The man talked to a room of 800+ generals about how he walks up and down stairs carefully. And that the reason nobody respects America is because Biden fell on stairs.

For the men there that have been too busy to do much in direct contact with Trump, I bet this caused a bit of a stomach drop. This is the reality of the man in charge.

If there was anyone in that room who didn't already realize he's a demented idiot, I doubt their opinion changed.

Sure, but being in the same room with it is a whole other level. Paired with Hegseth, and his speech, that must have negative impact.

Worse, to be a hardcore military man of the general or admiral level of commitment, and be told now we’re going to test your loyalty, prepare the polygraphs. I cannot imagine a bigger insult.
