Prior to MAGA Trump supporters raising more than $2 million to help with his legal costs, Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller publicly denounced help from the former president and his son, saying he would “rather sit in jail” than accept their support. (Snip) Prior to his arrest, Scheller issued a lengthy post on Facebook in which he criticized various political and military figures, including former President Trump and Gen. Michael Flynn:
President Trump. I was told by everyone to kiss the ring because of your following and power. I refuse. While I respect your foreign policy positions, I hate how you divided the country. I don’t need or want your help.

I was lazy and postponed my donation to Lieutenant Colonel Sheller. It was good timing because he does not need US MAGAs. Thank you for your service, you were the only one to go to jail for the surrender of 85 Billions in armaments. Enjoy.

President Trump did not divide this country. He exposed those who did. He brought whole boatloads of folks together that had never participated in the political process before. He united people from all walks of life, and gave us a voice we never had before. A polite no thanks would have sufficed, but you had to be an a$$. Pity.

That guy is a very strange bird to be a USMC field grade officer. If all were like him, the USMC chain of command would be non-existent with everyone doing their own thing. That won’t work. Trump should steer clear and let the system work in this case as Scheller caused his own problems.

I have to admit he’s got a giant pair! May not completely agree with him but we use to believe that any American could say anything they felt and they were still Americans! We are no longer that country but we need to get back to being it! Free speech equals free thought! Popular or Unpopular.

Trump divided the country. Hmm. I must revise my opinion of the LtCol a bit. Trump did nothing at all do divide the country. Dems and the lying Enemedia, and the corrupt FBI/KGB divided the country.

#9 - I did read the whole article and I still agree with all the above posters.
After getting blow-back he backtracked...a little...but still labeled PDT as not honest, accountable nor has integrity. "No, President Trump didn’t divide the country. But President Trump, in my humble opinion, is incapable of bringing us back together. Did he expose the corruption in the DOJ, media, and other places… yes. Was he the right person to expose the corruption at that time… maybe. Is he honest, accountable, and full of integrity… no. Would I want to work for a leader like that… no. I want a leader that will bring US together. Someone who has the courage to defend our country when called."
President Trump is the most honest and accountable man to reside in the White House in over a century. He has more integrity in his little finger than the Lt. Col. As to someone who has the courage to defend our country when called, Donald Trump answered a Call heard only in his heart to Make America Great Again; a Call that required a much greater sacrifice than sitting in the brig full of self-righteousness.

Something is very off here. When the Huns are at the door you accept help wherever it might come from. He may have done this on the advice of his attorney, or to confuse the shrinks they are making him go to.
This whole story just doesn't sound right.

Thank you, #14, for defending President Trump. Character has a way of showing itself, both good and bad. This guy just put his honor or lack of it under the spotlight. I don’t wish him harm, but neither do I wish him well. Anyone in this climate who is as dishonest as this guy when it comes to who the bad guys are, bring nothing to the table but more dishonesty and division.
Probably shouldn’t say this, but just between us, his dad and mom came off as just a bubble off. During the interview with Steve Hilton, the dad really emphasized the public funding of 2 million dollars. He was very gracious, but something about his demeanor was off putting. I would have been trying to discuss my son’s imprisonment as my first priority, but that’s just me. The dad and son share the same personality trait, both are very opinionated and come off with a decidedly contrarian bent. Scheller hurt himself with his comments and his dad did him no favor either. While I vehemently oppose his incarceration, I am deeply disappointed in his remarks and I would bet I am not alone.

I wonder what his parents are thinking? Disappointing, but it doesn't quite add up. His arrest was timed to distract from the testimony of the two traitors, and they have been relatively quiet about him. The dumb military rat said he didn't know anything about the arrest. Something smells.

Stu, you had me and now you just lost me (and scores of others) with your rhetorical spitting on the hand of someone attempting to support you.
At this point I’m starting to question Stu’s mental faculties. Article 32 (UCMJ grand jury) hearing? USMC leadership may need to consider a Medical Evauation Board (MEB) instead.

Suspicious of the guy from the beginning mainly because of his anti-boomer remark. In his personal life first his wife left him, then apparently returned. Seems like a money grubber; JMO. I think the full story on his background is yet to come out.

Yeah I read the whole thing:
"In the same post, Scheller criticized former Presidents Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. He also scolded Generals Michael Flynn, David Petraeus, and James Mattis.
"
Whose dividing the country now, Lt. Col?
He despises a CIC yet, "respect (his) foreign policy positions"? Wut?
Maybe there is a lack the integrity to oppose the real forces of division, so Orange Man bad. Good luck.

