1. If this is true,
 
It's appalling. They want to fight more wars? The SPLC was warning years ago the military was being infiltrated by white supremacists, and I'm beginning to believe they were spot on.

Not trashing, but I liked this story:

15. I think it is the guns.

The military people I know who are heavy Trumpers are scared Hillary will take their precious guns. Not all ex military and current military are pro gun but a large percentage of them are.

 I had a repairman here the other day, young guy ex military, two tours in Iraq. I did what I always do and thanked him for his service, he said if I wanted to thank him I would take down the Hillary sign that is under my flag pole in my front yard. He said the Stars and Stripes should not be close to anything "killery". He said she was going to take his guns away and make it impossible to defend his country. 

This guy thinks people go into the military just to freeload off the government:

19. I've got two people who are ex-military and both teabaggers. One lives down the street from me. He retired after 20 years, collects his pension, got a six-figure defense job at the navy shipyard, and hits up every perk he can get his hands on. The other is an extended in-law, who wishes he did the 20&out thing, because his pension is not that high. He's in the reserves and he and his wife hit up the base stores for everything. He is also a teabagger. They are all pissed that their property taxes are high and actively fight with the township to get workers fired. There is another (non-military) teabagger I know who fought for the schools when her three kids were in school, the year her youngest graduated high school, she became a tea party candidate running to minimize the school district!

On a second note just because you retarded half wits bought into the jihadist sympathizers script it doesn`t mean normal people can`t have empathy for the loss and realize it is also a stunt he was happy to go along with.

Didn't Jon Carry (who served in Vietnam, by the way) imply that people in the Military weren't the brightest during his ill fated campaign in 2004?


That ended well for him, didn't it...

No, what doesn't fit into their conception of how shit should be run is how the lgbt agenda is being forced down their throats by the democrats.

Probably most DUmmies do not recall, but when Bill Clinton invaded Serbia for some reason back in the 1998, I recall him giving full credit to Mrs Clinton for the idea, which, I recall, he said she came up with over their Christmas holiday.

I also recall it as the time that NATO went from being a defensive organization to becoming an offensive organization.

Alas, since it was a war popular with Democrats I don't recall very much more because the media hardly covered it except for the bombings.

CNN)The US Army said Wednesday it was a mistake for a local unit to identify Hillary Clinton as a potential threat during a training presentation and has halted the practice.
A slide from the presentation, which was widely circulated online this week after it was posted on a Facebook group page, showed the former secretary of state beneath photos of Chelsea Manning, Edward Snowden, Gen. David Petraeus and Nidal Hassan under the headline: "Who is the threat? Insiders."

"We have confirmed that the slide was developed 18 months ago and used locally as a part of a training presentation on best practices for handling classified material and maintaining operational security," the US Army Training and Doctrine Command said in a statement. "As is common with Army training requirements, the local unit was given latitude to develop their own training products to accomplish the overall training objective."
"This particular presentation had not been reviewed or approved by the unit's leadership, and does not reflect the position of the Army," the statement continued. "The training presentation has since been removed."
The slide was used at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri, according to reports.
Clinton's inclusion would appear to be inspired by her use of a private email server during her four years at the State Department. While FBI Director James Comey said in July that Clinton's actions were "extremely careless," he recommended that no criminal charges be brought against her and none were.

It happened 18 months ago so Trump doesn't get the credit for this one.

6. As Commander in Chief, I would have someone's ass for this.
Everybody from the director of the FBI down to the dipshits at jacknut radicals knows that she's guilty as all hell, but the primitives want somebody punished for speaking truth to power. 

Who is the threat?  Crooked Hillary!

Indeed, he was, PGR.  Jon Kkkary was in the brown-water Navy and now has it s.eared into his memory.
 
Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

I wonder if LLP might wish she had composed this sentence a bit differently. She isn't disagreeing with the slide creator's perception of The SHREW's character. In fact, LLP shows that she agrees with that perception while approving of it.

Aside from all the young mush-head Millennials that make up a good slice of the junior ranks, and the senior field-grades, stars, and their proteges that want to camp in Washington for the rest of their careers, I expect the rest of them recognized the following:

War might happen with either candidate, but they know anything led by today's Democrats will conducted in the most half-assed and futile way possible and that any sacrifices incurred in it are doomed to be for absolutely nothing;

They are abundantly familiar with the standards expected of them in keeping government records, public oversight of their activities, and how easily your entire career can be ruined by the slightest lapse with classified material of even the lowest level, and the dissonance created by the treatment of Hillary and her associates hits them right where they live;

And last but not least, they know damn' well who is going to be on the bottom of the food chain, and will get cut to pay for everything else as well as getting all kinds of social justice and environmental roadblocks thrown in their way, if she gets in.

I suppose if there is a bright side to the demoncrat winning is that we will have firm fixed dates on the beginning and end of any war we decide to enter. So we have that to look forward to. ::)
