Gen. Mark Milley: The 60 Minutes Interview 

As a Catholic and Veteran from Iraq war sir, thank you for your service and all the sacrifices you and your family made for this country.

The way he threw shade at trump in his retirement speech was beautifully said. Much respect to General Milley.

Ask the people of Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Rumania, and Poland why supporting Ukraine is so important.

General Milley, thank you for your bravery and protecting our peace and humanity

When they're talking about the recruitment shortfalls there's a lot of veterans, like myself, who got out in the past 20 years and when you're asked about your service you give an honest answer. No one wants to join when they fail to take care of you, treat you with dignity and they need to look in the mirror and make cultural changes from the top down. They have no one to blame but themselves.

“Do you bear some of the responsibility of that?” “Absolutely!” That is how leaders speak. You own the decision, you own the accountability.

Anyone who Trump openly expresses hatred for is a person usually worthy of praise. Great job, Milley!! I appreciate your service.

Thanks, General Milley for your service, your fellow veterans support you! I am a moderate and I have voted for republicans most of my adult life. JOHN MCCAIN from the great state of Arizona was a WAR HERO because he refused to leave his fellow POWs behind!!! I am not a sucker and loser, and I will not let anyone dishonor the service of those who did not survive military service! I believe General Kelly! I am a proud retired Army veteran! The former president is guilty of "conduct unbecoming" and he "failed to fulfill his oath and obligations under the constitution". He is lucky the UCMJ does not apply to him. I will support VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS and encourage my fellow veterans to get involved! I hope my fellow veterans remember the oath we swore too, it stays with us our entire lives...it is who we are, there is no expiration on our oath...it is one of the reasons we call each other "brothers and sisters" along with our shared experiences. I hope you all realize there is one true choice in 2024, support the Vice President. If Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) or Liz Cheney (R-WY) decides to run, then I might rethink my voting choice.

As a veteran I would have like to see the General reflect more on the recent recruiting failures and lack of faith in our military. Quite obviously this was caused by the Iraq and Afghanistan wars being completely futile exercises in hubris and incompetence on the part of politicians and senior leadership and our country still hasn’t had a full reckoning of our failures in those wars.

A brave man who deserves his title of general. Well done sir. A supporter of America's belief in democracy. Uk.

It's a shame Generally Milley doesn't run for President on the Republican ticket. He's not only a brave and intelligent man, he's humble, empathetic, and the very definition of integrity. Sadly, those are the very qualities that would keep him off the republican ticket. They seem to only embrace "crazy" at this point in history. Still, General Milley would be the first Republican I'd ever voted for if he did. In my opinion, he should be Commander and Chief.

Thank you Gen Mark Milley!

"That's right, he said that". Perfect response. Infinite disdain.

Remember this man stood in front of congress and was questioned about Socialism and its spread in the US. He then said you need to teach about it because education is the best defense against a corrupt and evil governments. He was then asked if he has ever read the communist manifesto in which he said yes and he then listed off several other highly controversial books such as the little red book of China as well as studied the psychology of collectivism and socialism stating that those who don't are always doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Feel so bad for the allies he left behind with the Taliban they tortured so many of our allies.

A true patriot, very intelligent man. A general that can look 20 to 30 years into the future.

Much respect for Gen. Mark Milley 🙏🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸🙏

Yes! Been waiting all week for this.

American Hero! 💙

"I'd like to get your names and we'll see where life takes you guys", what a thing to hear from the highest military officer in the country!

Oh my goodness. Great video, thank you so much. Milley is 💯🎯. God Bless America ! 🇺🇸💪🏼💞🙏🏼💞💪🏼🇺🇸

thank you for your continued service General Milley

Dude has the most classic general look I've ever seen

“Military BUSINESS “ is the global issue of all conflicts around the world.

We take an oath speech made a few days after Esper was fired. The version given at his retirement/ change of command added "We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator."

