No... everyone knows this was not a legitimate election... he was placed... that goes against what we signed up to support..installing a fake president goes against the constitution

I support the current president, unlike the previous one, this one is putting Americans first - not the rich elite that the former POTUS gave huge tax breaks thinking it would help - which it did not.
I'm eager to see more Americans at work fixing our infrastructure, even if it reminiscent of the WPO and other organizations that FDR created to get America out of the Great Depression.

Consider that the Great Depression happened after the Pandemic of 1918 - it only makes sense for the government to step to prevent what happened 100 years ago as businesses are more concerned for their bottom line than repairing the bridges and highways that their semi's wear out with their loads. I truly believe industry should be shouldering more of the burden as they expect consumers to deal with their final products (plastic waste, obsolete electronics, etc) as well as shouldering the cost of road repairs.

More and more countries are going to ask these corporations to step up about their waste.

Considering that Biden hasn't finished his first 100 days - many more things will happen without taking off to play golf, unlike his predecessor.

As to any 'election fraud' - do remember that even a year before the election that 45 said if he didn't win it was rigged... and still says that. He truly believed that all ballots were to be counted only on election day and wanted to disallow MY VOTE which was absentee, mailed in weeks prior because it takes longer than 24 hours to count millions of vote.

Trump did put America first. Biden is putting Guatemala, Mexico and Honduras first. Let that sink in.

In today's world you have to look outside your boarders. If the countries you mentioned were to clear up their social, economic, and violence within their boarders we would not have the multitudes at ours - common sense. It doesn't help that the US has been involved in countless government ploys that have often backfired in Central American countries - especially during the Bush Administration.
So, the US is partially responsible for the mass migrations from the area. There is no easy answer to the situation. Trump loosing recording for thousands of children didn't help either.
I have no doubt within the next few months/years, you're going to find that the former POTUS was far from putting American first. Presently look at the scandal with DJT Jr. and his lying about the inauguration. My contempt for the family goes back to their fiascos in Cincinnati.
I truly believe that most Americans bought the businessman that was portrayed on the Apprentice and have no clue as to what the man was like in real life. Read Cohen's or Mary Trump's book.

SSgt Mary Burns - I can't speak on the "ploys" the US had during whatever administrations but how long are we/they going to use that as an excuse to invade the US illegally?? And hey.... it was Central America. Ever traveled around there? I have. They have no problem screwing themselves without the help of any other country getting involved.

So you are saying Trump had those records in his hands and lost them himself? Like maybe accidentally threw them in the trash at Mara Lago one day? OK fine... Than I guess Trump was also at fault I sprained my ankle back in May 2020.

I have no clue what you are talking about with inaugurations ........ Cincinnati etc etc

And it's painfully obvious you were NOT in the military when Trump was in office. It was the best of times to be on active duty.

No I do not. He is going to ruin this country with his uber liberal agenda. I don't even think he's going to serve his full term. The reason he nominated Harris as his VP is because that's who the Democratic party wanted but she was polling so bad in the primaries she would never get the nomination. This way they can remove him and she can be the first woman president. Mark my words. For the next for years we are going to suffer. They are already trying to circumvent the constitution with HR1. By trying to take away states rights on voting.

Absolutely! It's so nice to have a President with integrity, honesty and one who works with and supports the American people and their needs. And a cabinet that represents American, with its mixed diverse demography. Anyone who believes otherwise is either in denial or a liar. And in most bases, both!

So far its about the "needs" of Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras. And Kamala Harris doesn't represent America no matter what ethnicity she claims to be.

Yes, those country have needs too. And of course V.P. Harris absolutely represents America, but your racist hatred and ideology prevent you from seeing it. Instead of having a heart filled with hate, try to understand that people are only different cultural wise...which makes human beings more interesting. If you befriend a different race or culture, you'll find that people all over this planet are similar as far as loving, laughing, having needs, problems to deal with, aches and pains... Yet we're all the same, in that we all need to be loved. Try befriending and doing something for a stranger without expecting something in return. This will not only raise your consciousness but you'll be rewarded not only in your heart but physically as well in the future.

Great man, great leader, great humanitarian, kind, compassionate, honest, most qualified, honorable, honest, humble, ethical, and devoted to America ——- who does not bully, who reads, who supports our intelligence agencies, a free press, the FBI, and people of all colors, creeds, races, religions, ages, sex’s, sexual preferences. Not a bully, not a narcissistic braggart, not a pathological liar, and not a pawn of Russia. On the other hand, he is just a man. Our country’s true strengths are based on our constitution, division of powers, and a military that promotes service, honor, duty, and support of human rights.

I support the Commander-in-Chief and always will as long as I'm associated as a military member, retired or otherwise. But, I don't support his Presidency. He is a Democrat and I'm not! Simple as that, but the two have to be separated. As he is our Commander-in-Chief, it is our duty, as military personnel to support him (or her) in military manners. As a President and leader of a political party, my support is more flexible. Since I don't belong to his party and don't believe in some of his political ideas, then no, I don't always support this President or the Democratic Party.

Yes i do, even though i am not a republican ,i have a feeling that our mew commander in Chief not only has a better handle on our pandemic ,but also our economy. I dont agree with everything in his agenda because of my religious beliefs but it is obvious that Persident Biden has restored the honor and prestige back to America. Many of us concervatives prefer to forget the trailer trash antics of our previous administration not to mention the desecration of our US Capitol. Regardless of what we think,We still have an oath to preserve and it is to respect his lawful orders.

I pray that his time in office leads to a better and stronger United States of America. That being said I’m not getting that feel good vibe. Gas prices have shot up at least 80 cents per gallon because of letting us drill for oil domestically and President Biden seems to think that we are better off being reliant on OPEC for oil. This is just the beginning of his term and I am already seeing the economy starting to go down. These policies are not in line with traditional American values such as freedom of choice freedom of speech much of which is now being either prevented from use in the public square or met with violence. We have a strong 2nd amendment that is again under attack from people who think that we need to be more like European countries. Why don’t we keep the USA like it is and then those that want us to be like Europe can move over there.

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.

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.
