it’s still amazing to me that any military personnel still support trump after all the times he shat on the military
Racism and guns are more important to them than respect for the military, even if they are that military
People in the military aren’t the sharpest group.
Ehh, it depends. Polling in 2020 put soldiers at 41℅ Dems/ 37% Republicans, so it’s not fully one way or the other.
From my personal experience, soliders mainly were non voting. After service? Tended to matter where they ended up more than anything else.
This was my experience in the army as well. It was a grab bag of opinions because soldiers come from every part of the country and every walk of life.
Military people are a cross-section of Americans at large, not a single bloc.
I only have responses that would be derogatory and biased against the military in general. And while I think one could apply your statement to most groups of people in any context, you do have a point.
Recognizing your bias is remarkable and worth these upvotes!
The true travesty isn’t that he did it, it’s that he was allowed to get away with it like he always is.
Yeah, we know. We didn’t need the apparently unnamed son of John McCain to tell us that.
No but there’s a few more tidbits in the article like Jimmy McCain voting for Harris and the “ever-so-relevant” Meghan McCain:
Despite her harsh criticisms of Trump, Meghan McCain indicated last week that she would still not endorse Harris. “I’m a lifelong, generational conservative,” she tweeted.
I get your sentiment though.
“I’m a lifelong, generational conservative,” she tweeted.
men, and women, and fellows in between, this is what we call a red flag.
His name is Jimmy. First paragraph.
The author could at least directly name them in the title. If it’s significant enough to write an article about, maybe name the guy.
It’s only important because he is John McCain’s son. Other people have spoken out and it was less news worthy.
We all clicked on the post didn’t we?
The post title is actually a link to an article.
Just saw John McCain’s grave at Annapolis on the same day we went to Arlington. Got a private tour of the highest ranked graves. Most incredible thing? He’s only buried there bc his best friend, a fellow naval officer, vouched for him and pulled strings to have him buried there.
It was so dope. I’m the only civilian to have accurately pointed at a headstone and said “isn’t that the dude who blew up a train bridge inland, defying the jurisdiction of the navy??”
Yes, Lefty’s love America and are actual Patriots.
Sauce:
Well, he’s not wrong.
Yeah, no shit. Though thanks for reminding me John McCain is dead
The true travesty isn’t that he did it, it’s that he was allowed to get away with it, like he always is.
judging by the outcry. i’m not sure about that, although i wonder why military twitter thinks about this one, they were mad about tim walz and his whole spiel that one time.
Decries, slams, rips, fires… over sensationalized headlines don’t come from real journalists. Let the facts speak.
