Former Joint Chiefs Chairman Sounds Off On Trump: ‘I Cannot Remain Silent’
“Our fellow citizens are not the enemy and must never become so,” Mike Mullen wrote.
“Whatever Trump’s goal in conducting his visit, he laid bare his disdain for the rights of peaceful protest in this country, gave succor to the leaders of other countries who take comfort in our domestic strife and risked further politicizing the men and women of our armed forces.”
The retired four-star Navy admiral said armed forces would obey lawful orders.
