I thought McChrystal was one of us; obviously he isn't.

He reminds me of General Jack D. Ripper. (As well as all the terrible bosses I ever had.)

McChrystal took a bad situation in Afghanistan and made it much worse. This guy was absolutely terrible. For a fictionalized (yet all too true) look into what a CF his reign at ISAF was, check out the Netflix movie “War Machine” (all names changed in the film).

Even though the movie is brutal against McChrystal (no idea how to apply large conventional forces against such an amorphous threat) and Obama (completely disengaged from his handpicked general), it still misses several key points as to how ineffective and dangerous McChrystal’s time was over there.

He wants to call Trump “immoral”? I’d say hamstringing your Soldiers and Marines from being able to defend themselves by going along with ridiculous rules of engagement, thus leading to many preventable deaths of our people, was highly immoral, too.

Stanley McC, has no clue how be a Gen Officer in the Army; if he had real balls he’d have said lot of bad crap about Obama...if he feels so strongly about President Trump why doesn’t he run for office.......he also should have resigned while on Active duty...now he just wants a CNN gig...

McChrystal has gone crazy from a career of drinking his own bath water.

Another self hating veteran who was an Obama General and dead silent as Obama pushed through the left wing social experiments that are now destroying military cohesion.

Stanley is one of Obama’s boys.

Don’t forget these retired Generals can still be court martialed for disparaging the commander in chief. All of their commisions are for life and they can be returned to active duty pending outcome of their trials. I think the President should consider trying one of these turncoats as a message to the others. We have one Commander in Chief and if they don’t like his policies they are free to vote for whoever they want but they are not free to violate the code of military conduct.

No surprise from an obama-era 4 star who heads up an ultra liberal academic institution. He’d be fired if he said anything supportive of Trump.

He was never one of us.

So says the guy (McChrystal) whose big idea is to draft your DAUGHTERS and sons, wartime or not, and impose involuntary so-called: “national service”itude. All glory and worship to the deep state may it aggregate and magnify all power, knowledge and majesty in the universe forever!
