When Trump walked through Lafayette Square with General Milley at his side, the entire left just about lost its mind.
Trump was immediately likened to Hitler and dictators of Milley’s appearance.
The outrage was so significant, Milley issued an apology.
Milley, in part, stated, “My presence in that moment and in that environment created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics.”
It then became a talking point for Joe Biden, vowing to never use the military for political purposes.
Yet another promise broken.
Where’s the Outrage?
I have already stated that the backdrop that Joe Biden chose for his speech in Philadelphia was purposefully intimidating.
The blood-red backdrop and the two Marines in the background were quite ominous.
Members of the media did not miss this…
Hey, where's Joint Chiefs @thejointstaff Chairman General Mark Milley complaining about the politicization of the military? Can we expect to see a parade of military officials denouncing Biden for abusing the Marines for a political speech? Or is that just when Trump stops riots?

There was also a slew of Republicans calling out Biden, especially considering it was only a year ago that 13 service members lost their lives because of Biden’s sloppy withdrawal…
Why were U. S. Marines used as a POLITICAL backdrop, by their Commander-in-Chief, during a disunity speech? Everyone should be concerned. #potus #America pic.twitter.com/ao6sQMWVpp

Using the United States Marine Corps as props in a political speech of this nature is truly abhorrent.
Almost a year to the day of leaving 13 of my fellow Marines to die in Afghanistan. Disgraceful.

The only thing worse than Biden’s speech trashing his fellow citizens is wrapping himself in our flag and Marines to do it.

This was actually the second time that Joe Biden did that, having endorsed two other Democrats while the Marine Band was in the room.
Again, we are not asking for anything special here, just the level playing field of how Trump was treated when he was in office.