I looove being An American 😊! Today i was working at my familys restaurant .And I was thinking iam proud of serving the finest people. Everybody loves our Mexican food and everyone treats my family so well.I love my country ❤not only do we have the most beautiful woman in the world we have the best well mannered respectful people i have had the pleasure of serving and growing up with.God bless America 🇺🇸 ❤❤❤❤

A true American Hero🇺🇲 Trump 2024 years in prison Vote💙💙💙USA

An amazing man and the epitome of being in service. He is a true Patriot and America is better for it.

I wish they asked Milley what the political/strategic end state is for Ukraine? What does victory look like? The destruction of Russia or just repelling its forces from Ukrainian borders? What's the end game?

What the heck, why the hell she said Mr. Biden and addressed Trump as President?! Tsk tsk

Trump must NOT be a president again. Ever.

What ever you do, don't put the blame on you, blame it on the rain. You've gotta blame it on something, blame it on the rain.

I noticed in the interview, Norah O'Donnell called Biden, Mr. Biden, and consistently called Trump, President Trump...??? FYI, Ms. O'Donnell, Trump officially left office on January 6, 2021 when the House voted to accept the election results. May I add a Thank God for that. And General Milley is a true patriot!

General Milley is a true American Hero. I wish he would run for President. I feel he truly understands the global situation and has what it takes.

Patriot and a hero.

My sincerest gratitude to those who have worn and wear a military uniform

A true patriot. Refreshing

Much respect to you sir, thank you for all the work that you've done. God bless you General Milley.

I'm English so a supposed neutral here. However I was so impressed by General Milley in this interview. He comes across as a very honest and humble person in that interview. I hope his successor is as good as he appears to be.

Milley was serving this country while Trump was at the playboy mansion

The words "clown shoes" come to mind.

Thank you General Milley, a true American Patriot! 🤗

General Milley = TV General 😆😆

I have never liked a general before, as they tend to be one sided. But this man is both thoughtful and commanding. Nice to see some balance 👍

A real patriot. Thank you for your service. Can we convince you to un-retire?

THANK GENERAL MILLEY FAR YOUR AMAZING SERVICES AMERICAS PRAYERS WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU YOUR FOR THE GREAT WORKS YOU ALL'S ARE DOING AND CONTINUE TO DO GOD, BLESSED YOU ALL'S PEACE FOREVERS MORE MANY BLESSING TO ALL'S GODS, BLESS❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Mark, a father to us all. Protected us from that wanna be tyrant. You are a man amongst men. I wish you were president.

Mark Milley - a national disgrace and despised by the rank and file.

It would have been nice if 4 presidents could have provided some guidance on what the actual objective was. At first it was justified. But after the first 2 years it was a disaster.

Huge fan of General Milley.

General Milley's realistic and level headed personality probably saved the world from worse i tip my hat to him in thanks

Assuming The responsibility for low trust and recruitment of the military is a lesson for many politicians across the world.

Those service members who spoke Chinese have a very important career ahead of them

If I was going to join the military, I’d probably join as a nurse (when I get my RN). What would hold me back from joining is we’re not in any large scale wars right now, so it doesn’t feel apparent to me that I need to join, especially when i have more control over pay, location, and hours at home. I believe when the time requires it, the military will have no issue recruiting.

I have nothing but respect for MARK MILLEY!

The sloppy pullout of Afghanistan was the biggest waste of human life and High tech military equipment, I ever seen in military history. Also apologizing to china for no reason at all and right after they created covid 🤦‍♂️. The guy gets a F-

A true patriot and a hero !!! Greetings from Sweden. J.

Full Respect to Gen. Mark Milley. A True Patriot, Always.

Thank you for your service

Thank you for your service.

