I support the new commander in chief, no matter what political party they belong. We have to stop fighting and support the commander until if need be a new one replaces them. We are never going to have a perfect candidate that everyone likes all of their policies, but that is what is so powerful about voting. Not just for the president, but ALL elected officials because they are the ones that make the most changes in what happens in our communities, counties, states, and as a nation. If they don't have the ideals you believe in, find a candidate that will and fight for that candidate. I think it is becoming more and more obvious as the days go on, the corrupt nature some representatives have that they tell their constituents what they want to hear, only to leave them in the dark and cold. Lets use our freedom of speech to speak out against corrupt representatives, from the smallest to the biggest.

This question is a bait, if the lower enlisted cant talk about this, then the higher officers shouldn't either. The standard is for everyone, as well as sir. you have only told the lower enlisted not to talk about this subject, besides the 1sg who brought up the same topic.

I’ve supported every single president in my 23 year career. It’s what I swore to do. Just not sure our current POTUS is calling the shots. He cannot even remember the names of his cabinet secretaries are, or which department those secretaries oversee.

would not take a bullet for him, his running mate or 3rd in line.... not sure after that...
He is the President of the United States. As such he is the Commander-in-Chief. While he is in office I will support him, within reason. I hope he will do well, if not, I will not vote for him.

In principle only. Some truly destructive policies are coming out of his office, not to mention the trampling of the U.S. Constitution they swore an oath to. I truly hope for a turnaround and some good things to come, but as of now, that seems like a pipe dream. One thing I will certainly not do is follow the trend I saw from 2016 to present; daily attacks on his supporters, generalizing, personal attacks and other divisive nonsense.

Remember that Country and the constitution come before any President, as they are temporary... so why would we not support a sitting President.. they may be A-holes in one way or another and we as individuals are not always going to be in sync with the POTUS's view..

That question is somewhat like asking, "Do you support your CG"? Like most open ended questions, my response is, it depends.
