First of all its impossible for POTUS to undermine the chain of command cause he is the commander in chief of the armed forces as provided by the constitution
Not sure what you mean by undercut but he has demanded the Allies pay their fair share for NATO
In what way has he emboldened Putin need more info on this
what racial issues are you talking about need more info
Increasing alt-right/neo Nazi infiltration hmm thats a new one hadnt heard that before what fake news place did that come from
No evidence that there is less trust or cohesion this is just something youve grabbed out of the air
A brigade commander can undermine the chain of command below him, and so can the POTUS.
We're pulling out of Germany and moving some of that into Poland where it will be both less secure AND less of a deterrent.
If I have to explain about Putin you haven't been paying attention. How about, for starters, that he hasn't called Putin on the bounties that Russia has put on the heads of American troops in Afghanistan? I know--fake news.
Read Military.com, as I do every day. Sign up for the newsletter--you too can read about all the wonderfulness.
Racial issue, yeah, just fake news. Trump supporters don't like it, so it's fake news.
Read anything about command climate, morale, discipline, violence within units, again on Military.com. Read all the vile comments from Trump supporters. They hate blacks, they hate Jews, they think women are nothing but vaginas. But they worship Donald Trump. My only hope about that is that possibly some of them are bots from Donald's BFF Vladimir.
I'm not going to look up and provide links. Last time I did, you didn't read them anyway, and just responded with more rhetorical questions.