RESPECT

Gen Mark. We all have done things in this lifetime we wished never happened. Your parents raised you well. Be proud. I am very smitten with you. Wendy Carrey👑🇨🇦

Thank you for your service sir

I read Mark Esper's book Sacred Oath and yes he ordered Gen Milley to call the Chinese to keep them calm . the pumpkins mou

Hero

I salute you Gen. Miley, you are truly a man in uniform dedicated to your country🙏👏

Military Business! Truest words ever spoken 😊😊😊

Funding Ukraine to destroy Russia is a pretty inexpesive option if you consider what it would take for NATO to do the job. No NATO or US soldiers on the line.

General Milley, is Without Doubt a PATRIOTIC, DEDICATED, and UNQUESTIONABLY GREAT MILITARY LEADER. We owe him our appreciation for his Commitment to The United States Of America. 🇺🇸👏👏👏👍👍

"military business" that says all there's to know about the US military nowadays.

When most of trump’s former cabinet is saying he is unfit for a return to office says volumes against trump.

Why did Gen. Miley keep murmuring "power war" instead of referring to world war? Did i hear right (said it twice).

Gen. Mark Milley wanted to say SO MUCH about the Trump, but his professionalism, character, wisdom and respect for his country didn't allowed him to do so. Wow, what a gentlemen and a TRUE patriot.

Milly treason, traitor I hope there is a chance he needs to spend time in prison.

Great man and soldier! Thank You for your service and your your upright, soldierly behavior

I'll never forget Lafyette square. First time in my lifetime I saw the government violate our first amendment rights in such a brazen and disgusting way.

General Mark Milley is an Eisenhower general. GOD BLESS HIM!

“Preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”

I read about a certain Schommer, U.S Army. the likes of Josh Scandel. He got a Bronze Star Medal for exceptionally distinguished service during Operation Iraqi Freedom. His Iraq experience helps him now in dealing with the grind of daily volatility in tough stock markets - and those big gulp moments.

Congratulations 🎉Fantastic Enlightening video of retired, Mr Chairman USArmy Sir General Mark Alexander Milley 🙏 Honor and Respect from Norway ❤️🌹🇺🇸🇳🇴 🙏

His complete embarrassment of a withdrawal from Afghanistan was disgusting

Us in the Developing World both Fear and Respect men like this.... Because they have the balance of the WORLD in their hands!!!! #60Minutes #FearThisGeneral!!! #BalanceIsReal!!!

Gen Milley, thank you!

That sure is a lot of medals for general that never won a war.

Ah this is the general that circumvented the chain of command and reached out to a hostile nation to let them know they would be disobeying direct orders from the president.

Wow those Princeton ROTC cadets look amazing. Especially the ones who know Chinese!!!!They are truly a blessing for this blessed country

I remember going through NCO school in the Army, and during a lesson on the military's role in the political process, our instructor told us that the US Military is strictly apolitical and impartial to the political process, nonetheless; he also said the US military is the steward of the Constitution and democracy. Although we swore allegiance to the President, our true mandate was to protect and defend the US Constitution and its democratic values. When we asked him to clarify what he meant by "the US Military is the steward of the Constitution and democracy," he paused, thought for a second, and then said, "Let me put it this way: although the US Military has no say in the political process of the country, when we raised our right hand, we swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, both foreign and domestic, and as leaders, we have to be ready to do what we have to, to uphold that oath"... we all looked at each other knowing fully well what he meant. I'm glad this train of thought goes all the way to the top Military leadership as well.

This man is one of many true American patriots that I am honored to have served under, God bless them and America.

❗ Milley and Lloyd Austin and McKenzie , they need to be held accountable! For what happened in Afghanistan Miley should be Court Martialed

An actual man!, nice change after Trumps endless whining.

Any reasonable person who loves this country and our military would never think badly of Gen Milley. We know who the hero’s is.

Thank you General for your service ❤️

Thank you for your service and protecting our democracy General Milley.

Good work, General.

That Man is a Frickin Awesome Man. Thank you for your service

These guys always get a high salaried position as a kickback for keeping the war machine going, wait and see.

General Milly makes me proud of our military.

Thank you Gen. Milley!! You are a hero to the west!

God bless Mark Milley
