasts, apparently.

>Rep. Rich McCormick (R-Ga.) told Newsmax’s Ed Henry that he “would look into it immediately” as to why the four-star general was fired.
>“I’ve never heard him say anything contrary to what the president’s trying to achieve,” McCormick said. “I thought he’s done a really good job getting the Army ready for war. So, I’d like to hear more because that’s concerning to me.”
Are we going to find out in a book after Trump is out of office that he was fired for refusing to consider using WMD in Iran?

Sorry! Trump only has adulterers, racists, pedophiles, TERFS and drunk pieces of shit in his bag.

How awful it must be to serve your country for 40 years only to be fired by a major with an alcohol problem.

Didn’t most of the military vote for the bone-spurs clown?

The Army isn’t and won’t be getting „leadership of character“ from their current Commander-in-Chief or their Secretary of Defense.

That’s not what was elected.

The Senate GOP are total failures. Sucking up to a psychotic maniac and approving these morons who were total failures in life for these top positions. The GOP in Congress should all be fired this election. It would not be this bad if it were not for their failure to do their damn jobs.

Corporate media won’t even report it. They’re terrified it might offend grandpa.

There’s a character in the white house, and one in the pentagon.

So they did accomplish regime change of a sort.

Yeah and The Rolling Stones once said „You Can’t Always Get What You Want.“ Of course, they’re British and they have the National Health Service so if they try, sometimes *they* get what they need

There are some parents completely in the dark that those fired generals saved them a house visit from a chaplain. 🫡🇺🇸 #GodBlessAmerica

Hegseth is certainly a character.

The United States needs leaders of conscience, rather than what we have now.

Captain „Bone Spurs“ has never cared about our troops.
> „Sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That’s the way it is. Likely be more.”
This was Trump’s response to service members being killed in action as a consequence of his war of *choice.*
And as the death toll rises, there are big indications that Trump plans to put boots on the ground as he sends more troops to the region and as he demands more funding for operation epic failure.
What’s *sad* is that Trump’s groveling supporters will continue to implicitly defend him and his needless foreign war.
But Trump does not care about the cost, casualties and repercussions of this war outside of how it all impacts his ratings.
Trump has no sympathy for our troops and their families. He’s even insulted our fallen soldiers on multiple occasions.
**His Policies Have Made Life More Challenging For Veterans At Home:**
Let’s start with the Trump administration deporting veterans and the massive VA workforce reductions, funding gaps, and operational disruptions that have led to things like cancelled contracts, program slowdowns and delayed delivery of care/claims.
Trump and house Republicans also backed a CR that zeroed out funding for the Toxic Exposure Fund (TEF), which covers healthcare costs for troops exposed to toxic substances like burn pits.
The VA was one of many agencies hit hard by Trump’s layoffs. Employees received this cruel notice:
> „You have not demonstrated that your further employment at the Agency would be in the public interest.“
Thousands of veterans/VA staff members lost their jobs.
VA layoffs included nurses, doctors, mental health professionals and claims processors; meaning longer wait times for Veterans, significantly reduced outreach, processing backlogs, less access to benefits, and even interruptions in medical screenings.
These cuts also put veterans‘ medical care at risk by interrupting life saving cancer trials; by limiting their access to care, and by ending treatment oversight.
Cuts/hiring freezes have also disrupted mental health services for veterans; including lay offs of Crisis Line staff who offer suicide‑prevention resources to them.
Trump has also canceled contracts supporting homeless veterans.
He ended the mortgage assistance program that helped save tens of thousands of their homes.
Then there’s his „warrior dividend“ check in the amount of $1776. Another obvious publicity gimmick.
These funds came from an already‑approved housing allowance supplement for veterans.
The money was just redirected and rebranded for political purposes.
**Trump Has Repeatedly Disrespected Our Veterans:**
He referred to veterans killed in action as „suckers“ and „losers“ and refused to visit a cemetery where American soldiers are buried because it was „filled with losers.“
He insulted POWs and John Mccain when he said, „I prefer people who weren’t captured.“
He downplayed traumatic brain injuries that dozens of military personnel suffered from in Iraq as a result of his provocations in the Middle East.
He minimized the significance of the Medal of Honor.
He’s repeatedly insulted our distinguished military leaders.
Trump’s „Department of War“ fired high ranking, black and female military officials with illustrious careers, only to replace them with far less qualified (white) loyalists. So much for „merit.“
His behavior at the Arlington National cemetery during his election campaign was extremely disrespectful.
Trump was so desperate for a photo op that him and his staff violated long standing rules meant to honor and respect fallen soldiers and their families. They even got into a physical altercation with cemetery staff, and all for the sake of politicizing a national shrine.
Trump doesn’t care about veterans. He cares about demonstrating his strength through his unbridled use of themilitary. He cares far more about his ratings than the lives of our soldiers.

None of these people resigned instead of accepting orders for striking Iran and innocent people in boats across the Caribbean.
Empty words.

So, the opposite of Trump and Hegseth?
