had to look him up since everyone is an “expert” in 2023.
A) He retired asa full-bird Colonel. The best officers rarely become Generals. The best politicians become Generals!
so theres a good sign that he was not a dog and pony style beauraucratic officer.
B) pick through the snippets in wikipedia and you can tell that he’s on our side of history
“President Donald Trump proposed Macgregor as ambassador to Germany, but the Senate blocked the nomination.”
” Trump also controversially appointed him to the board of West Point Academy, his alma mater.[”
“Macgregor opposes diversity or affirmative action programmes in the military, including women serving in combat.”
In other words — he’s a non-conformist to the system and I’m fine with that!
He would make a good National Security Advisor.
I say this because the Senate will block everything else i.e Defense Secretary.
So make him National Security Advisor ...
"programmes"
While he seems to be politically lost in the weeds he was a good soldier.
His unit shot the Iraqi Republican Guard Talwakana Division to pieces in Desert Storm.
I recommend his book “Warriors Rage’’.
He consistently undersells NATO’s ability to bring their weapons to bear against the Russians. He always expected the Russians to prevail. I disagree with him on that point (it’s a stalemated quagmire for both sides). I think he undersells the ability and the willingness of the state, federal and local police to go full blown Watertown, Mass at the drop of a hat. When things were made to appear to be imploding J6, DC went police state and the opposition was cowed rather easily.
He has all the credentials to give him status as “expert” and I agree with many of his positions, but I can’t get past the fact that for the past 16 months he has made dire predictions almost daily of the demise of Ukraine and “victory” for Russia and he has been wrong about nearly all of them. I say nearly because I might have missed one that came true, but none that I have seen. Since feb 22 he has predicted Ukraine would fall to the amazing Russian military. Within days initially and then with regularity did interviews stating it was inevitable and imminent. All wrong, but listening to him and if you have no knowledge of what is happening he sounds credible.
Him and Ritter are two of the biggest “the sky is falling for Ukraine and it is over….”
If interested do a search for Macgregor predictions they are something else
Now look up his predictions for the course of the war in Ukraine.
Especially his repeated calls for the imminent collapse of Ukraine in early 2022 and inability to recognize when the Russians were thrown back at Kiev, Chernigov, Sumy, Kharkov, Nikolaev, Kherson, and forced to abandon Snake island and their efforts to blockade Odessa.
Some people want to believe what he says, but these same people seem incapable of critically analyzing what he says and holding him to account.
When we hold the 2024 elections it won’t change their opinion of what he says, because they still want to believe it even if it never happens.
Truth be told, I’m an expert in two areas! But I’ll have to get back to you when I figure out what they are….. 🤣
The country's in the process of swinging back to 'traditional'... it'll be a breath of fresh air.
And since our side is NOT based on illusion there might not be violence. "Not an illusion" based on the "Bud Light" reality... WE have the numbers - THEY have the PR firms and MSM... Sexual weirdos and Progressives are overplaying their hand and we're allowing the wheels of Justice to grind fine... That's win for our side.
So, we have the win but Macgregor right - it could flip.
