"Top US General Takes Stand Against Trump's 'Wannabe Dictator' Behavior"

Former Army General Mark Milley, during his retirement ceremony as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, seemingly took a dig at former President Donald Trump without mentioning him by name. Milley emphasized that the military does not take an oath to a king, queen, tyrant, or wannabe dictator, but rather to the Constitution and the idea of America. He also asserted that the military is not easily intimidated. Milley's comments come after clashes with Trump during his tenure, including disagreements over the use of armed forces during racial justice protests and the withdrawal of troops from Iraq and Syria. Trump responded with criticism on social media, but Milley stated that the comments affect the entire US military.
