That's true of everyone who worked for Trump and came into the government as a Trump appointee or staffer, but I would argue Milley is in a different boat. Milley was appointed Army Chief by Obama, and never engaged with the political side of things. He did have some eyebrow-raising proximity to crazy Trump things, but even then was viewed as the least crazy person in the room.
