2021-10-05 Government Corruption
Last week before he was arrested and sent to the brig, Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller went on a rampage against President Trump and his family on Facebook.
[GatewayPundit] Stuart Scheller had this to say about President Trump and his family.

President Trump. I was told by everyone to kiss the ring because of your following and power. I refuse. While I respect your foreign policy positions, I hate how you divided the country. I don’t need or want your help. You do not have the ability to pull US together. You may even win the next election. But your generation’s time is running out. Tell your son to stop tweeting about me. Your whole family knows nothing about US or our sacrifices. I could never work with you. I’d rather sit in jail and be released with a dishonorable than make compromises in my beliefs.
I have opinions in this new light of Stewie, all of them vulgar
Not everybody likes President Trump — his personality is polarizing. But note that Colonel Scheller respects his foreign policy positions, a sentiment he likely does not feel for President Biden’s, and ditto about Biden’s domestic policies.

#1 After Lt Col All Mouth spewed spital against Trump his fund raising stalled. His idiocy is that Trump devided America. But Lt Col Know Nothing is too stupid to know that when America saw the Dems and Republicans were united and one was just as corrupt as the other (aka DC Establishment) the voters broke from the norms and sent in a non-politician.

For years this moron lived off the tax payers as part of the military and is 100% clueless about any thing outside of his Deep State bubble. 10 years in Levenworth aught to do it...

#3 Consider if he had accepted Trump and conservative assistance?
He is in a no win situation.

Amazing as the DC DOD Brass royal screw up in Afghanistan is being spread. How quickly narrative and comments made by a person locked in solitary confinement and unable to defend himself changes.

Being a skeptic... I'll wait to hear it directly from him instead of trusting what is said in the MSM and printed in Social Media.

#6 If he is in the brig, how is he making comments on social media?

#8 I believe the President is not as polarizing or divisive as what is so loudly said of him. LtCol Scheller did very purposefully violate a direct order to no comprehensible end; he has already resigned and is on the way out and nothing he has said is timely.

His adult and professional life have been lived in a space with jealously guarded hard edges. Whether nascent hero or broken clock he got himself exactly where he is through his own efforts. Time will tell who he is or can be.

#9 So he hates Trump. Get in line with about half of America. This is not news. Its an attempt to sway Trump supporters to leave him in jail. He was not jailed for his anti Trump rant. But the propaganda blast seemed to work, now BB is overlooking the real reason he is in jail, and walking away. I say good job to the psyop groups.

#10 Rank and file has a lot to be frustrated about.

I may even agree here; if the reports have been ten years of rainbow farts, what has been going on?

FFS, that story about Brave Sir Donahue and his Last Man Out picture, when really he was collecting war booty (Hilex with a ZSU-23 mount) at the cost of evacuees? WTF? If that is true, it is an easy step to take that he was there to explicitly make sure Afghans were taken instead of Americans.

Got Milley lurking around in the curtains. And these are just the faces, what is in the machine?

#11 Scheller is that rare animal who is truly guileless. He would never have made general. Most people tamp down their personal views/ambitions when they clash with those of people useful for their personal advancement until those people are superfluous to said goals. For good or evil, life is not a test graded by impartial arbiters. What he said will have an impact on Trump's comeback hopes. And people like me, who are relying on that comeback to repair some of the damage still unfolding under Democrat rule, will abstain from contributing to a man unconcerned about continued Democrat domination.

#12 Trump was and is a goof. Yes, most of views on the burning issues were correct, but his leadership was in incoherent, inconsistent, and weak. Not a model C-in-C.

#13 Which is why we will see more and more articles like this, to discredit and divide the opposition.

There is that smell in the air that what was going on over there was a Mexican Donkey Show and those stories can only be suppressed and dripped out so much.

This is a hyped up Trump People and Mean Tweets, but still excellent points Zhang Fei.

You've mistaken Trump for a king, who can put (some of) his opponents in the ground.

#15 ^ Biden is a dictator in power via widespread fraud and corruption.

#16  Not a model C-in-C.

You go to the elections with the candidates you have, Sheba tse Tung4690, not waiting for a Platonic Ideal of a prince on a white charger (who never shows up anyway). Would Hillary have been better? Is Mr. Biden?

The only way President Trump could have been a stronger Commander in Chief would have been to fire the all the senior officers who were busily “resisting” his orders instead of actually doing the job they were sworn to do. Ditto on the civilian side among the bureaucrats, of course, but that is not the question at hand.

#17 I'm calling complete bull.

Little Stewie hadn't the brains to realize it wasn't Trump dividing the nation it was, is our ChiCom Leftist Industrial treasonous media that did that.

No one asked this fruck to kiss "Trump's ring". But now he sure is kissing Biden's ass.

#18 Yes: Trump faced severe resistance from the swamp.
Yes: the election was a farce, and likely stolen.
Yes, his enemies lied and cheated and stoked riots and forged ballots and fabricated stories out of thin air and collided with our enemies to destroy Trump.
- AND -
Yes, Trump shot himself more times than they shot Rasputin.
And yes, Trump was and is a goof who threw away his chance at winning re-election.

Embrace the power of AND.

#19 Not a model C-in-C.

I feel like I'm in France 1943 and I'm getting pretty tired of the people who just want to argue about whether Paul Reynaud was a good leader or not. Can we put it off until we actually have meaningful elections again?
