Former generals, former prosecutors, former porn stars, former this and former that. It doesn't matter what President Trump does, what decisions he makes, the left will always exploit the protestors and ignore those who agree with him. And, if the left cannot pin down a specific charge against him, they will make s**t up.
The fact is that so far Lt. Behenna is the only one who Trump has pardoned, and under the circumstances in Behenna's case, I see no problem, he k**led a violent Iraqi prisoner. (Definitely not the first time in our history that has happened.) Pardons for the others are still on the table, none of them have yet been pardoned and most likely will not be.
From the moment Trump declared his candidacy, the liberal progressive political tactic has always been to accuse him of things he hasn't done and may never do. All president Trump has to do is talk about doing something, or consider doing something, and the left will assume he is already guilty of doing it.
Not every veteran agrees with the protestors.
Joseph Dougherty, who wrote to The World from Calais, Maine, suggested pardons would be appropriate and that the rules of modern warfare have changed.
"The forces of evil that we are combating do not abide by any Geneva conventions or other traditional rules of warfare and it makes fighting them exceptionally difficult. They use human shields and hide in the civilian population, so a******l methods are sometimes necessary to roust them out and eliminate them or gather the necessary intelligence to disrupt their activities. The face of modern warfare has changed substantially, and the techniques used to fight it must change as well."
Brad Gilbert from Lewiston, Idaho, suggested that when you're in a warzone a soldier's mental health may be c*********d. "I, for one, am a loving individual but when at war, I could be a stone-cold k**ler," Gilbert wrote. "Rehabilitation should be the focus, not incarceration, just letting them free should not be an option. Give the soldier a chance to regain their dignity. At the same time, the family of war crime victims should be offered mental health services as well as wh**ever is culturally appropriate, i.e. death benefits."
"I say review the crimes and apply reasonable standards," wrote Scott Walker, of Asheboro, North Carolina. "The previous administration was too strict and had too broad a view of war crimes. We send men into harm's way and they need to have latitude and tools to get the job done. Compare[d] to policemen and women who are exonerated for what seems to be police brutality, in reality, is a man or woman trying to survive a shift on the beat. Our troops should get the same or more latitude."
The big question is, who is going to pardon all the liberal progressives for the crimes they have committed and are continuing to commit against our Constitution and the rule of law?

You wrote, "...the liberal progressive political tactic has always been to accuse him of things he hasn't done and may never do." Wrong! The Progressive political tactic has been to inadequately keep up with the daily profusion of Trump's lies and misdeeds, that quickly fade by their overwhelming volume. Please show me where it is proven that he has been falsely accused. You take the accusations as false because you cannot stand the t***h of this man's low character.
You quote Scott Walker on war crimes? "The previous administration was too strict and had too broad a view of war crimes." for you those standards are just limp-wrist Liberal PC BS, like murdering innocent civilians who probably are or know terrorist...maybe. Better safe than sorry, right?
Listening to Brad Gilbert's comments, maybe I was wrong about the death penalty for child molesters and murderers. What about the traumas of their childhood? Who can blame them? Get them into a program. If I had been raised that way I would be a stone cold k**ler. I would take the ears and penises of my classmates after a dodge ball game I lost.
Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. ""The forces of evil that we are combating do not abide by any Geneva conventions or other traditional rules of warfare and it makes fighting them exceptionally difficult...The face of modern warfare has changed substantially, and the techniques used to fight it must change as well." Not if Christ has any say in the matter.
