McClanahan on Whether Milley Committed Treason

I'll probably write my own one-off post on the Milley accusation over the week ahead. I have a more nuanced position but basically concur with McClanahan's ending summary. I think Milley was out-of-line; if there was a diplomatic issue, it should have been handled by Secretary of State Pompeo, if Trump issued an illegal/unconstitutional order to initiate war without a Congressional declaration, Milley could have resisted compliance. But it was not Milley's place to stand in judgment of POTUS. Milley should resign or be fired
