Retired Marine Gen. John Allen: Trump's threats of military force may be 'the beginning of the end of the American experiment'

"Donald Trump isn't religious, has no need of religion, and doesn't care about the devout, except insofar as they serve his political needs. The President failed to project any of the higher emotions or leadership desperately needed in every quarter of this nation during this dire moment," Allen wrote.

"So, while June 1 could easily be confused with a day of shame and peril if we listen to Donald Trump, if instead we listen to Terrence Floyd, it is a day of hope. So mark your calendars—this could be the beginning of the change of American democracy not to illiberalism, but to enlightenment," Allen wrote.

"But it will have to come from the bottom up. For at the White House, there is no one home."
