That is just because you have no general of the Napoleonic size.

2020-11-19 18:12:02 UTC  

Such a general would have assumed command long time ago.

2020-11-19 18:12:27 UTC  

(note the pun?)

2020-11-19 18:12:37 UTC  

Generally military members aren't fond of executive military commanders.

2020-11-19 18:12:44 UTC  

They likely would give them the middle finger.

2020-11-19 18:12:52 UTC  

Everyone loved Nappy.

2020-11-19 18:13:18 UTC  

exept the brits, russians, preussians and italians.

2020-11-19 18:13:30 UTC  

Ill rephrase. France loved Nappy.

2020-11-19 18:13:56 UTC  

We might not notice an agenda after the 4 year chaos of revolving door employment practices of this administration.

2020-11-19 18:14:06 UTC  

If you had an american General whos name was known and loved by serviceman and civilan alike, I would think a Nappy was in the coming.

@Zuluzeit "If we dont know what we are doing, neither does the enemy."

2020-11-19 18:14:51 UTC  

Yeah we don't have anyone like that. Perhaps a coalition tho.

2020-11-19 18:15:21 UTC  

I do belive Trumps job was to play Nixon mk II.

2020-11-19 18:15:42 UTC  

Nixon played the mad man very well. It scared the crap out of the russians, and they never recovered from what he was able to pull them into.

2020-11-19 18:16:03 UTC  

Man man strategy for the 2010s would be The Retarded Man strategy.

2020-11-19 18:16:07 UTC  

@Maw, you just advanced to level 7!

2020-11-19 18:16:40 UTC  

It is also easy to burn paper.

2020-11-19 18:17:09 UTC  

It burns at Fahrenheit 451.

2020-11-19 18:17:46 UTC  

Whoa...

2020-11-19 18:18:38 UTC  

I'm glad I had to re-read that book in college technical writing classes.

2020-11-19 18:18:47 UTC  

It made more sense when I was a bit more mature.

2020-11-19 18:20:05 UTC  

I meant he was going to fire disloyal generals in order to facilitate his own seizure of power btw.

2020-11-19 18:20:42 UTC  

I don't believe he has any authority to fire people not in the executive branch.

2020-11-19 18:21:07 UTC  

He can fire generals all day long, I think.

2020-11-19 18:21:21 UTC  

They don't really have much authority over the military.

2020-11-19 18:21:29 UTC  

They're primarily an advisory role.

2020-11-19 18:21:38 UTC  

JCS has more authority.

2020-11-19 18:21:43 UTC  

But it still isn't much.

2020-11-19 18:22:15 UTC  

Well he can have his people there do it...but I still think he can. Google time.

2020-11-19 18:22:45 UTC  

Congress has the general control over the military.

2020-11-19 18:22:48 UTC  

Pretty sure.

2020-11-19 18:22:51 UTC  

Not the president.

2020-11-19 18:24:46 UTC  

First one on the google search. Duke U.

2020-11-19 18:25:30 UTC  

Rather, some jurispundit published by Duke.

2020-11-19 18:27:06 UTC  

And if there is any question about his supreme authority, we could expect him to not try, of course.

2020-11-19 18:28:01 UTC  

No pattern of behavior or direct proclamation to the contrary or anything. Lol
