Pentagon Officers: We Quit if Trump Wins
The Daily Beast ^ | 12/16/15 | Nancy A. Youssef

Posted on 12/17/2015 9:08:34 AM PST by mrbinga

The plans of the next president are personal to the officers of the Pentagon, who are threatening to quit if The Donald becomes commander-in-chief.

Republican presidential candidate and business mogul Donald Trump has repeatedly vowed to build up the U.S. military if elected president.

But it is not clear he will have the experienced commanders within the ranks to do it.

In the halls of the Pentagon, there is a different plan afoot for the Trump presidency. Here, officers are privately contemplating what they would do should Trump become their commander-in-chief. And more often than not, they proclaim they will leave.

I was quietly wondering why the military wasn’t turning on Obama...then I thought...pensions! Aha, these same people better quit because Trump is going to fire them if they don’t ...bye bye pensions.

Which is what any decent General officer would have done when Idiot man-child Obama was elected.

I believe Officers are on reserve duty for life so the good ones can be recalled.

Not sure what the rules on that are.

There are no doubt a few who owe Obama for their stars whom will say that. For more than a few advanced to where they are because of his orders, who would never have been so promoted in normal times.

Not really. Obama has purged the officer ranks, and filled them with his minions. I say good riddance. It just means promotions and personal commendations for others.

I suspect Trump will clean the house of the faggots and trannies in the five sided building. No need to resign.

The same crapweasel leaders that happily implemented Obama’s faggotization of the military? Good riddance to them.

I’d be willing to bet high ranking officer promotion board decisions were controlled and vetted by the Obama administration. I have no doubt about that.

Well if they are just fine with Obama and the current situation, they need to be purged anyway. Trust me if they haven’t already got a pension they are going to leave willingly.

This reminds me of all of the Leftists who said that they would leave the country if Bush won the White House in 2000. They stayed, proving that they are full of crap.

Ditto for these guys, though if that’s their opinion I’m sure that Donald will tell them not to let the door hit them in the ass on the way out.

Boo-frickin’-hoo.

If you don’t want to follow the orders of your constitutionally elected commander in chief, then don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

These are the same panty-wastes that want to put women in combat positions. I say good-frickin’-riddance!

If they leave, it’s good riddance to bad rubbish. Besides, the Military leaders who have been “retired” by the Obama administration together with those who resigned because they couldn’t take the destruction of our services any more, will provide any assistance we need to get the Armed Forces back to American Values and not just a play pen for Queers and Women’s libbers.

My thought, exactly. Would they even be missed?
Not to mention that there’s a distinct lack of any identifiction of a single person in this “news” story. Seems odd, with convictions like that.
