I wonder if it’s because Gen. Schwartz said he would never allow his troops to use mustard gas and/or napalm and live rounds against any perceived demonstrators aka “haters”?
Now this dismissal just wouldn’t have anything to go with the color of the General’s skin, would it???
It’s Trump. You’re assuming a thought process took place?
It could be called Grab Your Bush.
As America quietly begins the walk of the dead where nothing will work because Trump is
too paranoid that Obama appointees will leave mean insects around to frighten or disrespect him . . . . . .
Puerile pettiness. The vulgar, NPD ruler wants to “make a statement”. Message received, asshole.
'Must have not gotten down on his knees in honor of Great Leader. Or maybe he’s the wrong color. Want to take bets on what color the new guy will be?
This has to be the brain child of someone in his admin - Flynn perhaps. Highly unlikely that PeePee even knows who Maj. Gen. Errol R. Schwartz is.
So who and why?
Same as the little nutjob in North Korea.
Trump lands in D.C. to a golden shower worthy of his stature.
Hail to the PEEOTUS
This is more like a Bannon move.
Crazy but I’m thinking Russians
Maybe he’ll have his private security force extended like in tin-pot dictatorships soon after in DC and turn the rest of the National Guard back to the States, or maybe he’ll just find a way to privatize the whole National Guard somehow. I wouldn’t put it past him. The guy doesn’t believe he has to follow any rules or norms.
Which shows how absolutely insane and unstable Don is… running around firing people right and left without THINKING! Got can Don get any more stupid or is this dementia???
This is one of those things that typically happen when a coup is in progress (even if Orange may technically have power to remove those people – that’s not the point).
Alienate the media ready and willing to kiss ass: check.
Alienate the intelligence community ready and willing to kiss ass: check.
Alienate the military ready and willing to kiss ass: check.
I’m thinking there’s a pattern developing here.
Who knows? Seems like Trump’s entire team is flying by the seat of its pants. We get daily reports of some aspect they were supposed to have covered, but were unaware it even existed much less was their responsibility. Jeebus, you’d think someone would have the brains to check the notes from the previous shindig. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone requested a list of all the people they’d be able to fire at 12:01 and said “Make it so!” without any research whatsoever.
Christ. This is some third-world banana republic nonsense.
Trump’s idea of draining the swamp? Did Schwartz actually do or say something to piss off (or on) Trump? Or is this just the first public act to show supreme authoritarian dominance to take place immediately after the inauguration? You know, to get people thinking straight. WTF?!
