Tom Nichols:
"Trump was not acquainted with Rommel," or with the fact that Hitler's generals tried to kill him.
Honestly, it's almost something of an achievement to be this incredibly stupid.
Please read.
The Atlantic:
“I need the kind of generals that Hitler had”: Trump’s obsession with dictators and disdain for America’s military are deepening,

Veterans For Responsible Leadership:
Vanessa Guillén deserved so much more in life than what was taken from her.
She deserved so much more in death than Trump as her Commander-in-Chief:
“It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” [Trump] turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows: “Don’t pay it!”
@Bix But if she had been a white male?
Trump showing his hatred again against people with darker skin.
As a vet, without minorities, there is no military.
@Bix He would love to force minorities back into noncombat positions in the military: janitors and cooks, mechanics.
@Bix F**king infuriating.
This is an example of why I have an Army veteran yard sign next to my Harris 2024 sign.
The # 1 reason why I hate MAGA voters is because they are traitors to our Constitution and to our military.
The Atlantic:
Trump volunteered to pay for the funeral of a murdered soldier.
But when the bill came, he became angry. “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a f--king Mexican!” He turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and issued an order: “Don’t pay it!”
