Respect is earned, not demanded.
They believe that ordering the military that they cannot disrespect Biden over the Afghanistan situation, this silence will be read as RESPECT of Biden.
They are attempting to create a situation based on a big lie.
Biden is NOT respected. He earned all the disrespect he is now receiving. He is counting on all the silence to be offered as proof of the respect his military is giving him.
One hundred twenty-four retired admirals and generals signed a letter questioning the validity of the 2020 election and U.S. President Joe Biden’s mental acuity. Is DOD going to go after these gentleman? Only commissioned officers retired are subject to the UCMJ for life and they have to do something really really bad to disgrace the uniform to be court martialed in retirement. This is nothing more than Joe Bite me going after talking heads on TV and media and if this government ever attempted to go after anyone for calling Biden a fool they will reap such a back lash so quickly the administration would fall.
That word. That word. Disrespect really is a word, according to the OED. it’s been around since the 1600’s. It’s not a nouveau word originating in the ghetto. Not all grammarians like it though.
” The trend I’m seeing is that poor grammar habits are not only perpetuated into adulthood, but can be treated as an accepted form of speech used on TV or the radio. I suspect that eventually it is accepted as proper grammar . . . The most notable example is the current vernacular use of “disrespect” as a verb, as in “he disrespected me”. Sounds like nails on a blackboard to me, however, it’s all over the media.
