Apparently, he expects a participation trophy.
Yesterday:
Senator Eric Schmitt
[July 28, 2023]
I’m proud to have played a critical role in securing funding for our military installations in Missouri, as well as combatting the Biden Administration’s blatant attempts to infuse our military with woke DEI policies in this year’s NDAA.
[….]
Some of the responses:
Why would you be against diversity equity and inclusion? Please explain. You don’t want blacks, women or gays in the service? Just straight white males
You think minorities, gay people and “woke” individuals don’t serve? No one needs diversity education? Interesting point of view.
On July 26 some 75 years ago President Truman signed Executive Order 9981 which banned segregation in the armed forces and called for the abolition of discrimination. You are using President Truman’s desk yet you are trying to turn back all that has been accomplished since that EO. He’s probably turning over in his grave
Hmmm, that’s what people said when Blacks were allowed to serve in the military. And Women. And gays. Sad that our Missouri Senator is living in the 1940’s.
Breitbart article provides no defense of your anti-DEI stance, but it’s an interesting choice for posting.
Talk to me how you are fixing the issue with Tuberville holding up promotions for the military? I would think that would be a critical issue that needs to be resolved.
With cases of sexual assault in the military still rising, it sounds like “a wedge” is already there. Comrades in arms usually don’t sexually assault other comrades in arms.
Thank you Senator! Keep looking out for, and fighting against, the nonsense that our military is dealing with from these progressive liberals!! Stay strong! [….]
Please keep fighting the crazy liberals. White liberal women are so coocoo .
Your Awesome! Please Help Impeach Jing Jong Joe and drain the damn Swamp! It’s TIME AND you Can Do it! Get those fg Rhinos straight!
You’re.

Hey senator we need diversity this country was built on diversity. Many great units have dependent on diversity. The wind talkers world war II. How about German descent people who could speak German from world war II or how about in the European campaign of world war II the Asian Union them guys did great. How about the Red tails. He’s all diverse groups and it continued on even when we went into any country we have people from that country living in this country but it’d be the first generation or a 100th generation. You have no idea even left work is you’re just following the words of a madman who just wants to divide us. You haven’t done anything for we the people the only thing you’ve ever done is for your donors not your constituents. Do you think the rich your rule and everybody else for second class citizens. The rich are not aristocracy remember we got rid of our King we can get rid of you just as easy without the violence
You’re an unadulterated IDIOT! YOU REPRESENT MISGUIDED PEOPLE BECAUSE YOU ARE MISGUIDED! YOU ARE SPIRITUALLY, MENTALLY AND EMOTIONALLY NOT FIT TO HOLD ANY POSITION ON ANY LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT…. JUST LIKE THAT NUMBSKULL, DONALD TRUMP, THAT YOU WORSHIP.
