Mass outrage on the left ensued after photos emerged of United States sailors aboard the USS Wasp wearing “Make Aircrew Great Again” patches with President Trump’s likeness on them.

The images were first reported by White House reporters traveling with the president on his trip to Japan, where he stopped at a U.S. military base in Yokosuka:

After the photos surfaced online, leftist commentators and pundits began calling for the airmen to be punished, claiming they had violated the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) for engaging in political activity while in uniform.

They have been worn since at least September 2017.

Good, they hate the military anyway so you may as well give them a reason.

[stinkerpot65]

Every Democrat is a violent totalitarian thug.

[BenLurkin]

“Hope and Change” patches would have been A-OK.

Encouraged even.

[Telepathic Intruder]

Political activity while in uniform? Do they know who the Commander in Chief is?

[Migraine]

I defer to my colleagues who study civilian/military relations, but I find this worrisome - the military must be loyal to civilian control and the Constitution, not part of a presidential personality cult, said one little lefty peckerneck professor.

Doesn't this treetard know that the President personifies civilian control of the military? Is the truth that far over his pointed head?

Lawless bastards want to hurt our troops but defend scumbag leftwing coup plotters.

[goodnesswins]

“Triggers”...ya know...that’s a very volatile word. ...I don’t think the media should be allowed to use it

[Spruce]

My kid has some patches of an RJ-135 doing unspeakable things to an AWACS.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

Che Guevara patches would have been fine with them.

[stanne]

He’s the president. It is not a political campaign.

The left does not have to like the patch. They’re allowed to complain, by the first amendment- protected by the Make Aircrew Gdeat Again patch-wearing troops

While it is against UCMJ law to criticize the CIC, I don’t think it’s illegal to promote him

[CodeToad]

Liberals are our country’s enemies.

[aomagrat]

Next they will be complaining about our troops wearing American flags.

[unread]

Mass outrage on the left.... Neener neener..! :)

[Sequoyah101]

Oh my. How terrible.

[nickedknack]

Other ‘RAT-approved patches:

“You Didn’t Build That!”

“If You Like Your Doctor...”

“I Don’t Recall”

“I Did Not Have Sex With That Woman”

“I Hate Trump...and America!”

[Hulka]

Political? Not like stacking clapping seals around Obama whenever he costed the troops.

Please.

Makes you want to repeal the 22nd amendment, doesn’t it?
