Amen to that! And he is only one in the GOP that will.
He offered the national guard, governors refused. He suggested using the military and SecDef went insubordinate and publicly said he didn't agree at the same time a bunch of former generals talked about it being unamerican, I think causing Trump to worry if they would actually follow his orders (I mean, he's been betrayed continuously by everyone around him for years now, including military personnel still in uniform - McMaster and Vindman at the very least). If that ever happened it would be an unprecedented disaster so if he even had a tiny worry about it then he was wise to stand down. And yes, to some extent he talks a big game but sometimes doesn't follow through. But there were some factors that boxed him in a bit.
