Now that is an image we'd never see if Hillary was President. I may not have voted for Trump, but that group of men together would make me feel safe.

Not me, Marines are the first ones in, the last ones out... they know what shit is, and know when to put the country or their men into it or not.

Certainly don't have to worry about half-measure war efforts.

I am just reflecting on what happened in Turkey.

For a coup to occur in this country, the first thing you need is a military leader with a direct claim to the throne. Add a couple other Marine divisions and loyal Navy air squadrons...

Just shooting the breeze.

If you look at what the most respected institutions are you'd find the military at the top.

DHS says collusion between RU and Trump/Pence DoD confirms leaves only the State Department to overpower.

Also, collusion between DHS and DoD could obscure troop movements.

Problems faced in Turkey...

I don't mind most of those picks. I did read an article on Mattis that I liked. I'd rather the State Department wasn't overpowered, that's the diplomacy wing, they aren't the CIA. I'd rather state do their job so the military can practice maneuvers.
