EXPECT THE BEST NOT PERFECT IN OUR LEADERS
–“General Mad dog was against using the military to protect the border, thats why he resigned. Sounds like a woke general to me.”–

We can’t expect people to be perfect, just best. His reasoning for not using the military was rational given the state and number of the forces. We have a tiny military force when we reduce it to combat forces. The US is a logistical and technological monster – unbelievable – but that logistics and tech absorbs almost all the people. The actual infantry is too small for the border, would deplete available forces for use in force projection, and the military doesn’t want to use heavy weapons on mexicans because it would create international issues and discredit both the USA and the US military. So he was right but he handled it badly. And I’m not sure he handled it badly. He resigned. That’s what officers do when they refuse an order they consider foolish, dangerous, immoral, or illegal.
