Why Trump Wants His Own Generals

“According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, ‘The Trump transition team is considering a draft executive order that establishes a ‘warrior board’ of retired senior military personnel with the power to review three- and four-star officers and to recommend removals of any deemed unfit for leadership.’ The article cites Trump’s vow to fire ‘woke generals’ — that is, generals who are reputed to be promoting ‘diversity’ in the military at the expense of readiness. There is another possibility, however, one that is much more discomforting — that Trump is consolidating his power as president and knows that a loyal military establishment will solidify and reinforce that consolidation of power.” (11/15/24)
