Military Times<\/a> took a poll of 951 troops (66% identified themselves as enlisted service members) and found that more than 50% would choose Trump over Clinton who attracted 25% of military folks. 21% said they wouldn’t vote if those were their only choices. Bernie Sanders does better in a Trump\/Sanders match up, garnering 38% and 11% voting with their feet.<\/p>\nIt’s really not surprising. The Democrats have consistently shown us their ass on issues like military readiness and national security. I’m pretty sure Trump would not crowd source decisions on those issues. But, then, who knows what he thinks about the military and our issues – he’s never been clear on that. But Sanders and Clinton are clear how they come down – Sanders avoided the draft in the 60s, like Trump. <\/p>\n
Hillary fake-enlisted in the Marines and fake-ducked sniper fire once. Her husband, however, slashed military spending while driving up the op-tempo with Meals-on-Wheels deployments. Her husband’s secretary of state wanted to know why the military couldn’t be used more often to cram our policies down other countries’ collective throats. The current Democrat president has gutted the military services to the bone and slashed pay and benefits leaving us barely able to defend ourselves, sending the troops off to war without allowing them to call it war. The social justice warriors direct foot traffic in the halls of the Pentagon. Who wants four or eight more years of that confusion?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
