(3,138 posts)broadcasting in military installations for too long. Our military isn't as united as we'd hope or expect. Retired leaders are speaking out, but the rank and file are truly divided, like the rest of the country. My army officer son reports open support for trump.

We can't shore up our defenses without thinking outside the box here. I don't have answers but it's important we be asking the right questions. We know that lies can become so deeply ingrained that truth won't matter anymore.
