Navy Secretary: If Trump Rolls Back Female Integration, There Will Be Consequences
dailycaller.com ^ | 12/31/16 | Jonah Bennett

Posted on 12/31/2016 9:48:21 AM PST by ColdOne

Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus said recently in a December interview that while GOP President-elect Donald Trump can roll back social change in the military, doing so will make the force weaker.

Mabus, who has served in the position longer than anyone since World War I, has overseen significant social changes in the military and caused a lot of consternation in the process. Now, in a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Post, he’s warning that if Trump rolls back social change in the military, he should admit that it will damage the force.

“You make the decisions you think are right, right now, regardless what you think is going to happen in the future,” Mabus said. “But we are stronger because of this integration. That is undeniably true. So, if it gets rolled back, you’re weakening the United States military. You’re weakening the Navy. You’re weakening the Marine Corps. If that’s what you want to do, okay. But you have to be honest about it.”

That's right up there with AGW being settled science - figments of liberal imagination.

Has Mabus even piloted a row boat?

When you tell Gay Ray to pack his sh!t, he interprets is very differently than you and I.

No.

Search on keyword “mabus” shows how true that “no” (NO!!! Can you idiots hear us now?) has been over time.

“We are stronger because of this integration. That is undeniably true.”

This is just ridiculous & as unlikely as it seems l hope Trump brings back don’t ask tell at the very least. The destruction of the US military is the most non reported story of Obongo’s reign.
