And in keeping with the leftist bent of any Gannett publication they had to tell you that most of the military, 62% hates Trump, which is BS. Clicking on the link to take you to the poll to see the internals you'll see they've already taken it off their site.

Poll: Military Prefers Trump Over Clinton 2-1

Not surprising, but the 0bama regime, along with the clinton crime syndicate, will suppress the military vote like they successfully did in the past.

It doesn’t matter. The Democrats make certain few military votes are ever counted. Those are the absentee votes most likely to be discarded because they arrived too late. Who is to blame for that? Why, the government military mail service, of course.
Rigged, rigged, rigged.

That is a huge ABH (anybody but her) vote! Only 21%? Wow.

I would wager that if only Army combat arms MOSs were polled, Hillary’s support would be less than ten percent.

That was in July, but no surprise. I feel sorry for those who leave after 2017 after 20 years, they might have their discharge sign by Hillary. Maybe some will accept the signature just to get out earlier than planned.

I wanted to retire in 1992 but left 6 months early in 1991 so my retirement certificate would be signed by George HW Bush and not the draft-dodging, military-hating Bill Clinton. Knew a lot of guys that did the exact same thing.

I’m suspicious of the poll. I find it hard to believe Hillary’s numbers are that high inside the military.

because 62% against and 49% for Trump doesn’t add up to 100%. But then maybe they were counting the illegal votes that are sure to happen in their against column. Common Core Math???????????? or Clinton Lying Math???????????????????.

I just listen to Chris Hammer Retired Navy Commander who is #NeverTrump and he is such an asshole. He claims all security people are #NeverTrump. These Jackasses are the ones who don't fight wars like we did in WW2.

There is a quiet respect and support given to Mr. Trump coming from both the active military and the veterans.

Lots of identity politics.

I’d wager 95% of her support is homosexual, black, or female in support roles.

Only 2:1?

Obama sure has done a lot of damage to the military in eight years. I would have expected 6:1, at least.
