Nah... the rules exist for a reason. Major Watson fully understood those rules and fully understood the consequences for breaking them. He also understood that he would be arrested for speaking where he spoke. Again, that was the entire point.
And I answered you. See below, bolded to make it easier. Those are the windows to hold the highest seat accountable. It's not like a regular job.
If that still doesn't make sense, you will just have to live with @Ktrain1969 's answer.
President isn't a regular job. If that doesn't make sense then I guess you will just have to live with K's moronic post, too.
I hope you're not saying that military should just do whatever the hell they want because the Trump Administration is corrupt. We took an oath to the Constitution not to the Administration and we follow the uniform code of military justice. Now, sure we can talk about Trump's other atrocities but you should know by now there really isn't an argument there , because I am not a trump supporter so I'm not sure what you would gain from that but go ahead hit me with whatever you want.

Because the dude is military and has to support the Commander in Chief If I were him, I would warm up my resume as he will be history
I believe my sack is strong enough to know that my oath was to the Constitution and not to the Trump Administration and their actions that shouldn't change decades of military honor code and tradition. I have no issue with what the major did, I simply pointed out that there will be consequences for the path he chose. Huey chose to quadruple down on the facts and yet you want to blast me for standing firm and support of military code and not bending to Trump and his cronies.
What's the alternative? Do whatever Trump wants? These aren't normal times. Trump is already trying to use the military against Americans. The military serves the Constitution. Not Trump.
If the military serves the Constitution and not Trump then why are you arguing that they can't oppose him?
So the military can't oppose the president in any capacity? Even if that President is a direct threat to the Constitution and the people it protects?
Same question to you. Is the military beholden to the president even if he threatens Americans? I'd appreciate if you stopped avoiding this.
I've explained why and literally copy and pasted the exact quotes from the Department of Defense regulations. I don't know how else to get it across to you, huey. Unless you can point to some exact unlawful order specifically given to that major or his unit I'm at a loss with you.
Trump has given many unlawful orders. Both in general and those directed towards the military.

Not only can the military legally disobey the president, they are bound by military code to do so if what he orders is unlawful.
Which makes your statement: "I hope you're not saying that military should just do whatever the hell they want because the Trump Administration is corrupt." Baffling.
The military is duty bound to oppose a corrupt administration. It's in the military code.

Fair. I was wondering if you were going to hope for jail time.
Because there is a double standard for politicians and Military members there has been for as long as I can remember regardless of administration and I've been telling folks this for years. Politicians can leak classified information all day long but if any of us in the intelligence Community do it it's the end of our careers and that's just one example. There is a clear set of "the rules are for the not for me."
and yes, it's worse under Trump, but not unique.
It's absolutely unique under Trump. No other president has routinely violated the constitution and ours laws like him. Stop sane washing this this scumbag.
