OH HELL NO!

Not many know this but being a former Marine, it is the only Branch of the Military which exclusively answers to the President, NOT Congress or Politicians. Research it yourself.

when you realize that most of the US Military officer corps are merely a social-engineering, statist, DC bureaucrats, no different from HHS, Interior, or Dept of Education or any other government office - the mindset is completely understandable

There's also this: "He has also criticized European countries for being too welcoming to "Muslim invaders."

I'm a-thinkin' this MacGregor guy just likes to say stuff to see what happens.

************

He not. He’s retired.
The marine corps won’t be disbanded. Too many USMC vets for that to happen.

In other words, he’d like to do away with the only branch that directly answers to POTUS and is limited Constitutionally to Corps strength. That limitation is not imposed on the other services.

It isn’t about saving money. It’s about weakening the US and eventually bringing it down.

That is what ALL of this is about.

"Most of today's Marine force consists of airmobile light infantry," Macgregor wrote.

And what in the seven gates of hell is wrong with Air-Mobile Light Infantry?

Try an expirement, see how long it takes to call up, equip, pack up, move, deploy and make battleworthy...

An Air Mobile Light Infantry Battalion

or

Stryker Battalion

Of course the Marine Corps is superfluous, if your goal is to lose wars.
