My Guess the Survey was conducted on the Mess Decks with a bunch of Guys sitting around watching FOX.

I'm so tired of seeing FOX and CNN on TV. They aren't news, they are propaganda. It's sickening.

I think the troops prefer anybody over Hillary Clinton. They even prefer Bernie Sanders over Hillary, even though Sanders is more of a self-described leftist socialist than Hillary is. So this is no surprise... Hillary Clinton's popularity in the military is simply very very low.

Thank you for the response. Why exactly do you think that is? With regards to Clinton having low military support.

SSG Derrick L. Lewis MBA, C-HRM - I can only speculate, but she represents the Democratic Establishment, and the Democratic Establishment is generally very unpopular with the US military. I can't think of the last Democratic Establishment leader that was popular with the US military. We might have to go back to JFK or FDR?

LTC Yinon Weiss - Obama was pretty popular after Osama got waxed, but that faded. Your assessment is pretty accurate as the military is predominately made up of people from rural conservative areas and statistically is going to vote republican in every poll.

It's no surprise... when you look at HRC's record on foreign policy, the Benghazi tragedy and how the state of world affairs ( particularly the middle-east regions) deteriorated under her watch as "Secretary of State".
Most of all, the fact that she can call "grieving families" assembled to receive the coffins of their loved ones "liars" is despicable and incomprehensible.
I would rather leave that 2am call in the hands of President Trump!
