I don't think anyone is saying his intent is damaging our defense. He is
reverent of the military. At least, until one of them disagrees with him.
I will say he is causing damage to our military with his chaotic decision making. An article in The Atlantic discusses the problems the military are having due to his "style." That articles discusses it with several 3-4 star generals.
He has also openly called for civil war in the even things don't go his way. His level of animosity and rhetoric against his rivals (meaning anyone that disagrees with him) is also problematic. The sort of behavior that this (and other generals) describe in the Examiner article, for the first time in my lifetime, has essentially been openly encouraged by the president.
The damage is being done. That is difficult to ignore. He is not the only cause, but is certainly an accelerant in my view.
