Just before the election, he reminded Trump administration that all this nonsense is not going to dwell anywhere in the military: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMaI1Hg8dl8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMaI1Hg8dl8
- vlovich123 6y agoThe imagery of that photo op is more powerful than the apology that wasn't heard by as many people. Actions need to line up with words. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt though. Thanks for the context.
- systemvoltage 6y agoActions did line with words dude.
- vlovich123 6y agoThe earliest note of an apology I can find was June 11th. It took Mike Milley 5 days to realize he'd been lied to about the purpose of him following Trump? I could see this being political where he was hoping it would blow over quickly & he wouldn't be dragged in, but only apologizing when it didn't. That's politicking though & I would hope that military generals, in an age of misinformation, are proactive about correcting the record. Another interpretation is that he was 100% on board with the President's plan & miscalculated the impact it would have on him.
