What the U.S. is seeing today with Trump-supporting Republicans 'is a parallel to the 1930s in Nazi Germany,' said Barry McCaffrey.
"This is a cult. It's a lawless cult, and it's a major threat to the armed forces of the United States and our security."
McCaffrey, a decorated Vietnam War veteran, was in the U.S. Army for 32 years and later served as director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy under PresidentHe added that Trump's comment about Milley was"shameful," but that Milley would not be intimidated. "He's a Princeton hockey player, he's a tough guy, he had years in combat, his mom and dad fought in World War Two," McCaffrey said of Milley.
"But it's a shameful act on the part of those speaking in a manner to support authoritarian government. This is outrageous.":"I'm a soldier, I've been faithful and loyal to the Constitution of the United States for 44 1/2 years and my family and I have sacrificed greatly for this country, my father and mother before them.
"You know, as much as these comments are directed at me, it's also directed at the institution of the military... every single one of us, from private to general, are loyal to the Constitution, and will never turn our back on it."
