SSG Robert Mark Odom Cruz is an educated IDIOT!
"I found Sen. Cruz's follow-on tweet, where he tried to claim he wasn't attacking the military, just as problematic as his original one, when he claimed that 'Dem politicians & woke media are trying to turn [the military] into pansies,'" said Urben, who now teaches at Georgetown University.
"By labeling the Army recruitment videos as 'Dem videos,' he is following a trend of politicians using the military as a partisan football — attacking the military when it's perceived to be in opposition to their partisan stance and praising it when it appears to be a co-partisan," she said. "Such comments aim to divide the military — a nonpartisan institution — and the public's perception of its military."
Maj. Gen. Alex Fink, director of Army marketing, defended the video series, saying the Army’s success “hinges on our ability to attract the best and brightest our country has to offer, which includes Soldiers from all walks of life.”
