I quite literally said this yesterday. He's talking about himself. UNHINGED!

Paul Rieckoff is a good man. He has accomplished tremendous things for veterans.

Always have liked Paul Rieckhoff. Never minces his words. Alway clear and concise!

I am a United States Sailor. I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America, and I will obey the orders of those appointed over me. I represent the fighting spirit of the Navy and those who have gone before me to defend freedom and democracy around the world. I proudly serve my Navy Combat team with honor, courage, and commitment. I am committed to excellence and the fair treatment of all.

So yah. We as soldiers have a choice. If the order is unlawful, we may be ounish for it, but we can oppose it. Many of us opposed his orders, and we will continue to do so if signs show so.

And his followers saying oh he's not really going to do this is delusional. I believe he will given the chance.

We have known this for nine years, yet it does not move the needle for his cult members.

[marilynl]

He definitely is the enemy from within.

[michelletoni]

[sinceslicedbread]

We, the world 🌎 are relying on you America 🇺🇸, to do the right thing.

He is really the enemy within. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[darrelllowe]

I've been saying that very same thing for a while now. Trump is describing himself as the enemy within. He's shown and told us that since forever.

[kathrynshaw]

We, Americans, must do our very best to protect ourselves from foreign operatives for the next 4 years. May God bless us all. It will obviously be a struggle.

[ghost]

Yeah drawing a contrast ! When the majority of his followers are not seeing it it’s worried some. This guy is definitely off his hinges.

[gzus]

That stupid dance was trash decades ago, its even worse now. 😬

[yeshema]

They still have choice... And I hope they use it for the Country they Serve... Instead of the person who hates OUR Country and would destroy the lives of the 99% for the 1%... 😏

Why doesn't JOY REID talk about The 400 Thousand YOUNG AMERICANS that have DIED from FENTANYL in the last 3.5 Years!

[JayGnay]

Can we please just vote and elect Harris in and never hear from from Trump ever again? I am exhausted.

[marcushinton]

Trump is as stable as a two legged horse on a trampoline, but seriously he's dangerous

[ybztdtv]

I'm an American citizen and in my humble opinion there are service people that would follow his orders probably not enough to make a difference but there are those that would follow his orders