I think we can probably move on from this guy. Not sure what he is after exactly, but his opinion of Trump is for the most part wrong. It's his opinion, though, so he can live with the consequences of it and his actions.
Maybe the guy was just completely fed up with the lack of accountability from the top of command like he said. Maybe he hates all politics. Not sure what his motivations are, but if he doesn't want any help, then leave him alone.

Looks to me like he must have voted for Biden. He certainly didn't vote for Trump. How he can turn against the very people who raised 2 Million dollars to get him out of Jail says a lot about him. So, retract the offer and let him sit in Jail until Biden gets him out. That may or may not happen since Biden probably didn't know he went to Jail in the first place. Chances are the Generals decided he should be jailed and they probably will let him rot there! Obviously he's okay with that!

I read the entire article. First he goes after Trump, then he thinks he clarifies them only to make him sound mushy. If the man has an opinion and stands with it, that is America, however if he goes this way, then that way and thinks the USA needs a perfect leader, there isn't one! Nobody will be perfect for everyone. We need a President that Loves our Country, loves our way of life, doesn't think the Gov't needs to control people, values Liberty, Justice and Freedom. Personally, I will cut him some slack, being in the brig can't be easy, but he needs to learn don't bite the hand that is trying to free you.

The poor guy doesn’t understand the headwinds faced by Trump. He couldn’t get done what had to be done because of the Deep State, RINO’s, and media fighting him and the impeachment nonsense. It’s amazing that he accomplished what he did in spite of Russiagate and then a Democrat Congress. He should stop being a martyr and accept Trump’s help.

While he may reject Trump and his assistance, he could have done it in a more positive manner. He has now alienated a lot of people and lost a lot of support. He could have stuck to his principles without looking crazy to some people.

Sight unseen, never met the man, but these rants are very typical of drunk when posting or high when posting. Before the internet if you met someone displaying these characteristics you would probably notice flecks of foam forming around the individual's corners of his mouth. The points he/she/them/it/why/how/now would be ranting about would be disjointed and hard to follow - and that would be with you standing next to the individual and telling he etal to calm down.

At the end of WWII, my father had risen through the ranks to become a Major. 102nd Ozarks, artillary. Because of his training in law he was tapped to help with the Nuremberg trials. He investigated nazi factory camps. When his term was completed, they wanted tobtransfer him to the pacific under Douglas MacArthur, and offered him his colonel's wings and a promise of political positions once the war was over. My father chose not to.
1. He knew MacArthur and thought he was a vainglorious fool, worse than Patton, and with less than half the ability.
2. He'd been dealing with high rank officers the entire time he was over there. They were mostly positions gained by money and supported by Democrats - often ranking Klan members back home. People like Eisenhower and Bradley were the exception back then. I could tell you lots of stories where my dad temporarily transfered a man of color, who had behaved bravely, even when seriously wounded, to other units, so they could be awarded the decorations they deserved. The generals didnt like the idea of black heroes.
I'm not saying Scheller is one of those b**s, but i suspect from his words that he is fearful of supporting a righteous man. But i say to him, why did you open your mouth, then?

To be honest, President. Trump and his twitters many times were very insulting but true. So on point but demeaning in many cases. 6 years of rabid media shrilling all of his moves as demonic, people are loath to return to the constant shrilling but sincerely missing the strength and integrity of his presidential policies.

Col. Scheller is wrong about Trump. he did not divide the country. Obama did by playing the race card and binging in illegals across the border with impunity. all Trump wanted to do was bring the country back on track. I'm sorry that the powers that be want to punish him for telling the truth. There was another military officer who suffered this punishment before WWII and he was Billy Mitchell. They made a movie out of his treatment. Despicable government behavior

When someone in the spotlight starts offering opinions that are the result of medias constant propaganda, it is pitiful. Does not matter if it is some very stupid actor or this guy. Stick to what you know, which was the criminal behavior of military commanders. Topics like what President Trump did to the culture or who should lead the country and how they should behave in order to do that, are subjects far too nuanced for a soundbite article in a media that hates traditions that made the USA great.

Trump did not divide the country as the corrupt Democrats of all political species were doing that long before Trump was elected President. The Democrats were on the offensive making all sorts of bogus claims against Trump from the day he was elected to sabotage his presidency and are still doing that. To date the Democrats have been found to have been always wrong with their false claims against Trump, and by their current actions are showing that they are scared to death that Trump will run again in 2024 and be re-elected President with a wimpy Republican controlled Congress behind him.
