What did these people sign up and take an oath to defend if not America itself?

I guess the only news they get in the barracks is from CNN ??

This. The arrogance of the right. To think you are the only ones who can care about America.
You demonize half of America (over half) like they are somehow less than you and not "As American" as you because they are going to vote for Biden.


I am a Democrat. I love America. I am not in favor of rioting. Of violence or destruction....erasing history, or destroying the flag.

The sheer arrogance and ignorance to keep painting us as a portrait that is not what we are, and hurling such ugly, evil, desperate, hateful names. You are listening to Trump. He says these awful things because he would say or do anything, no matter how awful or distasteful, not to lose...



You all truly make me ill, the stuff that you say about other Americans, especially ones serving their country.
I have had family members who served their country in the US Military and some have been Democrats and some have been Republicans.
To assume that you are superior to other Americans because you don't like their political party or Presidential choices is rich.

Thank god we actually have a more peaceful President, who wholeheartedly supports the military and military lives

Thank Goodness our next President will have the sanity, sense and decency that the one we have now so sorely lacks.

Really Cape Cod Todd, it's very easy to believe. The soldiers haven't forgiven their commander in chief for saluting a North Korean General and for goofing off while the National Anthem was being played. Neither do they care much for him for supporting traitors from the Confederacy.

Even if this is true it does not speak to a poll which is a sampling of individuals.

What I see over and over again is rejection of any information by Trump supporters that doesn't support the notion that Trump is a "great president" that we should all worship.

Well there are more of us than "the few" that you know and for many if not most of us would like adult leadership in the White House and Trump is incapable of meeting that requirement...
