Trump May Not Even Show Up To His Own Military Parade
The fact is that the military is not 100% pro-Trump, loyal though they are to the Constitution and the Republic.
The American military tends to reflect the population at large, with some interesting differences. Twenty percent of the officers self-identify as liberal or Democrat. For enlisteds, that number is over 45%.
Even conservatives have problems with the Trump presidency. You can see that in the Congress, both the House and the Senate. And it is reflected in the military, also.
Incidentally, right now, I am reading My Share of the Task by Gen. Stanley McChrystal. His father was also a general. His mother was a political liberal. It must have been an intellectually vibrant dinner table.
