I've enjoyed your posts in the past so I won't give this quite the treatment it deserves. Here's the oath I swore when I became a third generation member of the United States Army:
"I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
First line, defend the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I'm no longer in the Army but I never unswore that oath. And if the greatest threat to the Constitution is actually the sitting president, it puts our country in a tough position. What to do? Would such a course of action be arrived at through emotion?
If you say I'm irrational, demonstrate my irrationality. You're incapable of doing so because you are a guy who posts on a 20-year-old elf sim forum and doesn't have any actual impact on American political life. I was mentored by a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and am currently associated with another journalist who has direct sources in the USIC. You say you just don't see it. The intelligence community is unanimous in its conclusion that Russia attacked our Democracy. It's not my conclusion you're questioning, it's theirs. So tell us, what do you know that the IC doesn't?

They also said saddam had weapons of mass destruction. Hillary was the preferred candidate of the intelligence community. Anyway, I’m not impugning their character, just saying they are highly fallible. I still don’t see trump giving up much to Russia. If anything, he’s too pro-Israeli. We have expanding sanctions on Russia and let up Russian soldiers in Syria since he took office
And yeah, I have no sway in American political life. I’m ok with that bud
