Terrible, terrible idea.

If he wants to fire generals, then just fire them. He has every right to do that at his sole discretion.

All using some "board" does is create a quasi-official body that itself will be attacked, and that will delay the entire process. And what happens if the board doesn't want to fire people that should be fired?

Just...fire them.

I mean heres howmit could work. He has this board, and they reviee all current flag officers. They make recommendations and send them to Trump to fire.

it would be near impossible for one person to personally vet what I’m guessing is hundreds if not thousands of officers. I think he’s counting on the fact that as president, its his final decision, not a board.

I’m also wondering if this action is a way to smoke out those who feel the military shouldn’t be under civilian control.

That’s the real problem. The board will probably end up giving cover to a number of Obama and Biden’s woke princes.

Think Trump wants to embarrass them and rightfully so! They need it so badly!

Trump will be very busy and if he is to get everything done that needs to be done, he will need to delegate a lot of this work. Next stop, Justice Department.

I don’t agree. If I were in Trump’s position, I would want advice from experts, like Trusted retired military men.
