Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley addressed President Biden's age in a recent 60 Minutes interview.
The president's age, along with that of former President Donald Trump, have become points of concern for many ahead of the 2024 election. Mr. Biden is now 80 and Trump, the current frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination, is 77. Political opponents and even some allies have portrayed them as too old to be president.
"I didn't comment on the former president's mental health, physical health and I'm not going to comment on the current president's mental health or physical health. I think that's highly inappropriate for the senior officer of the United States military to do that," Milley said.
Milley was nominated to be chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff by Trump and served in the role under Biden until he left office at the end of September.
Milley, in his role as the nation's highest ranking military officer, regularly met with Mr. Biden. He said the president was "fine" each time.
"How people interpret that is up to them, but I engage with him frequently and alert, sound, does his homework, reads the papers, reads all the read-ahead material. And he's very, very engaging in issues of very serious matters of war and peace and life and death," Milley said. "So if the American people are worried about an individual who is, you know, someone who's making decisions of war and peace and has access to, you know, makes the decisions of nuclear weapons and that sort of thing, I think they can rest easy."

Can Milley count that high?
ESAD milly
Dead On
That clown pig thinks that a senile cretin in control of the nuclear weapons is a good thing?
Can not possibly be. He was personally chosen by president Trump. Only the best he’s said many times.
You beat me to it. Milley has spoken between the lines and sideways about the Presidency, regardless of which party is in office, for years. This makes all the senior military leadership look bad for it.
Just seeing that name makes me angry!
His contempt for Trump, his Commander in Chief, was inexcusable.
He is also scheduled to testify against Trump in the classified documents case.
What a lying, used douche bag:
he first says it’s “highly inappropriate for the senior officer of the United States military” to comment on a question of the president’s mental condition, then affirms that Biteme was “fine” whenever he met with him.
The headline is “age”. But the body is “mental and physical health”.
we need to be honest in our own headlines if we expect it in others.
And I agree. It is not the place for a military man to publicly comment on the mental or physical health of an elected official. That is for civilians to do.
Well, so is going behind the Commander In Chief's back to a sworn enemy to fill them in on what you think is going on. So, being "highly inappropriate" never stopped you before, never mind outright treason.
If we still lived in a Constitutional Republic, you stinking skunk Milley, you would have been fairly tried, justifiably convicted, and punished to the fullest extent of the law that the crime of Treason allows.
So. Milley can’t/won’t say anything because he covets his position of unearned power.
It is "highly inappropriate" to threaten to go behind his Commander-in-Chief (at the time) and offer US intelligence to a MAJOR enemy commander.
As soon as the info became public Milley should have had all rank removed, penson terminated, TS clearance revoked, stripped to his skivvies, and booted onto Pennsylvania Av. after notifying all non-prog media.
I would want a tshirt with THAT little snapshot on it.
Oh, and send a link for the Youtube video to Xi.
