I am looking for help: with the help of a fantastic RA, Alireza Mamdouhi, I have created a googlesheet to crowdsource a list of violations of American Civil-Military Relations norms by the Trump Administration. My inspiration was hearing about a panel on US civ-mil during the Trump era that concluded that it ain't so bad. Um, yeah, it is. Because so much has happened over the past 16 months, it is easy to lose track. So, here's the list. Please comment to add crises, to raise questions about our coding, to help us come up with category coding.
This is my first effort at this kind of thing, so any help would be most appreciated.
For specialists in civ-mil, if you want editing privileges, let me know.
Again, the idea here is to document the many ways in which the Trump Administration is undermining the norms that buttress civilian control of the US military and keep it out of politics.
