Former President Donald Trump reportedly praised Adolf Hitler’s generals for their loyalty and expressed a desire for American military personnel to show him similar deference, as per a recent story by The Atlantic. It was revealed that American military officers, including generals, swear an oath to the Constitution rather than the commander-in-chief.
Trump's alleged comments about Hitler's generals were also mentioned in a book published in 2022. The book reported an incident where Trump compared his then-chief of staff to German generals, prompting a clarification from the retired Marine general, John Kelly.
