More than 82 percent said the same about Clinton, the Democratic nominee, with 30 percent of those pledging to vote for her voicing displeasure with the choice.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is the worst presidential election I have ever seen,&#8221; said one Air Force master sergeant who responded to the survey. &#8220;How in the world could we only have Hillary and Trump as the options?&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I feel ya. However, the Republicans have no one to blame except themselves. They thought that they could be Democrat Lite and win the election. After eight years of Obama, it was theirs to lose, and Behold! They did it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2016\/07\/17\/politics\/hillary-clinton-donald-trump-cnn-poll\/\">CNN<\/a> has Clinton on top, this morning.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In a two-way matchup, Clinton tops Trump 49% to 42%.<br \/>\nBoth Clinton and Trump have bumped up their support among those who did not back them through the nomination process. Among those who say they&#8217;d rather see Sanders become the Democratic nominee, 79% now back Clinton, up slightly from 74% in June, while 74% of those who want someone other than Trump to be the Republican nominee now back him, up from 67% in June. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Republicans have misinterpreted their base for the last thirty years and they&#8217;ve paid the price for it. But, this time, the country is in the shitter and it&#8217;s only going further down the drain because of the GOP&#8217;s incompetence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Military Times says that folks in uniform aren&#8217;t happy that their only choices in this &hellip; <a title=\"Military; Hillary and Trump are bad choices\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=66948\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Military; Hillary and Trump are bad choices<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":66949,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-66948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-military-issues"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66948","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=66948"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66948\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/66949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=66948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=66948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=66948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
