Gen. Mark Milley, the outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said he will take "appropriate measures" to protect himself and his family after the twice-impeached one-termer suggested that he is guilty of treason, and said he should be executed. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg was interviewed on Inside with Jen Psaki, and he calmly and nicely called out Donald Trump over his disdain for the military. Buttigieg is like the most polite sledgehammer ever.
"The level of disrespect for the American military, not to mention for the general, is both shocking and not shocking," Buttigieg said. "I mean, look, this is part of a lifelong pattern with the former president that I would argue was first displayed when he faked a disability in order to avoid having to go to Vietnam and allowed, I assume, some working-class person to go in his place, and has continued ever since."
"Made a name for himself by basically saying that he did not respect John McCain because he was a war hero," he continued. "And look, a lot of this, obviously, is to get attention, and you hesitate to reward that. On the other hand, we do, in fact, still have some boundaries that matter in this country."
"And one of them is that our regard for the military and our respect for the military is nonpartisan, it's nonpolitical, and it's universal," he said. "And that is especially important because that's part of how the military does their job."
