This really isnt that big of a deal. After all, tRump knows more than the generals. I'm sure that tRump can draw from his previous military experience and get by. Wait! tRump avoided service due to his life-threatening case of bone spurs.

He could always draw from his personal Vietnam experience. Wait! tRump said his personal Vietnam was trying to avoid an STD chasing 'tail" in NYC.

tRump used to say that he loved "The Generals". I bet that he doesnt feel that way anymore....lol

I see. Now it's the Generals that are subpar. Funny how these are the SAME Generals that tRump was praising not too long ago. Maybe it isnt the Generals after all. Maybe the Generals just recognize leadership incompetence when they see it......)

He gave them lip service only, he’s never respected them, he always thought and still thinks he knows more than the generals. He always believes he is the smartest person in the room, but the draperies are actually smarter than Trump.

LOL more Trump cult delusion. So suddenly Mattis was a bad General? McRaven sucked? Michael Hayden was hack? McChrystal was incompetent? James Stavridis didn't know what he was doing? Colin Powell was a piss poor general? How long do you want me to go on with this? They are all bad, and Trump is a hero. Right. Too funny.

You noticed that, too! It’s shocking how many things use to matter to the moralistic Republicans that no longer matter.
 
Intelligence is accepting everything Trump says and does. Everything your education and experience has taught you is gone. If Trump says it, it is right.

I have been following and talking about the decline of the officer quality for 30 years, this is not about Trump.

They have improved in quality. Because of GWB and Trump, they have learned how to be even more political.

Obama politicized the Defense Department just as he did the Justice Department....I mean they were going that way anyways.....becoming corrupt and incompetent at their day jobs....but Obama really pushed it through.

You have fingered the wrong perps.

Yeah...….apparently he graduated from the same west point class that JOE BIDEN and BARRY SORETORO graduated from. :laugh: But there is more....Mr. Trump was actually a CADET at a Military Academy....unlike Barry who toked his way through school on the tax payer's dime or Biden who was deferred from Military Service with a Draft Number declaring he was unfit to serve because of severe Asthma.

Biden's draft status was 1-A.....until his number came up. After 7 years of deferment while in school...…...his status was 1-A. Sum-Bitch...…….he removed himself from the draft pool right at the height of the Viet Nam War when the US was experiencing a drastic rise in Casualties.....1967....Biden's number was coming up in 1968 and he had no more college deferments. Again.....Sum Bitch......he was reclassified as unfit because of Asthma.

How's that for trigging? Do you really assume that someone who was to afraid to serve in combat (China Joe) is any smarter than someone who has actually had MILITARY TRAINING.....he graduated in 1964 (Trump)

Yeah...…….the Greatest Depression since the Great Depression? Really? Can you count to 2.5 Million? The most new jobs added in a single month in US HISTORY.

:bigthink:

Here is a place for you to start:

So are today’s officers up to the task? In new research, Brookings’ Michael Klein and Tufts University’s Matthew Cancian—a former Marine officer who served in Afghanistan—take a closer look at this question and uncover a troubling pattern.

After analyzing test scores of 46,000 officers who took the Marine Corps’ required General Classification Test (GCT), Klein and Cancian find that the quality of officers in the Marines, as measured by those test scores, has steadily and significantly declined over the last 34 years

Tell us about Trump's military ahievements, Ralph. He graduated from military school (you won't be able to say anything about his record, I understand that, because he threatened the law on anyone who revealed his grades).

Anyway, there he was: an 18-year-old with MILITARY TRAINING, raring to go serve his country. And then ...?
