It’s not for any 4 star generals. The Republicans still want to hold the senior leadership under their boot for a potential military involvement in the elections.
Before you decide to downvote me, this is openly called for by the orange dictator in training who has put pressure on the military. Gen Milley called him out for this
They’re going to sell this to the promoted troops as “that promotion that senator noob tube got you” to divide the military so they can kick off a real civil war, and guess who the military industrial complex is going to support in that war?
Nowhere in that article does it use GOP as a pronoun nor had it claimed it is used as one. I'm just thinking that the GOP are hypocritical enough to adopt it as one.
Definition of a Pronoun : The word that is used in place of a noun or a noun phrase is known as pronoun. A pronoun is used in place of a noun to avoid the repetition of the noun.
GOP isn’t a ‘pronoun,’ it’s a nickname and has been for decades.
[sigh] A pronoun is a word you use instead of a proper name. “The Model T was built for decades. It was America’s most popular car.” In that sentence ‘it’ is a pronoun.
“The Model T was a common sight in every city and town. Everyone knew someone who drove a Tin Lizzie.” Tin Lizzie was another name for the Model T. ‘Tin Lizzie’ isn’t a pronoun, it’s a proper name.
GOP isn’t a ‘pronoun’ and never was. It’s always been a proper name and that’s how I used it. Like the word ‘fish’ it can mean a single member of the Republican Party, or the Party as a whole.
You cannot back pay a rank that was never promoted unfortunately. We can simply garnish that senator's wages but he'd still make more money than his entire district from insider trading anyways
He did accomplish a thing. He single-handedly managed to compromise national security. With all the open positions, work wasn’t able to get done and some people legit burnt out trying to do the work of many people.
He was using the leverage available to him to make a political point. The problem is that we have a system that leaves military readiness open to the whims of a single politician, giving him the ability to do it.
On one hand, the republican nonsensical behavior is exposing a large array of weaknesses in our political system, which can enable proper change to strengthen it against these kinds of malicious exploits.
On the other hand, fat chance anybody actually does anything about that.
You should for the same reason you should care he's still holding up the more senior ranks, he's hoping to leave them vacant for Trump to fill with people loyal to him
