USFK and INDOPACOM Commanders Come Out Against Any USFK Troop Withdrawals

One thing to remember about troop withdrawals you have to have some place to put them back in the U.S. Money would have to be spent to build the facilities to support relocating those troops. Right now 2ID is housed on a brand new base, Camp Humphreys paid for mostly by the ROK government:

U.S. military leaders in the Indo-Pacific presented negative views about the idea of a U.S. troop reduction in South Korea on Thursday, amid lingering concerns that the Trump administration could seek a troop cut or realignment to focus more on threats from China.

During a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, U.S. Indo-Pacific Command Commander Adm. Samuel Paparo Jr. warned the withdrawal or reduction of American troops from South Korea would raise a “higher” likelihood of a North Korean invasion, while U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) Commander Gen. Xavier Brunson said a troop reduction would be “problematic.”

As U.S. President Donald Trump is charging ahead with his “America First” agenda, speculation has persisted that his administration could look to curtail overseas military involvement and call for allies to take greater responsibilities for their own security.

Adm. Samuel Paparo Jr. clearly spends more time on his hair than reading the room.

The correct answer is, “Whatever pleases the God Emperor.”

Don’t tell Korporal Vance!

Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said “actions to undermine the chain of command or to subvert President Trump’s agenda will not be tolerated at the Department of Defense.”

One of Trump’s mistakes his first term was to empower experienced government operators.

But they didn’t work for him.

They protected the Deep State that they built their career upon.

Now he values loyalty over everything else.

Let’s see how this works out

It’s not going to be the US leaving, it will be commie Lee acting on behalf of his CCP masters who demand the US leave.

All the left has is envy, racism, and self-loathing.

And their expiration date is coming up fast.

That’s why they’re flailing so much.

They would be much happier if they got more exercise, ate more fiber, and had normal relationships with other humans instead of just themselves and whomever reheats their frozen dinners.
