In the latest example of political antics, Michigan Democrat Elissa Slotkin managed to add a fresh layer of absurdity to her party’s ongoing circus. Slotkin, when pressed to point out any illegal military orders supposedly given by Donald Trump, resorted to referencing none other than a Hollywood movie: “A Few Good Men.” That’s right—when confronted with reality, she punted to fiction. Slotkin’s choice to cite a drama about military misconduct from the imagination of Aaron Sorkin shows just how disconnected the left is from the concrete concerns of everyday Americans.
Slotkin’s escapade not only reveals a scramble for excuses reminiscent of “a Hollywood plot,” but also underscores how far Democrats will go to smear their opponents. Armed with empty rhetoric and dramatizations, they continue the left’s favorite game: demonizing Donald Trump. But when it comes down to specifics, they’re backed into a corner, waving a script instead of facts. Now, instead of providing clear evidence of unlawful orders, Slotkin and her allies are busy defending their indefensible actions.
Treasonous CIA Senator Elissa Slotkin defends calls for military to defy CIC “illegal orders” by comparing consequences troops may face by using the movie “A Few Good Men” and Nuremberg as examples.
These people are off their meds

Slotkin’s embarrassing performance isn’t just personal comedy; it’s part of a broader tactic designed to sow discord within the military. Envisioning herself as some modern-day Jack Nicholson might score virtual points with liberal circles, but it does nothing for the stability and respect America’s armed forces deserve. It’s astonishing that someone with her background, once trusted with national security, resorts to blurring the line between films and real-world governance.
The media, predictably, has downplayed Slotkin’s theatrics while capitalizing on an opportunity to bash Trump for pointing out what anyone with a dash of common sense can see. The left labels “seditious” at every turn, yet seems oblivious to how undermining trust in the military chain of command does far more harm than good. Slotkin’s antics prove one thing: Democrats will stoop to the depths of sensationalism to keep their narrative alive, regardless of how harmful or far-fetched it becomes.
Isn’t it time we call out Slotkin and her crew’s antics for what they truly are—plain political posturing wrapped in Hollywood fantasy? If Democrats think quoting Tom Cruise movies is a valid political strategy, they’ve got another thing coming.
