Apparently referencing Trump, he immediately added: “And we don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator!”

I typically don’t care for military types, but this guy does strike me as a genuine patriot, unlike those fascists using the word in a more delusional sense.

Seeing so many military guys coming out as hardcore anti Trump makes me happy inside. It suggests that if shit gets too far out of hand they might step in to correct things.
