What I am finding unsettling is that military officers who knew General Kelly quite well have started saying that, in the past few weeks, they are seeing an angry side of him they hadn't ever seen before. I had hoped he had the core strength to put Trump in check, or resign in protest if he had no control of the president. But he appears to be undergoing a change not that different from Flynn's. And that can be dangerous. That type of rigid personality, with the tendency to obey authority without question, is a real downside to too many generals. (A good friend who is retired military often tells me that he has never trusted a single general.)
