Col. Mitchell was quite popular in his day, various newpaper articles, a book, and the public court martial made many in America side with him, over the image of a rigid and unchanging military.
He assumed his comments would get him a nice public forum to express his ideas, and the army would either ask him to leave, or he would have his ideas in some way accepted.
He made comments to his wife that if he could, and using her father's money he would run for president as a Democrate.
What if after the court martial in 1926, Mitchell resigns as OTL but he undergoes the political route?
What would his political life be like? Could he change anything? Could he become President?
