This guy should not be in charge of a gardening club, much less all of the country's military.

Reminds me of lyrics from Don Henley/Frail Grasp on the Big Picture:

"And we pray to our Lord
Who we know is American
He reigns from on high
He speaks to us through middlemen
And he shepherds his flock
We sing out and we praise His name
He supports us in war
He presides over football games
And the right will prevail
All our troubles shall be resolved
We have faith in the Lord
Unless there's money or sex involved"
