The horror, advancing to public office soldiers who have placed their lives in harm’s way to protect the country, as opposed to the politicians who sent them there.

My only concern are the number of alpha males in that group. How does that work exactly? :)

Hardcore commies were OK with the MSM. But God forbid a patriotic former military man.

Remember how the Left criticized Trump for ‘dissing’ military Generals.

Gee, then whey is Trump appointing so many Generals to his Cabinet?

LOL!

"Obama Urges Soldiers to Question Trump’s Authority, ‘Criticize Our President’

The photo shows a typical current group of fawning little snowflake military members that are supposed to protect us.

Oh, yeah, I'm real confident about being protected by those alternate lifestyle, gender neutal, diverse military members.

Exactly, the creature who joins the military to get a free sex change is definitely not one I want in the service..
