I don't think you understand what treason is under US law."out of line"???
No. He was being treasonous.
You believe generals aren't political?Absolutely, there's no question about it. Playing politics in such a high position shows the mentality of the liberal mindset.
Was General Mark Milley out of line in carrying out contacts behind President Trump's back?
Please answer the poll above.
Whether he was out of line, well, I can see both sides of that argument. But "treasonous", that is just a ****ing idiotic thing to claim. I realize if Trump said the world was flat, you would jump on that bandwagon and come up for excuses why it was true, and why Trump did not really mean it, but that is one case where Trump's claim in treason is just totally ignorant."out of line"???

Any member of the armed forces...whether the lowest private or the highest general...who goes outside the chain of command and communicates with the enemy...and tells them he will let them know if his country is about to attack them is committing treason.Whether he was out of line, well, I can see both sides of that argument.

Neither Trump nor Esper told him to do what he did.How so? He was operating under the established policy of the Trump Administration under the direction of Secretary of Defense Esper.

Milley wanted to avoid a tragic mistake and misunderstanding with potentially catastrophic consequences. Trump was bloviating, the intel services saw the uptick in Chinese chatter about it. Some people in China were like "WTF? Is this guy serious?" They were worried. Milley knew Trump did not read his daily security briefings and would not "read the room" when it came to China. Milley did his duty and calmed the Chinese down. It took a lot of courage, knowing how Trump hates it when his own people contradict him in public.
Neither Trump nor Esper told him to do what he did.
Yeah, that was pretty much it. Milly's duty was to the Constitution, the rule of law, and to the well-being of the country, not to Trump.Milley had a duty and Trump was a threat.
Well, your definition does not fit. I realize you must, no matter what, try and defend whatever Trump says, but some of what Trump says is completely idiotic, so defending those statements makes you look bad. I would try and think for yourself for once, instead of letting Trump try and think for you.Any member of the armed forces...whether the lowest private or the highest general...who goes outside the chain of command and communicates with the enemy...and tells them he will let them know if his country is about to attack them is committing treason.

Now do US Legal Code.Any member of the armed forces...whether the lowest private or the highest general...who goes outside the chain of command and communicates with the enemy...and tells them he will let them know if his country is about to attack them is committing treason.
