I'm a prior service 11Bravo. I was stationed in Fort Campbell and was in the 101st from 2013 to 2016. I would say the vast majority of political affiliation within an infantry Battalion is 98% Republican, 2%Independent and zero democrats. well democrats are mostly pussy arse support POGs who clog up all the services from combat arms because they have PTSD from getting yelled at by their POG 1st SGT. I don't really tell anyone my political affiliation. I'm all for Trump but I also have a business selling PC parts, TVs, Gaming Consoles on amazon. I also build custom gaming Computers and set up Computer workstations in office spaces. I'm a patriot through and through. the only thing that will push me over the edge is if I lose the ability to make as much money I am making due to my political affiliation. Also Joe Biden is a senile old bitch and I hope he dies from a brain Aneurysm.

You are a great American! Nothing in the Potomac cesspool is worth fighting over.

These cretins indeed want us to resort to violence so they can brand us as a domestic terror threat and justify further tyranny. The best way to fight back against these charlatans in Washington is to provide for yourself and your family, strive for financial independence and a debt free existence while also preparing for unforeseen contingencies such as these insane lockdowns.

You were clearly enlisted and note that virtually none of the military leaders - the flag officers - support Trump...with the notable exception of a former general who was convicted and then held out for a pardon by Trump...so his loyalty kind of makes sense.

So the disconnect between your views and those of the military leadership is interesting...guess you don't think much of the field grade and flag officers...

Maybe you weren't actually loyal to the Constitution but to something else? Maybe serving was just a way out of some shithole future and you're content to make a buck and be left alone.

I'm sure of one thing, though...the military will not support a tyrant. Trump floated that idea in the weeks before the election and he was shot down bigly by leadership in every branch. When Trump said in 2018, "President for life...maybe we'll give that a shot one day," he showed his cards.

Can you give me an example of what you might consider losing ability to make as much money?

Would it include things like...

1) open border allowing a) cheap labor pushing prices down and b) social services cost increases pushing up taxes?

2) broader business and gov regulation stifling economic activity

3) entry into Paris Agreements and Green New Deals

4) push to stifle energy deployment doubling gas prices again

5) I can keep going
