When I enlisted in the Air Force in 1970, I took an oath to support the Constitution. I did not take an oath to support the president in office nor his political philosophy.
These days it seems like Donald Trump is demanding personal loyalty from people. I am basing this on his words and on his actions.
This is frightening, when you consider his description of people he has personally chosen over the years, many of whom he now criticizes as incompetent losers. One role of an executive is to select and manage competent help, a clear failing of Trump as an executive.
He has degenerated to the absurd concept of limiting peoples to two choices! You are either for me or you are against me.
