They know they were used as political props. I imagine the more time that passes, the more disgusted they are.

Despots die, cults dissolve, tyrants are overthrown. But it all takes time and many suffer. My only hope is that it happens sooner rather than later. My life’s purpose is to support the other species on this planet, that is my priority.

Mark my words. The reason Hegseth is summoning the generals to the US is to force them to sign a loyalty oath to Trump or resign.
