Trump fired General CQ Brown, the first Black person to lead a branch of the military, one day after his Black History Month event at the White House.
[Quoted tweet]
Trump has announced via social media post that he is ousting Chairman of the Joint Chiefs General CQ Brown and will be replacing him with Air Force Lieutenant General Dan 'Razin' Caine.

Whenever I hear Trump heap praise on one of his appointments I recall the glowing words he had for another: “General Mattis is the living embodiment of the Marine Corps motto Semper Fidelis, ‘always faithful.’”
“He is a man of honor, a man of devotion and a man of total action.”
Later, Trump decided Mattis was “the world’s most overrated General.” When Trump takes such dramatic U-turns, MAGA never wonders about his judgment. Or maybe they’re fearful of saying something out loud.

I expected that. Gen. Brown is not White enough, not that he couldn’t do the job.

So you’re saying he should have kept him on because he’s black? Or because it’s black history month, he def shouldn’t have fired him because he’s black? How about his color has nothing to do with it?

See how a real leader can celebrate black Americans while also not letting race cloud his judgement by leaving a black leader in the military who was partly responsible for the tragic Afghanistan withdrawal.
Just because someone is black, doesn’t mean they deserve to lead. General CQ Brown led a good career, but he fukked up big time and American soldiers died.

Thank you for your service, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs General CQ Brown.
You deserve so much better than how you’ve been treated by Trump.
