There's no way those commanders aren't shaking their heads at this stooge. Describing defense as leading to "overuse, overreach, and mission creep"? How did this person study politics, rise up ranks to become a major and still be this ignorant of such simple concepts? I can understand dumb, but ignorant too?
"You kill people and break things for a living."
I wonder how much of the audience were insulted by that. I think even many of the grunts would find that condescending and dehumanizing.
