Dude loves him some Obama.

Not really but my Grandfather was a Captain in the navy. Destroyer escort during WW2. 27 yo and was commanding 50+ men in battle.
He was pretty conservative I think.
But His 3 kids grew up to be baby boomer liberals.

Demographically speaking, the active service are approx 40% minorities. Demographically, that's a bunch of "liberals".


I don’t think that’s fair. They very well may be democrats, but that does not mean they are liberal.

Of the military people I know, three are active duty infantry Marines and love Trump.

One is retired Marine pilot and loves Trump.

One is in the US Navy and I don’t think cares.

Two are US Army and are retards but hate Dems.

One retired Army officer I know who would probably suck Trump off if given the chance and he’s not gay.

One of my good buddies is a hard liberal. But he can joke around like a Republican. He actually has a sense of humor which is nice. He doesn't get butt hurt when we joke around

There are lots of liberals in the military. Always have been. They are outnumbered but they exist

Lots of military folks are very liberal. It isn't the majority, but it is a significant number. I can't explain it, but I can't deny the fact either.

After 20+ years I can tell you:

About 10% AD serving are genuine progs, well invested and watch politics.
About 30% vote D because they think they should, family, race, etc.
About 40-50% vote R on patriotism alone.
The other upwards of 20% are woke as frick, have had to clear rooms for these fricking villains, work in embassy duty, green doors, etc. Absolutely don't give 2 shits to the stupid L/R paradigm, know its all BS, and just try to get by with their brotherhood in service.
If they vote, they will vote R because they have no other good options.

I don't really know any active military, but of those that were in the service that I know, they're pretty evenly spread across conservative, libertarian, and liberal. The most liberal ones are former Marines, while the most conservative are former Air Force.

A real good friend of mine works in intelligence with the Marines. He says most of them speak how much of an idiot Trump is on a daily basis but a few in his department do back Trump.

I would label him as an independent that leans to the right a little, definitely not a full blown liberal.
