Mark A. Milley is a retired general who served for 40 years in the U.S. Army. He worked under Donald Trump as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the highest military rank in the country.
Now, he's described the former president as a "fascist to the core" and "the most dangerous person to this country."This alarming assessment should serve as a wake-up call for all of us. We must vote for Kamala Harris and other dedicated Democrats who understand the weight of their office and the responsibility to serve the people, not themselves. Sign the pledge now to Vote Blue in the November 2024 elections to stand against fascism!In a chilling revelation from Bob Woodward's forthcoming book, General Milley voiced his growing concerns about Trump's leadership and mental stability. He pointedly remarked that "we don't take an oath to a king, or a queen, to a tyrant or dictator or wannabe dictator."
Milley warns that Trump is a "walking, talking advertisement" of what he plans to do with presidential power: silence opposition, intimidate critics, and abuse the authority of the Oval Office. His fears are not unfounded. They come after
Trump openly called for the execution of military officials who dared to criticize him, a statement that should send shivers down the spine of anyone who values democracy.
This is a man who not only disregards the Constitution but openly considers using the military against his opponents. Trump even threatened to bring two retired military officers back to active duty just to court-martial them simply because they criticized him after they left service.
When Trump was still in office, General Milley sought to de-escalate a growing confrontation with Chinese government leaders by reassuring them that the U.S. would not militarily attack their country. Trump responded by writing a social media post declaring that if the General were providing China with "a heads up on the thinking of the President of the United States," it would amount to "an act so egregious that, in times gone by,
the punishment would have been DEATH!"
Milley has endured death threats due to Trump's hostile rhetoric and was even forced to install bulletproof glass and blast-proof curtains at his home out of fear for his life. This is the environment Trump has created, where violence and fear are weaponized against anyone he views as an enemy.
Milley has made it clear: Trump's authoritarian impulses threaten our democracy. We cannot risk our freedom, safety, or democracy on a leader who spouts fascist rhetoric. The U.S. deserves leadership rooted in integrity, courage, and commitment to democratic values. Sign the pledge to vote for Kamala Harris and other dedicated Democrats!
