Democratic Senator Mark Warner said the U.S. military's leadership might act as a restraint on President Donald Trump if necessary. He made the remark in a television interview on Wednesday.

The comment highlights ongoing tensions between Trump and some national security officials. It refers to concerns that the military may resist orders it views as unlawful or destabilizing.
