A U.S. military veterans advocate criticized President Donald Trump for alleged meddling in military disciplinary affairs.
An advocate U.S. military veterans this week dubbed President Donald Trump"president chaos" and accused him of harmful meddling in military affairs.
"It's chaos. He's president chaos," Rieckhoff said."Now that's overflowing into the Pentagon. And frankly, this is not new. He's been at war with the Pentagon politically on a number of issues. If you go back to the trans ban, to the Kurds, to [James] Mattis, now this. So, what you constantly have is Trump at odds with his own military."
Rieckhoff considers the incident part of an overall pattern of disorder in the military, caused by the actions of Trump. Retired Pentagon spokesman David Lapan also participated in the discussion. Lapan, a 30-year veteran of the Marines, said the episode has had a"corrosive effect" on the military. He said Trump has made Gallagher"virtually untouchable," and although the president technically has the authority as commander in chief of the military"that doesn't make it right."
