History is apparently not his strong suit.

I like how he thinks he's being stealth but then posts his shite all over social media.

Can that kind of thing get you in trouble in the military?

Future five star general!
Hope his military acumen is superior to his economic abilities!

Umm yep
Not bc its communist but for any politician.
Although communism goes against everything he stood for when he took his oath when enlisting and after earning his commission or the constitution for that matter

IIRC political views are accepted of enlisted, not of the officer corps.

When I enlisted, they specifically asked if you had ever been a member of the Communist Party. It was a bar to enlistment.
That was 26 years ago, though.

What I don't get is this can't be the only first time this has been talked about at West Point.
Surely a cadet in his class had to have seen his behaviors and such

Unfortunately I doubt anything comes of it
But a young e4 can say a female in his company looks pretty and can get the boot for sexual harassment

So how is he still in after all this?

Good chance this was swept under the rug while he was an army cadet at West Point.
He graduated in May 2016, he should be a 1st Lt by now, not a butter bar still.

The U.S. Military Academy strives to develop leaders who internalize the academy's motto of Duty, Honor, Country, and who live the Army values. Second Lieutenant Rapone's actions in no way reflect the values of the U.S. Military Academy or the U.S. Army. As figures of public trust, members of the military must exhibit exemplary conduct, and are prohibited from engaging in certain expressions of political speech in uniform. Second Lieutenant Rapone's chain of command is aware of his actions and is looking into the matter. The academy is prepared to assist the officer's chain of command as required.
