Today's national security is a hodgepodge of Trump sycophants in "acting" roles because he the Republican senate would not confirm them. Each in turn beholden to Trump, not to our constitution. We see examples of this day after day.

Because President Trump has no concept of our military role he has compromised our national security and by attacking our military leaders has caused dissension and has diminished our faith in him to lead us through any form of conflict and in fact has been at the center of many conflicts by fomenting division.

I agree with jsmella. As a loser and sucker I would defend this country and the constitution, again. The Southern border is not the problem, Trump and his enablers and followers are.

We are far less secure now than we were then, chiefly due to our inept CIC.

Vote our Country depends upon a massive turnout this election.

Our National Security is our Soldiers/Sailors/Airmen, not our walls. Our National Security is under attack from within. Trump avoided the draft by a wealthy Father, (who marched in support of the Nazi Bund...)arranging for a "Bone Spur" exemption. McConnell mysteriously also accomplished a discharge from Army for an easily treatable (with short steroid treatment)eye irritation (never mentions it...). We have a liar-in Chief who has repeated violated the Constitution, is a Comrade of Putin's, has
randomly disclosed National Security information, and openly mocks actual War Heroes, current Military Veterans/Active Duty Members. Vote for America. Vote the liar out of Oval Office. I volunteered Army during Vietman War. Some never know the meaning of service, or honor.

I volunteered for the Navy and agree with this post.

STATE GOVERNORS will have to defend us with their National Guard
responsibilities until we can restructure our military from the commander in chief on down to our front line Generals.
