Looks like the military establishment really had it with Trump.  Probably drives him crazy.

I don't trust Tom Cotton (although I thought his op-ed was pretty reasonable)

Um,

There will be many major Republicans either supporting Biden or anyone else but the lunatic Trump.

Those same Republicans didn't vote for him the first time and wont be voting for him the second time either. but I guess it didn't matter as he won anyway. The question is if people are more excited to go vote for Biden then they were for Hillary.

And if people like George Bush will be more vocal against Trump this time around.

IMHO the military brass is going to make a lot of people rethink what is going on. No one is buying the Trump BS about Mad Dog except the hardcore Kool-Aid drinkers.

I suspect most of the country isn't as respectful of the military brass as you are.

I have two brothers they served in Vietnam. One flew many combat missions and the other received the Purple Heart. Both were die hard Trump supporters last time. Different story this time around.

Those who support the military will be influenced by the military brass over Trump. If they are not then do they really support our military?

Now the Kool-Aid drinkers will twist this into I said if you don't vote the way the military brass votes you don't support our military.

Even the R's are not happy.

June 3: The protests sweeping across the nation are having a huge impact on the election futures. Biden (-114) now leads Trump (+101), who is plus-money for the first time since Nov. 2019.

If you want to bet on Trump I would wait as he will be more of an underdog meaning you will get better odds.

The R establishment coming out against Trump will do a great job of turning Trump into the anti-establishment candidate yet again

That is great for his base that he already has but not so much on I's.

Lets take the latest issue with Mad Dogs piece ripping Trump. You think the I's would slant towards Trump or Mad Dog on this issue?
