Oh, it's coming

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

UPDATE:

On Tuesday, after one of his primary advisers quit, saying that the Secretary had violated his oath, Esper claimed that the president* ran an okey-doke on him by telling him they were only going out to inspect a vandalized bathroom in Lafayette Park, and that’s another in the now endless groups of words I never thought I’d type. Then, on Wednesday, at a Pentagon briefing, Esper broke with El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago's spasm regarding using active-duty military against civilian protests. From CNN:

"The option to use active duty forces in a law enforcement role should only be used as a matter of last resort, and only in the most urgent and dire of situations. We are not in one of those situations now. I do not support invoking the Insurrection Act," he said during a briefing at the Pentagon. Esper also attempted to explain his use of the word "battlespace" when discussing quelling violence on the streets amid civil unrest. "It's something we use day in and day out ... it's part of our military lexicon that I grew up with...it's not a phrase focused on people," he said. "In retrospect I would have used different wording.”

Yes, I’m sure he would have, and some of that "different wording" likely would include the phrase, "No, thank you for the offer, Mr. President, but I have a better offer at the local Dairy Queen."
