I agree with the judge’s decision but I don’t find Trump’s comments about Bergdahl to be disappointing like the judge did. It was a campaign issue, Trump voiced his opinion, and he voiced them as an unelected citizen not in the chain of command of Bergdahl.

Bergdahl already was a national issue and had been for a long time.

Although I never ran afoul of the UCMJ in my stellar Army career (amazingly enough),I've done some reading about it and courts-martial in recent times.Although the judge may reject the motion regarding DJT's remarks it seems distinctly possible to me that an appeals court (and courts-martial can be appealed all the way up to SCOTUS) will accept the motion.

Just a hunch on my part...surely not based on any training in the law.

Bergdahl was made a political issue the moment his former Commander-in-Chief let 5 Taliban hoodlum terrorist leaders walk free from Guantanamo Bay Prison in exchange for his release.

Beware!...this judge didn't HAVE to throw in his personal opinion that the Trump's comments were "disturbing and disappointing".

It was a signal to a potential jury and to affect public opinion.

The judge's words themselves are prejudicial and can have an effect on a potential jury pool.

My feeling is that the judge has his mind made up already to STICK IT TO PRESIDENT TRUMP...and he will even stoop to influence the public's mind as well as potential jurors in order to do so.

The "hidden state" exists in the judiciary, not only the executive and legislative branches.

Is this a MILITARY trial?

Trump should FIRE this ‘judge’ for those comments. He is the commander-in-chief and he just publicly questioned his authority.

plus he’s a pu$$y and does not deserve to have a military
career

>> The judge stated that although Trump’s remarks were “disturbing and disappointing,”

Really? Seems this judge is having a problem with impartiality.
