Exchange between Rep. Matt Gaetz and Gen. Milley

Exchange between Rep Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Gen. Mark Milley.
Gaetz: "You spent more time with Bob Woodward on this book than you spent analyzing the very likely prospect that the Afghanistan government was going to fall immediately to the Taliban. Didn't you?"
Milley: "Not even close, Congressman."

Many respects for subverting their positions in the military, for undermining a sitting president, and over seeing one the worst military withdraws in modern US history. The best part is Milley never shuts up about ww1 and 2, but he seems to forget that he had subverted the sitting president in either of those wars he would have been put on a wall and shot or swept under a rug and forgotten.
