Yes it absolutely can be.

A, he has fired over 100 senior officers in the chain of command with little to no notice or turnover and promoted up sycophants with no experience and the only requirement is pledging fealty to the king. My father-in-law was a logistics officer in the Marines. When he retired a decade ago, it was required that he have a full two-year turnover with the incoming officer to cover all of the logistical details for the MEF. They flat out wouldn't approve his retirement with less notice than that. When the Log-O in my unit got their promotion notice, it was over a year before they pinned and moved to their next command because of the amount of turnover needed. And this was just battalion level. Under this idiot, turnover is a few weeks. If that.

B, we are 19 months into this shit show. Not 10. And that ignores the 4 years of damage he did his first term that can't be undone. You can't fire officers and senior enlisted with 20+ years of experience and replace them with new ones in 4 years. The linear passage of time just doesn't work like that.

Efficient logistics is the first thing to go with incompetent leadership. It's the single most important and fragile piece of the military. And it's seen not just in the military, but in the commercial side as well. Bad top-down leadership is the quickest way to destroy an organization.

I really think the jagoffs in charge thought this would be just like the Venezuela situation where they could instantly topple the government and then run Iran like a client state.
