Many staff at the Pentagon are extremely upset that they would be removed from command positions when they are much better informed than POTUS about national security objectives. Only the Pentagon's experianced command staff are intellectually fit to lead in modern war.
For example, take Maj. Gen. Arthur Sullivan's comment regarding his intricate knowledge and experience of leadership and command:
I know the kings of England and I quote the fights historical from Marathon to Waterloo in order categorical. I'm very well acquainted with matters mathematical. I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical. About binomial theorem, I'm teeming with a lot of news and many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse. I'm very good at integral and differential calculus. I know the scientific names of beings animalculous. In short, in matters vegetable, animal and mineral, I am the very model of a modern major-general.
A sentiment echoed by another general, a J. Ripper, who said:
Mandrake, do you recall what Clemenceau once said about war?
He said war was too important to be left to the generals. When he said that, 50 years ago, he might have been right. But today, war is too important to be left to politicians. They have neither the time, the training, nor the inclination for strategic thought. I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

You know the song is kinda dated
So is our geriatric globalist intellectual elite.

But was he wrong?
When was the last time we had a great general, Eisenhower?
Schwarzkopf and Mattis really aren't bad Commanding Generals.
