Washington (Kavian Press)-During a White House press conference, President Donald Trump accused his top military officials of warmongering and benefiting from wars and sales of arms.
He said that U.S. soldiers are “in love with me,” but top Pentagon officials “probably aren’t because they want to do nothing but fight wars so that all of those wonderful companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy.”
The attack is Trump’s new response to the Atlantic’s report last week that Trump has called members of the military, including fallen war heroes, “suckers” and “losers.”
The president’s sudden slam may have been an attempt to suggest that disgruntled officials were behind that story.
