Elected in an election riff with fraud and corruption, his family financial ties to our enemies make his ability to perform his duties as POTUS highly questionable....... we have not settled this yet...... our court system moves slow.

I continue to struggle with this very question and anything similaras most certainly not helping my insomnia...The previous night I managed to have a very rare decent sleep, but last night at approx 0330 it hit me like a Mac Truck...The Biden's were a PROVEN crime syndicate family known well before the SELECTION...Obviously the media ran coverwith radio silence but if not stuck in CNN world, most of us were well aware of Hunter, and Joe's brothers connection to China and Ukraine..Using Biden's threats of withholding financial help unless lawyers immediately stopped investigating Hunter...Biden even bragged about it openly!!!! Not one damn thing happened to the corrupt Joey, and yet if conservative, hearsay had you going to jail and your life ruined....
I am 59yrs old and up until the 2nd dubious term of Obama, I had truly believed we were a mega patriotic FREEDOM proud nation and felt intensely priveleged to be an American.....His 2nd term and in came the Race-baiting, cop-hating, military-hating and the liberals kept it on the QT until Killery lost and then all hell broke loose...Our America, for those of you who still love America the land of the ONCE free, is going down in overwhelming duress and the only ones who LOVE what is developing is the warped liberals, blm, and antifa...
.My brain is inundated with all these thoughts about how is it possible that THEY are getting away with it...Shocking just how much power the media does actually have as literally acts as a hypnotic trance....We have been taught form birth to assume the news MUST be honest and true....Thanks to PRESIDENT Trump, we now know just how corrupt these people really are....God help and Bless America as if we do not wake up asap, we will cease to exist....Traitors are running the ship and I for one feel helpless as nobody appears to be counteracting....I pray something, SOME PEOPLE are looking out for us, but all I see is grumbling mixed with adherence and submissiveness....
Covid and racism have been fine tuned to fever pitch to create such intense panic that everyone has stopped thinking for themselves...Research, research and do not stop researching...Find out what the Gates mission is to accomplish and then the puzzle pieces will start to fit in place...

If I was still active I would follow the CINC only because of the oath I took. That being said I would be weighing my options.... stay in or get out. Unless I was close to retirement I would bail. This president is not a Leader. Just remember where he got his traning.

We shouldn't even have to ask this question. Makes me sad that anyone might pause to answer it.
Simply put? Yes, by sacred oath. Unless the Commander-in-Chief issues an unlawful (unconstitutional or gravely immoral act) order.

President Trump won the vote in 18 of the 19 "Election Bellwether Counties". These counties always vote for the winner. Look it up. There are many other indications of fraud in the election.

And, he lost in the most secure election in our history. He did gin up incredible support and had more votes than any incumbent ever, and he lost to a new President who ginned up even more support...to the tune of 8 Million more votes. Even the 3 new Supreme Court Justices whom Trump appointed and were approve by Congress, have refused to hear any of Trump's lawsuits...why? Because they (Trump team) showed ZERO evidence,

My answer is the same with every elected President of the United States. I support my Commander In Chief as it pertains to being in charge of military forces. Since I am now retired, I can give my opinion on his politics. I do not support his politics. It will make more people dependent upon our Government to provide for them instead of the opposite of providing for the sustainment of our way of life as a Governed body.

As the Commander in Chief, yes. Did I vote for him? No. He is still the elected POTUS and my old military bearing dictates that I accept this. I’m not happy about it and what he may or may not do to, or for, our great country but I will abide by what he says, unless it’s giving up my 2A rights. Facebook has already removed my freedom of speech.

fortunately I have the presence of mind to check facts first. I was shut down by FB because of one of the pages I manage. They removed photos of firearms and me at the range, side view, and you can see the shell flying out of the ejection port. Will due respect, I suggest you check before you accuse one of posting misinformation.

SPC Nancy Detwiler - They not only shut people down for their 2nd Amendment discussions, but for Conservative or Republican voices or values. They are removing our 1st Amendment rights, including removing the actual President from his forum to express his opinions. What do you think they will do to ours.

He is the president so in support the constitution yes! However a question how’s does a 78 year old man with nearly fifty years of career average at best politics become the best this nation has to offer? And would any company in the world hire him? Sadly the answer is no! Gotta ask you self then why is he in this position now? And yes I know he was elected lol.

Well, if you’ve got “sm” next to your name, the answer is yes. I’d ask you to remember that you swore an oath to the constitution. The left has been pretty successful in dividing this country over the last four years, however. I believe (and everyone I know) that there was overwhelming and material fraud in this most recent election. I guess we’ll see what happens.

votes were stolen, there is proof, if the courts would hear the evidence it can be proven, problem is the courts have all refused to hear the case. EVERYTHING can be cleared up, and either dismissed or confirmed if the courts would do their jobs.

