Not a general, but I could see Mullen in that role.

Trump will be 73.

... Yeah? I mean, he's unqualified as poo poo for a wide variety of reasons. His age is really just a "I would prefer my presidents not to be quite so close to the grave" kind of thing.

All I'm saying is that if I had a 2 year old, I wouldn't run for president. First due to the pace of a presidential campaign, and second due to the possibility of winning and then having the next 4-8 years of a (actual qualified) president's schedule which tends to involve a fuckton of 16 hour days.

But then as LingcodKilla says, I guess that's what extended family is for. I don't have much of those and they're far away, so it's not something I really considered when I was picturing raising a kid with a time suck job in my head.

I knew one guy who’d id recommend to the end of the earth for this but he’s only an O-5 and should be a squadron commodore in a few years if he doesn’t get out. (MML too I guess?)

If it needs to be a O-9 the last two heads of Naval Reactors have had solids heads on them. Caldwell and Richardson.

They wanted to do this for the inauguration too. Friend of mine who worked the inauguration (he was military so he didn't have a choice) said they (DoD and the military) had to carefully explain several times why it wasn't a good idea for Abrams's and Bradley's to go cruising down Pennsylvania Ave for logistical as well as image reasons.

Yep, I remember that! The big thing though is that this appears to be 100% happening.

I know it won't, but I'd love to see this parade fizzle like all his other grand ideas and get whittled down until it's just a color guard and a band, followed by a single humvee with a couple of bored E3s in it.

And the band isn't even TUSAB, it's like the Arkansas National Guard Band or some poo poo.

they could probably task a company of tanks, a company of marines in uniform, a big rocket thing like the patriot or something i guess, have an f22 scream down the center and somewhere off in the distance someone does a big Naval Foghorn and he would think it was the biggliest parade ever held on earth ever period

The obvious counter-argument is that being dissuaded is simply capitulating to those who benefit from making political discourse uncivil and want to deny higher office to mothers/father's/whomever

There was a Confederate general in the Civil War who managed to convince McClellan that he had thousands and thousands more troops than he really did by marching the same regiment or two past a break in the trees while the rest of his army withdrew.

Maybe we can do something similar for Trump.
