Acting Navy Secretary Thomas Modly has resigned amid controversy over his criticism of a fired captain who raised alarms about the coronavirus on his ship, according to CNN and Politico.
Prediction: they’ll leave him dangling for several days while imPotus publicly muses about whether he should give him a thumbs up or down. It’ll be down, of course.
Another of the most talented, smart, genius employees of the chief genius in charge heads out the door. I guess he wanted to spend more time with his family??
Good riddance to a piece of excrement. So glad Tommy Modly did not get past the position as Acting Navy Secretary. Modly sounded like a foam-mouthed rabid dog from Abu Ghraib in that speech. Totally unhinged and demented comic-book villain. Totally unnecessary, uncalled-for stupidity.
From Trump’s cowardly perspective, this will be the perfect outcome. He got rid of Captain Crozier for daring to imply things weren’t being handled perfectly, and he still gets to shit-can Modly for the decision, since it proved unpopular. All without the fact Trump essentially demanded the firing appearing in many stories, leaving him untouched.
This walking talking penis served five years or so in the navy and conveniently retired just before the first gulf war. Maybe he had bonespurs? Typical repug.
