Summary
As a recent USA Today article makes clear: "As a convicted felon, Trump isn't fit to lead America's military as Commander in Chief". Convicted felons are generally not permitted to serve in the armed forces of the United States. It would be an absurdity, not to mention dangerous to the safety of our troops, if a convicted felon were allowed to be the Commander in Chief of America's armed forces. As someone who served more than six years on active duty with the US Army, as all soldiers, Glenn was required to abide by the laws, rules, and well-defined standards of conduct. Glenn reviews just a few of those standards as articulated in the Amy Officer's Guide to see how Trumps stacks up.
