Trump’s court-martial plan could “undermine” the military

The Trump transition team is compiling a list of senior current and former U.S. military officers who were directly involved in the withdrawal from Afghanistan and exploring whether they could be court-martialed for their involvement, according to a U.S. official and a person familiar with the plan. MSNBC senior political contributor Matthew Dowd tells Rev. Al that this would "undermine our ability in the world to exercise our military power."

And Trump had the unmitigated NERVE to call Kamala Harris 'Comrade'. What a disgusting man and all that voted for him are disgusting as well. That includes my brother, aunt, and her sons and I told them all that to their faces.
