Summary

Donald Trump’s appointment of John Phelan, a private investment firm chairman with no military experience, as Secretary of the Navy has sparked backlash from some of his supporters on Truth Social.

Many pro-Trump users, including veterans, criticized the pick as rewarding a donor or friend instead of selecting someone with Navy experience.

Some expressed feelings of betrayal, accusing Trump of abandoning their values and making decisions that harm the nation.

The move has raised questions about qualifications and loyalty among his base.

    Every criticism of trumps cabinet picks are 100% for a fact over stated. I know the average Republican and they do not give a fuck. They won’t be satisfied until Trump crowns himself king.

      King? Do I have you remind you there’s Trump fanart as Warhammer’s God-Emperor of humankind? Leader of the in canon Fascist army of warhammer 40K?

      Not that there’s a good army (orks maybe?)
