Donald Trump Let Fly Some Insults At Rips Gen. Milley’s Expense

Former President Donald Trump has never been one to hold back and he certainly didn’t start with General Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, when he called him a “f*cking idiot” Saturday.

Turning Point USA hosted an event at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida Saturday where Trump spoke his truth about Milley and the part he played in the withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Referencing a previous conversation he’d had with Milley, Trump told the crowd that Milley claimed it would be “cheaper” to leave military equipment in the Middle East than it would be to bring it back to the U.S.

“Sir, sir. It’s cheaper to leave the equipment than to bring it,” Trump began, describing Milley’s advice. Trump listed the millions of dollars of brand new equipment in the Middle East. “You think it’s cheaper to leave it there so they can have it than to fill it up with a half a tank of gas?” questioned Trump.

“That’s when I realized he was a f*cking idiot,” Trump said as the audience broke out in laughter.

Trump also called Milley out in September, calling him a “dumbo” while citing the infamous phone call Milley made to China warning them of U.S. military strikes. Trump said “lightweight” Milley’s decision to make the call was counterproductive and outrageous.

Trump pushed back on Milley in July when Milley accused him of wanting to launch a coup after the November election. “So ridiculous! Sorry to inform you, but an Election is my form of ‘coup,’ and if I was going to do a coup, one of the last people I would want to do it with is General Mark Milley,” Trump exclaimed.
