The rank and file are pretty happy with the idea of a Trump presidency.

It’s the Pentagon elite who hobnob with the Washington establishment who are nervous.

If Obama’s presidency didn’t do that, I regard it as basically impossible.

I saw this Michael Hayden fool on TV the other day.

He sounded like a moronic drunk. Must be a Hillary supporter.

I wish there would be some polling of ACTIVE DUTY ONLY . Whom do they want ? Anon polling should not violate any of their rules about political activity .

I for one really want to know .
I am not interested in hearing from ex/former military
political paid consultants and minions of the establishment
political Parties .

Let’s hear what the troops say .

A Facebook based polling site ?
Something that is easy for them to get to .

I wonder if Hayden knows that the military people polled after voting yesterday had voted for Trump. Hayden is a lib a-hole.

These interviews by Generals and ex-Generals on TV are things Trump hates. Too much info is put “out there” for all to hear/see, including in countries where they shouldn’t be seen.

Sure, if Trump gives a blatantly illegal order, he’ll find it tough getting people to obey it.

Why would you say that? Obama's admin gave illegal orders and people hopped to and obeyed his command.

Look at the border situation. All of his commands and orders have broken laws but people are doing what his admin are ordering be done.

What happened in Oregon on Federal land where they murdered the Cowboy? Who gave the order? The Obama administration. Was it justified to kill an unarmed trespasser? If I killed an unarmed tresspasser I would go to jail. So an illegal order was given to execute the trespasser by Obama administration and it was obeyed.

See, when you are president, dictator or king, people follow your orders to the tee.

If it didn’t happen under muslim Boi then it ain’t happening.

Yep. I would think it far more likely for the military to object to someone with a track record of letting her people die in the field and blaming the military for not being mission-ready than anything Trump might come up with.

What do they think he’s going to do, destroy the middle eastern nations and then arm jihadis from one end to the other?

Your kidding, right. I did not see the sarc tag but I know you are kidding, right?

The "Fall and Ring Hop Committees" sound interesting.

What blantantly illegal orders (as opposed to very stupid policies) did Obama issue to the military?

He’s not Adm. Woolsey, this guy was Air Force satellite geek and NSA guy.

Effin' Zoomies...lol.

Just kidding folks, loved my two years at Hahn & Spangdahlem. BG James Albritton, then Wing Cdr at Hahn, was a really great guy and a bada$$ fighter pilot, to boot.

I take it you’re trying to be sarcastic, but actually that stuff is well respected for line officers.

“The rank and file are pretty happy with the idea of a Trump presidency.

All I’m seeing is support for Trump. Cruz squandered his support by causing govt shutdown of military projects in multiple years.

Backwards.

My grandson is on an Aircraft Carrier. He says morale is very bad.

I think morale would go up quickly with Trump.
