Ex-President Donald Trump complained to White House Chief of Staff John Kelly that American generals were not as loyal as he believed German generals were to Adolph Hitler, a new report says.

The New Yorker article says Trump soured on Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley after he resisted having the military respond to protests in response to the murder of George Floyd.

Trump also reportedly showed distaste for the idea of injured armed services members participating in a huge military parade that he wanted in Washington on Independence Day.


"You f----ing generals, why can't you be like the German generals?" Trump asked Kelly, a retired Marine Corps general, according to an excerpt published online Monday in The New Yorker of the upcoming book "The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021."

"Which generals?" Kelly replied.

"The German generals in World War II," Trump responded.

"General Milley wrote that Mr. Trump did not honor those who had fought against fascism and the Nazis during World War II."

"It's now obvious to me that you don't understand that world order," Milley wrote in the letter, as reported. "You don't understand what the war was all about. In fact, you subscribe to many of the principles that we fought against. And I cannot be a party to that."

Trump while president also reportedly showed distaste for the idea of injured armed services members, including those in wheelchairs and missing limbs, participating in a huge military parade that he wanted in Washington on Independence Day.

"Look, I don't want any wounded guys in the parade," Trump told Kelly, whose own son was killed in combat in Afghanistan, according to the article.
 
That parade never came to fruition after retired generals such as his then-Defense Secretary James Mattis and Air Force General Paul Selva, the then-vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, strongly resisted the idea, which would have cost millions of dollars and damaged Washington's streets.

"I'd rather swallow acid," Mattis said at the time, according to the excerpt.

And when Kelly sarcastically told Trump that Selva was going to organize the parade, the president, not realizing it was a joke, asked Selva what he thought of that plan.

"I didn't grow up in the United States, I actually grew up in Portugal," Selva said, according to the excerpt. "Portugal was a dictatorship —and parades were about showing the people who had the guns. And in this country, we don't do that."

"It's what dictators do," Selva said.

The Germans lost the second world war largely do to the Bavarian corporal, he decided to declare war on the US and to invade Russia too, Hitler knew more than all the generals, sounds familiar?!! The German generals waited to long to kill him, they should have killed him right after the Stalingrad defeat, the Germans lost an entire Army in that battle?!!
