Rogan confuses the value of institutional knowledge with the self-appointed, assumption of power beyond that of our elected officials.

It's not an uncommon confusion. Many people don't value that knowledge and experience. "Draining the swamp" could mean losing that institutional know-how. Rogan is wrong in going too far, but so do many people on the other side.

You don't rid the army of grunts. You change out the generals who shape the institution and tell the enlisted how far, and where to march.
