The assumption that our troops don’t realize that shows their disdain for the troops. Arrogance!

The amount of pro Trump/Insurrectionists in uniform would seem to indicate that the lesson does need repeating.

MCPO Roger Collins - The President was just impeached for inciting a failed insurrection in an attempt to overturn the democratic process. This is not an opinion, this is a statement of fact.
This has been declared an act of domestic terrorism, sedition and insurrection by the FBI, The House, the Senate, the President Elect, the SECDEF, the SECARMY, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Department of Justice. That is a fact, not a discussion point.
Any servicemember or retiree still receiving pay who is advocating, either verbally or in writing, support for this effort or its instigators needs to be VERY careful, or they will very quickly find themselves with the FBI knocking on their door. You are no longer persons with differing political opinions, you are now supporters of domestic terrorism via a failed attempt at treason.

I hope there's no conflict between the elected officials and the citizens as the military is oath-bound to support the social contract detailed in the Articles of the Constitution.
