Bud, we already vote blue. Yeah there’s some dumbasses out there voting for Trump but he did something no Democrat has been able to do in the modern era. He got the military to vote blue in 2020.
The Democrats have had trouble getting our VA stuff figured out but we’re well aware the Republicans want us to actually just die in an alley somewhere.
the military isn’t pissed off at trump and the comment you’re responding to is intentionally misleading; less that 1% of people from the military force supported biden in majority numbers.
Oh dude. An 80 year old Vietnam veteran is not part of the military force. The guys who he needs to actually follow his orders hate him. Even us Iraq/Afghan vets aren’t getting called back unless they need extra trainers for non physical things.
I’m absolutely not the one distorting things here.
461,657 troops voting for biden vs 16.2 million veterans voting for trump, that’s not even one percentage point; the military votes republicans and it seems that they were prefer that alley at this point.
There’s around 18 million veterans. Exit polling put them at 55/45. So no 16 million of us did not vote for Trump. Stop playing into GOP propaganda. We are not captured by them and they are not the best party for us. The fact that the military voted blue is absolutely historically significant. You need to realize though that veterans are not the military. The cohort that voted against him lived through him staying the education funding for their children, denigrating their wounded and denying his actions got soldiers hurt.
Yeah that’s the part that blows me away - that anyone military-related would vote for Trump after his comments about McCain and wounded veterans. Truly voting against their own interests.
The older guys just don’t believe it happened. Or automatically exclude themselves from his jokes. Literally just his admission that he wouldn’t do everything to rescue a captured service member should have made sure he never got another veteran or military vote.
He’s not even right. There’s 18 million veterans and veterans went 55/45 Trump. That’s 9 million not 16, and if he can’t see why the active duty force voting against their commander in chief is significant then I have no help for him.

Not only does the article you replied to show that your numbers are completely wrong, but your comment isn’t even internally consistent… 462,657 is like 3% of 16.2 million, not less than 1%. What are you smoking?
Again, your numbers are completely and totally wrong to begin with, proved by the very article you replied to—I’m just ALSO saying that even using your wildly incorrect numbers you’re still wrong in yet another way
i bet they’ll still vote republican
UPDATE: watch the apologists try to say that it’s not that bad below. lol

I’m glad that the wannabe dictator has pissed y’all off. Sorry about how he fucked y’all over, but it’s best that y’all don’t like him

The military voted in Biden’s favor in 2020.

Because our military targets poor, undereducated individuals, which by and large exist in red districts/states.
Fucked up any way you look at it

you’re wrong 52% went with trump and for only the last election, not the previous one and i’m trying to figure out if you’re a shill; ignorant; or misinformed.
Oh no, a 3 percent difference between pre election polling and exit polling!
This is rock solid evidence of skullduggery! Woe is me.
you were off by 3 while i was off by 1; you’re 3x further from reality that i am. lol
You claimed 16 million veterans voted for Trump when it was actually 9 million. I’m not good at math but I think that’s more than 1 percent.
Edit to add, that includes assuming every veteran votes. Adding in the apathy rate it’s more like 4.5 million. So that’s what 75%?

you’re right, that’s 2.8%, that’s much better /s
