Refusing to violate the constitution
mardi 16 juin 2020 à 02:00The US military has a strong tradition of refusing to obey orders that violate the constitution, going back to the founders of the country. If the conman ordered the military to intervene in politics, there is a good chance generals would refuse.
I interpret General Milley's apology for walking with the conman to his church steps photo op as a reminder that generals are very much aware of this aspect of their duty.
