Mr. Trump, hire Sgt. Charles Martland! (vanity)

me

[Leaning Right]

As most of you know, Sgt. Martland is a decorated Green Beret who is being thrown out of the army for tuning up an Afghan child rapist.

If the army separates him on a Tuesday morning, I would hope he'd have a solid job offer by that Tuesday afternoon.

[Leaning Right]

I know there are folks in Congress looking into Martland's case. But I single out Trump here because he's the one most likely to make this a national issue, one of headline proportions.

Perfect for Homeland Security (before it's phased out) then re-hired as Security Councelor

First job ... Protect the borderS .... here's the check book

Excellent idea, that would bring out the news about him that the drive-bys are ignoring.

I would’t touch this for an election.

There are arguments on both sides of this guy. Sure we think it’s great that he power slammed a pedofile sodomist. But the military called it vigilantism. I don’t know what legal means he had to prosecute the guy. Or why the tribal leaders weren’t prosecuting the guy.

This is not a major issue for the U.S. And without knowing all the facts, I wouldn’t touch this. Trump should have this reviewed after he is elected and after he tosses the gays out of our military leadership.

I agree. I’m looking for the candidate who will hire him as adviser on military affairs and security issues.

The guy that hires him is my guy.

[marron]

Martland talked to the elders before he confronted the guy.

[DannyTN]

Okay, but what was said?

Some conversation in Afghanistan is not what you want to run an election on. I’m sympathetic to the Sgt. But I don’t see where Trump would want to make this a campaign issue.

I like the way you think! That would be great. Only potential problem I see is if there might be some conflict, as a new administration should look at this whole episode as the official cover-up of ongoing war crimes against civilians by one of this administration’s “allies”.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Donald Trump should, after hiring Martland, say: And when I become President, I will have everyone in the DoD who authorized the court-martial of Martland tried for aiding and abetting in children sex slavery and abuse and, upon their convictions, I will have them locked into solitary confinement in federal prison to protect them from the rest of the prison population who would tear them limb from limb.

[marron]

I agree. Everyone in the chain of command who signed off on his prosecution should themselves be court-martialed. They are what is wrong. They have no place in an American uniform.
