It use to be that leaders would take responsibility for everything that happened under their command, even if any reasonable person would call the failure unforeseeable. "A captain goes down with his ship" is a part of that thinking.

Now there is no accountability at all at the top. The only people with their asses on the line are the poor saps on the ground. And once those suckers on the ground figure it out then they will stop trying, and the military will cease to be an effective fighting force.

Why fight if your CO doesn't have your back? That has to start at the top...

Oh they're still trying that one by blaming things happening now on Trump. Either through simple idiocy because they have no ability to get past "Orange man bad", or through the upmost of mental gymnastics by somehow claiming because Trump was a thing everything that then follows is also his fault therefore anything/everything Biden does can/will be blamed on Trump as needed.

That's white ango-saxon protestant thinking.
