I think it is a fair question. If you really do not feel that you can serve under the leadership of a president, you should just quit. What are the other options? Lead an armed rebellion against the duly elected president? Since rebellion is probably not the best choice, then your options are to shut up and do your duty, as the much maligned 1SG stated, or quit.

What you should do is retire. Instead of staying in and infecting those around you with a personal bias. Remember you are defending the Constitution. You do not serve a man....you serve the people. The people are in charge...where you draw the line is your oath of office. My question is this...where is your voice with the current President? That man is trampling all over the Constitution and is in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood a known Terrorist Organization. This man sent Mc Cain over to seal a deal with the now terrorist organization ISIS gave them weapons and money to overthrow Assad. So do not lecture this combat vet on what right is or is not. We have a fox in the hen house...and you cry behind your desk in some office about Trump. I retired after 23 years of service in 2012...3 combat tours...and now two of my 3 sons are in the Infantry possibly going over to kill the very thing this administration created. So should they die on foreign lands killing these guys so be it, however understand who created them and allowed them to exist. RLTW.

When you made that decision, was your leadership or values questioned? Did you do the honorable thing (for you)? Congratulations on having the personal courage to know where that line was for you.

MAJ Bryan Zeski Since there are so many who dislike him, why are his polls so hight? Are they falsely inflated? Maybe we will see his numbers deflate as people grow tired of his theatrics. Maybe no one will even have to consider resigning or leaving service. After last nights debate, Jeb Bush calling him out on his insulting style, not being the path to win the Presidency, a change of guard could be coming.
My first thought about this photo: What kind of weapon is in his hands, why does he have it on stage, who's that guy in front of him?

If somebody wants to get out and they have served their time, then get out. Otherwise do your part by voting and serving.

CPT (Join to see) Just for the record, I didn't put that picture up or attach it to the post. I don't know who did, or why. If it was RallyPoint Team , I'd really rather they just left it alone. If I wanted a picture up there, I could have put one up myself.

I absolutely don't think he'll win, that's why its a rhetorical question.

Honestly, if one has to ask that question of a POSSIBLE future president and hasn't already resigned under the CURRENT "president" you (whomever) doesn't get it and are either a full time Pentagon clown clawing up the food chain or living on Mars (not much difference really).

I think this points out an interesting question, sir. I think the question stems from your belief that some of the rhetoric and policies endorsed by Trump and some other candidates have been quite ludicrous. So, I'm going to answer the question as if it were framed as, if given the order to execute some of the policies Donald Trump (or others) has endorsed, how would you react?

I think that is completely different. I did take an oath to the Constitution. If I were given any orders to intern Muslim-Americans or be involved in keeping Muslims from entering the country, I do not believe I could execute that order.

That's an excellent question to ask. And it's a question that Soldiers in the past were asked. The military was involved in the internment of the Japanese American citizens in WWII. Were those orders ones that the Officers and Soldiers should have not followed?

I guess you could ask this about any of the people running for President. But in the military we server our country first and foremost, the Commander in Chief is only there temporarily. But their decisions on how the military is treated are what will drive service members to stay or leave.
In all honesty I doubt that Donald Trump will be elected, people love his straight forward speech but they also dislike his ranting at every hot topic of the moment. Its really hard to tell if Trump is in this for real or he is looking for some personal / business gain.

Trump is looking to feed his ego and nothing else. He has NO political experience, businesses he has ran have gone BANKRUPT, Clinton is under investigation and both have lied in the past to where I, as a veteran TRUST NEITHER!!!! There is an Independent and Libertarian Candidate no one seems to be talking about, and act like our only choices are the LIAR and the NUTCASE!!! We need to look at the ENTIRE picture and not just what few want us to see. What we need is a President that is FOR the People and NOT against The Constitution, our soldiers, education and healthcare that is necessary and working on making our nation a beacon of hope and not a laughing stock of the world as Obama has done for the last 7 years plus of his administration. Stop giving out to those who want our demise and start taking care of our backyard Congress and We The People NEED to make it known that WE NEED NEW IDEAS ENACTED-NOT MORE LIES AND CONDESCENDING ATTITUDES FROM DC.
