If Trump starts to appear in a military uniform, will Republicans finally break ranks?

I'm not saying it's likely, but you know he's at least considered it.

For X = literally anything, the answer is NO for any meaningful definition of "break ranks"

[the general universe of concerns, disapproval, and disturbance often cited by Collins, Murkowski, and Romney are NOT meaningful rank breakage]

I forgot his name. The guy with all of those fake medals pinned on.

He'll have medals like "Helper of the Year".
