Yes. They approved of that action pretty overwhelmingly, but the vast majority did not approve of that president.... or of his use of drones.

Trump folks always dismiss polls, until they show good news. They they appear to accept them.

George W. Bush had thousands of innocent Iraqis slaughtered. Yet he gets a pass?

W's military approval was in the 60's or higher his whole time in office, Obama started out in the 40's and quickly slid to the 30's where he stayed.

The military leans right, so it makes sense they wouldn't approve of Democrats that lean left.... especially Democrats like Obama who showed disdain for the military on numerous occasions.

Disdain? You mean like what Trump said over and over again about John McCain?

John McCain isn't the military.... but yeah, Obama viewed the military the same as Trump viewed McCain.

Democrats are so predictable, aren't they?

Incorrect as usual as you don't give the entire story.

You left off the part, that in this poll at this time, Obama only had 34% approval. So Trump is doing far far better than his predecessor.

Amazing that.
