The fact that the officer class of the United States is under the control of the Elected Civilian President and that these officers accept the President as the Commander In Chief has been important to the survival of our republic.
That the United States has never suffered a military coup is quite remarkable.
Dont take it lightly that these generals are making noises of disdain to a sitting president. If that disdain were to get traction in active duty junior officers things could get ugly.
The worst thing that could happen is that too many people think that It cant happen here.
