Retired top general joins Mattis dissent from Trump, warns of 'beginning of the end' for democracy if troops are used against protests

"The slide of the United States into illiberalism may well have begun on June 1, 2020," retired Marine Gen. John Allen wrote in a scathing op-ed. "Remember the date."
"Donald Trump expressed only the barest of condolences at the murder of George Floyd, but he also said nothing about the fundamental and underlying reasons for the unrest: systemic racism and inequality, a historic absence of respect, and a denial of justice," Allen wrote. "Yes, he mentioned George Floyd, but he did not touch on long-standing societal problems at all. He sees the crisis as a black problem — not as something to be addressed by creating the basis and impetus for a move toward social justice, but as an opportunity to use force to portray himself as a ’law and order’ president.
