In President Trump’s telling, Dan Caine, the retired Air Force lieutenant general whom he wants to be his next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, made an impression on him when the two men first met in 2018.
The general told the president that the Islamic State was not so tough and could be defeated in a week, not two years as senior advisers predicted, Mr. Trump recounted in 2019.
The president also added a new detail, claiming that General Caine donned a MAGA hat, despite military guidelines that active-duty troops should not wear political paraphernalia.
“‘I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir,’” Mr. Trump said General Caine said. “Then he puts on a Make America Great Again hat,” Mr. Trump said, laughing. “You’re not allowed to do that, but they did it.”
Primary qualification? Kissing Trump's ass.

Let's forget Milley for a minute - not everyone's favorite, not the worst either.
Let's look at the clear indications made by GEN McChrystal and ADM McRaven, two clearly incredible true warriors (both commanded the JSOTF I was in, 20+ years ago, when they were upper tier leaders in JSOC). Both knew Trump for the prancing peacock of a martinet wanna-be that he is.
There will be casualties - the real ones, not just jobs/information about disease/tax auditors, no...we're talking about the real, ugly, second order effects of raw stupid running unchecked at the top - before this gets better.
