        Generals appointed to Nat'l Security Advisor and Homeland Security? I can't fathom a background more suited for either position... #wtf

        It goes against the idea of civilian control. Have them in one or two spots, sure, but not as many as Trump plans on.

        seriously? When generals are working on defending our country that's okay, no worries there. But when trump hires them ppl freak out?

        Thought the Coast Guard was under DHS. What's wrong with a military man who can bring organizational insight into the process? #Trump
