>Norris did bring up one good point. Our Military needs to know if they have a legal Commander in Chief. If they don’t, they will not follow his lead.
Shouldn’t is more accurate. Officers (both NCO and Commissioned) derive their authority from the president, who derives his authority from the Constitution, for it is the Constitution that names him as Commander In Chief. If he is not eligible by the Constitution, then he has absolutely no right to hold the position as Commander In Chief... and in fact, his refusal to show that he is indeed qualified is disturbing.
What if a “General” came on to post and was looking around asking questions? ... It could be perfectly legitimate, or it could be someone impersonating an officer, and possibly trying to get intel. In other words, just because someone claims to be in such and such a position does NOT mean that they are.
The intel piece is what scares me the most. The uncomfortable poking and prying that takes place before a security clearance is granted has totally been ignored in this case.
He is, the weakest link.
