As of Monday's speech it seems as if our government is being run by the Generals. What happened to government "by the people"?

Trump has surrounded himself with Generals. Does that make you feel really comfy cozy or does it worry you? Why?

    Many cast a jaundiced eye toward Trumps and his Generals...(I do)...

    I hope this fictional movie never comes to fruition...   Seven Days in May (1964) - Plot Summary - IMDb

    U.S. President Jordan Lyman (Fredric March) hopes to bring an end to the Cold War by signing a nuclear disarmament treaty with the Soviets, much to the displeasure of the hawkish General James Scott (Burt Lancaster), Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. When Scott's aide, Martin "Jiggs" Casey (Kirk Douglas) stumbles on shattering evidence that the General is plotting a coup to overthrow Lyman in seven days, "Jiggs" alerts the President, setting off a dangerous race to thwart the takeover.

    Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of-hawkish Generals?

    Precisely. Their main job is war. They chose it. Why? Thank you for your thoughtful reply Beans/SG and Happy Tuesday to thee.
