RSSUnited States Military Troops Prefer Donald Trump to Clinton By a “HUGE” Margin
US ACTIVE MILITARY PREFERS TRUMP OVER HILLARY BY 2 TO 1 MARGIN …
In a new poll of active American military personnel, Donald Trump leads by a wide margin to become the next Commander in Chief. The survey of active-duty service members chose Trump over Clinton by a 54% to 25% margin. In fact, self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders, who has no chance of winning the Democrat primary because of a rigged establishment super delegate process, does better than Clinton in this poll. Interestingly enough as the Daily Caller points out, criticism from the GOP foreign policy establishment pointing out Trump’s inexperience in the field has done little to dissuade active-duty service members from throwing their support behind the real estate tycoon.
In a new survey of American military personnel, Donald Trump emerged as active-duty service members’ preference to become the next U.S. president, topping Hillary Clinton by more than a 2-to-1 margin. However, in the latest Military Times election survey, more than one in five troops said they’d rather not vote in November if they have to choose between just those two candidates.
But given only those choices, 21 percent of the service members surveyed said they would abstain from voting. More than 54 percent of the 951 troops Military Times surveyed said they would vote for Trump, the presumed Republican presidential nominee, over Clinton, the Democratic front-runner. Only about 25 percent said they would vote for Clinton in that matchup.
Democrats overwhelmingly favored Clinton (72 percent to 8 percent) and Republicans overwhelmingly supported Trump (82 percent to 6 percent). Troops who identified as independents slightly favored Trump, by a 40 percent to 32 percent margin.
Female troops favored Clinton over Trump, by a 51 percent to 24 percent margin. Male troops backed Trump over Clinton 57 percent to 22 percent.
Officers were more likely to back Clinton, though still said they’d vote for Trump by a 46 percent to 32 percent tally. Enlisted respondents broke 58 percent to 21 percent for Trump.

ROFL!
Trump dodged the Vietnam war draft, but according to him, he still fought his own vietnam war in the US as a playboy trying not get a venereal disease…. I love how veterans and soldiers enjoy Trump’s humiliating them with such comments!
so basically they would love Trump to be the commander in chief, so he could keep sending them to war as insignificant pieces of meat just to make bankers and military industry richer, am I right? Trump has stated that he will make a stronger military that no one will mess with the US, obviously in order for others not to mess with the US, they must see what the US is capable of, so I suppose Belorussia is next in the list of US’ victims.

SM: So with your comments you provided above, what does that tell you what they think of Hillary Clinton? Hmm?
It is sad to read that military officers would support a socialist with their vote. However, it is not surprising since the military academys have been turned into a socialist experiment rather than what they were intended to be.
Hey piggy troll …I think you need to go read your liberal news! oink oink
Seriously, what Obama has done to the Security of the USA and demoralizing the troops and undermining the Generals with his rhetoric not being able to admit that ISIS is a terrorist group. Let us be honest I think Donald Trump will strengthen the army and take far more precaution for the safety of the Americans than The cackling old hen Hillary Clinton. (she should be in jail) not running for office. I have far more faith with Donald Trump being The Commander in Chief.
