Trump to nominate Wumao shill hyping up China’s paper dragon military for secretary of defense.

A major in the national guard with zero contact in the Pentagon (might never have even visited) now given control over personnel, funding allocation between the branches, project approval, strategic planning, force deployment, and has to give orders to a massive military apparatus that respect merit and rank, this is just too good.

I mean, just think, as a major he never had access to any classified information, and everything he knows come from propaganda on TV... and he's about to get a top level classified briefing on what China actually can do.... lol

See, I told you this could be coming. Tiktok did the same gamble as Musk and it may be paying off.

Tiktok gives Trump good numbers. As a media person, he ain't getting rid of that.

Despite the great name, it'll still depend on Congress for allocation funding. Simple Republican majority in Congress won't be enough to break a filibuster if it comes down to it. So we'll see how much actual power it'll actually have. If it only gets a mini budget, Elon will quit since he has better things to do and leave Vivek holding the bag.

“They’re gone,” Trump said of those generals, without naming specific officers.
One feared potential target of Trump’s threatened purge could be Air Force Gen. CQ Brown, Jr., the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, according to two defense officials. During the 2020 George Floyd protests, Brown spoke about the impact that movement had on him and what it was like to rise through the military ranks as a Black fighter pilot.

I have a feeling General Brown is going to use General Milley's speed dial button to call China before Jan 20th. Maybe this is why the US is persistent in keeping lines of contact with China open.

"Hello, President Xi, we have just removed Donald Trump from office, but it's going to be ok, Democracy can be a little messy at times."

The contact line is useful. Last time it was used it had diffused tensions as the PLA had actually went into combat-readiness because there was credible intel that Trump and his acolytes would have tried to do something stupid at the SCS islands

"President Xi, My name is Charles Quinton Brown Jr. I am general of USAF. My Commander-in-Chief is about to commerce a purge of our military and I suspect my name is on his hit list. Please send Chengdu J-20 Multirole Stealth Fighter Aircraft."

I thought Douglas MacGregor was going to be utilized in some capacity at the DOD by Trump for his next admin since he already served under Trump during his prior term.
