The Lack of Leadership at the Top Promotes Chaos -- which is unfolding now

This morning while listening to the news, I could not help but remember a thought that used to run through my head while serving in the U.S. Military.  While serving in the military, a soldier cannot help but wonder how this massive military operation works on a global scale.  Furthermore, there is a tremendous disconnect between military soldiers and civilians in regards to understanding the military.  That is to be expected, given the undercover nature of the massive fighting force.



With that being said, one recurring thought that ran through my head was: when the military is unleashed on the streets of America, there is a real problem.



The last option that is necessary is military soldiers patrolling the streets of America.  


Civilians do not want to have the military patrol and keep order on the streets of America.  Why?  Because that is a sign of chaos.  America is amid a pandemic along with a race war.  The streets of America are being ravaged in rage by protesters.



Which throughout 24 hours with the terrible (and unjustified) killing of George Floyd has eclipsed any fear of being in close contact for reasons of spreading a potentially deadly virus?  Coronavirus disappeared -- was overshadowed by the rage of a race war?  Amazing.



The health of America is at stake.  And what is being done at the federal level?  Our Commander-in-Chief is doing precisely what is displayed in the picture below:

The picture above shows a thousand words regarding President Trump's rumored inability to concentrate on presentations.  In the image, the President is clearly not paying attention to the display -- which could be potentially significant.  His Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross is looking at him in disbelief -- which is entirely concerning.



If President Trump displays the same inability to concentrate on important matters which impact global health or national security, what are we as citizens to think?  Is the Country safe under his leadership?  If an alien shot down from another world and observed the current state of affairs, what would they think? 



The affairs of the nation impact the relations of the world.  If the most powerful person on earth is not able to pay attention, then the current state of chaos should be of no surprise to those watching in disbelief.  I am personally shocked by the photo above.  Even though everything I read suggested that the content of the photo above was happening.  Welcome to the reality check.
