Retired Army Gen. Mark Milley, who served as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden, now says Trump is a total fascist and fascist to the core, according to a forthcoming book by Bob Woodward, the famed Watergate journalist.
He is the most dangerous person ever, Milley told Woodward for his book War, according to The Guardian. I had suspicions when I talked to you about his mental decline and so forth, but now I realize hes a total fascist. He is now the most dangerous person to this country. A fascist to the core, Milley said.
Part of Milleys warning about Trump revolves around the former presidents promise to get revenge on his perceived political enemies. Trump has frequently told his supporters on the campaign trail: I am your retribution. Milley, who clashed with Trump in the White House and who has since been publicly critical of the current Republican presidential nominee, told Woodward that hes afraid of being recalled from retirement to be court-martialed if Trump wins the election next month.
According to the Guardians report on Woodwards book, Milley warned his former colleagues in Washington that Trump was a walking, talking advertisement of what hes going to try to do, adding: Hes saying it and its not just him, its the people around him.

Thank you General Milley!

(28 posts)I've been saying for some time now (not here as I'm new)... one of them - a key player - is going to come right out and say: "What's the big deal about being a fascist anyway?" They did it with Christian Nationalism/theocracy, bound to do it with fascism. Heard it here first.
