Of course that is not the issue. Our Constitution provides a means to get rid of a President who violates the Constititution. It is called impeachment and it is carried out by the legislative branch that represents the people. I do not want the military acting as the guardians of our Constitution by seizing power or countermanding orders.
I have taken that oath twice. It is a personal one and I do not have the right to impose my views on my subordinates. I will not follow any order blindly. I will resign before carrying out any unlawful or immoral order, but it remains a personal decision.
You seem to place more reliance on the judgment of the military than you do the people and their elected representatives. Your ignorance is only exceeded by your arrogance. God help us from "citizens" like you who do not understand our Constitution and the foundation of our government.
Your statements regarding resigning rather than countermanding an illegal order reminds me of those who say “I don’t believe in abortion because it’s murder, but I don’t believe I should impose my will on anyone else”. You would not carry out the illegal order, but you would abet it by standing idly by, after you resign.
Illogical.
As I have repeatedly said - and let me stress this once again - this situation arises ONLY when illegal orders are given.
I’m sorry you and I disagree so strongly that you feel compelled to be insulting and demeaning. Feel free to continue, although I will likely not respond hereafter. It is obvious we cannot have a discussion without your oozing arrogance and condescension, so I’ll not waste my time.
