TheBlockIsHot Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 "Trump attacked a gold star family. Said McCain was not a war hero. He liked people that weren't caught. After Stern asked about his 5 deferments trump said. He slept with many women without getting STDs. “It is my personal Vietnam,” he said. “I feel like a great and very brave soldier.” Trump claimed he knew more about ISIS than the generals. He said that he “felt that I was in the military” because as a boy he went to a military-themed boarding school, where he got “more training militarily than a lot of the guys that go into the military. BTW He was sent to military school by his parents as a punishment after getting kicked out of the private school he was in. He accepted a wounded-in-action veteran’s Purple Heart, saying: “I always wanted to get the Purple Heart. This was much easier.” He suggested troops responsible for distributing cash in Iraq and Afghanistan had stolen the money, saying, “I think they’re living very well right now, whoever they may be,” and “those soldiers — I wouldn’t be that surprised if the cash didn’t get there.” Though Trump talks often about veterans, he didn’t make good on a promised contribution to veterans charities after a fundraiser this year until The Post noted his failure to do so. (Years ago, he opposed veterans working as street vendors on New York’s Fifth Avenue, calling it “deplorable” to have them on the “prestigious shopping street.” Trump has called John Allen, the retired officer who coordinated efforts against the Islamic State and now backs Hillary Clinton, a “failed general.” And, though Trump said at Wednesday’s forum that the “body language” of the intelligence officials in his security briefings indicated they disagree with Obama administration policies, he previously said he didn’t trust U.S. intelligence officials. Ok let's talk some more about Obama disrespecting our military." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most educated military officers would agree. 90 percent of the military is enlisted Soldiers. Much of the enlisted ranks are uneducated. That is ripe for Trumpism.

Horsefly Posted January 19, 2018 Report Share Posted January 19, 2018 Cut from the MT article back in Oct: "The views shifted depending on which service members were surveyed, though. While 48% of enlisted troops said they approved of Trump, only 30% of officers held a favorable opinion of the commander-in-chief. Per the poll, 53% of officers said they had unfavorable views of Trump." this is not very strong support, especially among officers. As a retired officer, I concur. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very insulting for him to say he knows more than our Generals (this right here was the single deal breaker) berated a POW and ridiculed a Gold Star family. the military is a very conservative institution, the support should be overwhelming.

Bad taste and not a compliant, but didn't really disparage... nobama was also, with Beau Bergdahl and his family, so sympathetic and even contrite, I found it sickening....... Bergdahl who was an outright punk deserter, should have been executed by firing squad...Both were foolish but I found nobama to be much more offensive in the way he and dept of the Army handled that one..Ed Slovak was executed in WW 2, Beau Bergdahl should have joined Pvt Slovak.. Here were his comments. He’s not a war hero,” said Trump. “He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” That is belittling and is a line HE should have not crossed as someone who never served. the rest of your stuff about Bergdhl and Obama is totally irrelevant as we are talking Trump and his popularity in the military.
