Are service members less likely to feel political loss due to our "support the chain of command regardless of our inner feelings" mindset?

No impact on any military decisions, we follow our elected leaders. Why would anyone feel political loss? The election is over, pick up your pack and continue the mission. Semper Fi.

Once the Presidential Elect, whoever that may for elections to come, takes office, the military will stand behind them in the public eye. Only in the quietest and most trusted environments would any intelligent service member ever speak otherwise. I have my opinions about our current administration, but until the current President is replaced, I will keep them to myself good or bad. I follow lawful orders blindly and without question, regardless of who is giving them. If I have an issue with an order, I will bring it up to someone in the chain - even were it to come from the President.
However, until the elect takes office, I feel that we are entitled our opinions.
