As for Trump calling for Milley's execution, as usual, he was quite slippery about it. I found the "Lies Social" post and he said this:

This guy [Milley] turned out to be a Woke train wreck who, if the Fake News reporting is correct, was actually dealing with China to give them a heads up on the thinking of the President of the United States. This is an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would have been DEATH! A war between China and the United States could have been the result of this treasonous act.

So, Trump didn't outright say Milley should be executed, only that in the past Milley's actions would have been considered to be treason, resulting in death as the punishment. That's probably not historically accurate either, but I think Trump once again escapes accountability for his implication.
