Yes. But the way Milley was spastically flapping his hands around looked completely wrong to me. Almost like his body language was inverted with his words, which were clearly trying to distract attention away from the SoD buffoon.
Yeah he's obviously not doing that, or he's not very good at it. Sounded like he was just mumbling whatever he could think of to pacify the reporter.
