No. Veterans are very happy with Trump. They are extremely pleased that Afghanistan refugees(who worked for the US) are being rounded up and sent back to the Taliban. These veterans pushed hard to abandon the Ukrainians.
There is nothing short of 30% unemployment for 10 years that will break their belief in Trump. |
The vet in my family despised Trump. |
Every vet I know well enough to know where they stand is appalled by this administration. |
This is not true. Vets know how important those relationships are to mission success and are pissed that we would abandon people who risked their lives to help us. I suspect you are either making this up or reading posts from people who just pretend to be vets on their keyboard. |
dp.. I think the ^PP was being sarcastic. |
lol I can tell you are not vet. All the ones I served with plus my friends(vets) and family(vets) are hardcore fox watching Trump loyalists. If you had served you would know what vets think. I can always tell the They love Trump. You can always tell the REMF. I am so sick of people like you. Try to get outside the beltway and your nice safe world before you speak for all vets. |
Vets may not be feeling it yet, but they will when their benefits get cut, their services slow down, or they lose their jobs due to RIFs in the government or cuts that affect collateral organizations. |
I’m not the PP, but I know a lot of vets who worked really hard to get Afghanis out of Afghanistan. I cannot imagine they will be happy that these people will be sent back — but maybe I’m wrong. https://www.npr.org/2025/04/16/nx-s1-5364635/trump-administration-ending-temporary-protected-status-for-afghans-living-in-u-s |
It may surprise you, but vets do not all think the same. |
Vets understand the importance of secure communications and the seriousness of their jobs. They know they’d be kicked out and imprisoned for what these clowns have done and only the most unprofessional, sadistic partisan ones are making excuses for it. |
They will only know if they are able to hear why there benefits have been cut. If they keep watching Fox News, I’m sure they will spin some story of why it’s the deep state. Trauma doesn’t tell its own story. That’s why the touch stove theory from James Carville won’t work. |
It's impossible to know the answer to OP's question without a series of polls. People who are veterans have multiple identities, not just being veterans. The Dems I know who are vets abhor Trump. I'm guessing that the ones who are MAGA still support him. |
Vets took the brunt of the RIFs at my agency because cuts were concentrated in administrative and support roles. |
Active Duty tends to have nothing but disdain for Hegseth. I'm sure many vets feel similar and that would extend to Trump. |
