Support From Retired Admirals And Generals Grows To 120 After Successful Commander-In-Chief Forum

(NEW YORK, NY) September 9, 2016 – Donald J. Trump for President today announced 32 additional endorsements from retired admirals and generals, joining the 88 named earlier in the week. These 120 military leaders are in addition to numerous other distinguished former flag officers backing Mr. Trump including Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, USA (Ret.) and Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, USA (Ret.). These names were added following Wednesday’s Commander-In-Chief Forum, showing Mr. Trump has the respect and trust from a number of military leaders across all branches of service. Recent polls have also shown Mr. Trump as the overwhelming choice among military voters.

“I am grateful for the growing support of highly respected retired generals and admirals who have been so successful in defending our country. Working with our armed forces is the most important responsibility of the presidency. I thank each of these strong leaders for their dedicated service to our country and their confidence in me to serve as commander-in-chief. Our foreign policy must be guided by the principle of peace through strength, and to do this we must commit to strengthening our military so that it remains the finest fighting force on the planet.” – Donald J. Trump

Awesome news- especially on the heels of the recently completed forum. Definitely a thumb in the eye to Obama and Illary from these military leaders.

I saw some former general last night on one of the Fox shows who is a Hillary supporter. As a military vet myself, I can’t understand how anyone who served can support that witch.

I realize these men are retired, but it still makes me wonder that if Obama enacts martial law and stops the election, will the military go along with him or buck?

One would have to conclude that the General supporting Hitlery wouldn’t mind being left to die by Hitlery just as the four patriots she ignored in Benghazi.

Who gave the stand down order?

I view that kind of thing as absolute proof that liberal dogma trumps everything, including self-preservation, logic, and principles.

Nobody who has even a smidgen of respect or care for the military and their families could even remotely support any liberal candidate.

Good men and women, still concerned about their country and everyday Americans.

There seems be a long list of retired Navy Admirals.

Hell, I didn’t serve in our armed forces, and she so offends me on the issue of military matters, that I could never vote for her.

On many other issues as well, but this goes beyond simply having our troops back..., it’s them and the whole damned nation I’m concerned about.