Well, sure, some people did vote for Biden. I'm not disputing that. If you care to share, 1SG, I'd be curious to understand why Biden? Are there particular things that you like about him? Or his prior successes? I am really curious and am not looking to bust your chops and get into a debate. I think a *lot* of people voted for Biden because it was anyone but Trump. I laughed out loud when I heard Trump was running for President last time around, but do believe that he got some things done (appointing conservatives to the federal bench as well as the Supreme Court (although that last part didn't work out for him on the election fraud part...), tax reform, reducing mandatory minimums, and more). He just needs to learn to keep his mouth shut - he's the kind of guy that can't let a slight pass without opening his mouth to show everybody that he's smarter than they are. Bad idea - sometime silence is golden. I'm not saying that Trump was the greatest president ever, but sometimes you do need a SOB in the job.

SSG Daniel Brewster - I voted for Biden because I like some (not all) of his plans. He is more moderate than other dems. In 2016 I voted 3rd party (G.J.) and i have vote both dem and rep in the past. It is going to take decades to recover from the damage trump did in my opinion and the GOP may never recover. I am not a conservative except fiscally. I think it was a mistake to appoint conservatives to the bench because that should never be the intent. I don't want liberal or conservative justices. I want justices who will guard and interpret the constitution for the people and NOT for a political ideology or party.

I must have missed their confession. If you and the OP are so convinced tell everyone else. I’m no fan of an 80 year old career politician who never achieved any success other than getting elected. But I don’t believe in hearsay or conjecture. Show me something that can’t be refuted and holds up in a court!

I said that I want someone to show me 1 or more sources that show that President Biden has told anywhere near the amount of lies Trump told in 4 years. I double down to say over his 40 plus year in politics he hasn’t told 1/10th the amount of lies that are easily verified, that Trump told. It’s not one or the other for me, I don’t like Biden either, but I don’t like Trump more! It’s an easy choice for me.
What I don’t do is make up lies to protect my opinion or disregard the truth or reason by saying nonsense like fake news or Illuminati or a cabal of satan worshiping pedophiles secretly runs the world. Trump was and is terrible human being who only cares about himself being scene as a winner all the while conducting a massive shell game to hide his fake charities, tax fraud, fraudulent loan statements, mistress’s, porn stars, campaign finance violations etc etc.
Seek the truth and it will set you free, all the anger on the far right can be quelled if it just believes the truth. No one is coming for the guns, your wife, your kids, your dog, your house, your motorcycle. The bogey man is the criminal/ military industrial complex that needs you to be scared to keep you in line buying their junk and electing the politicians that will make them more money than anyone reading this will ever know!

CPL Mark Garrigus - well Biden had "success" in putting minorities in prison for life for non-violent offenses. That "success"?
He lied about Keystone...and is paying off Warren Buffet (railway kingpin) by having Canadian oil transported by rail.
He lied to every Union employee by being a UNION JOB KILLER.
I would keep going but it is not worth changing the mind of an indoctrinated useful idiot.

OK, here's my two cents, OK, maybe today that should be two bucks.
He is my President. I can like him or not, but he remains my president, and I am commanded to pray for them. 1 Timothy 2:2-3 "And pray for every political leader and representative, so that we would be able to live tranquil, undisturbed lives, as we worship the awe-inspiring God with pure hearts. It is pleasing to our Savior-God to pray for them." (TPT) I also feel constrained by the oath I swore many years ago to obey the orders of the President.
Having said that, many of the policies and rules he is extolling are contrary to the teachings of the bible. Those things I will resist by any lawful and Constitutional means available to me. The above verse, Romans 13, and others, aside, when the High Priest and the Council ordered Peter and the other Apostles not to teach in the name of Jesus, they replied: “We ought to obey God rather than men...." (Acts 5:29)
He is my President. I do not like him or his policies, but he holds the office, and because I honor the office, I will honor him. Given his choice of Vice Presidents, you better believe I am praying for his health and well being. But my faith dictates that I can not, and will not, support his Executive orders,policies, goals, nor any of the laws passed or currently working their way through Congress.

I'd like to say, any active duty members should refrain from responding to this question. You are risking a UCMJ violation.
Second; this is an inappropriate question, as the one asked about Trump was. If you have service members in your command who frequent this site, they would have some pretty convenient ammunition against you if they see it.

So far, most of the active duty here have not commented negatively on my question. And according to DoDD 1344.10, they cannot comment anyway. Hatch Act is for civilians.

Maj James Tippins - I amended my comment.
It doesn't matter if they are commenting positively or not. The question is putting Active Duty members in a precarious position IF they feel strong enough to answer negatively.
Of course the threat of military actions didn't stop a lot of them from commenting negatively against Obama.

I am retired and certainly have no oath to uphold. Of course I don't support this guy; 1. I don't believe the election was legitimate and I certainly don't believe he is the legitimate president; I'm certainly not alone in this regard; there are mountains of evidence; the argument that the courts didn't find anything doesn't hold water; most of the courts kicked the can down the road because they questioned whether or not the volume of fraud was significant enough to change a particular precinct, county or state result (there was no argument on the presence of fraud......just the volume!). 2. All the policies put forth so far by this administration are bad for America and all Americans, therefore whether I wish him ill or support him, is irrelevant....bad things might happen to the country if any of his agenda is enacted into law, and that includes the military. 3. He is an incompetent ass-clown and I generally make it a rule to not support that type of person!

In my opinion the new Commander in Chief is a puppet of Obama, Clinton and all that is adverse to the good of the Military, Foreign Policy ad America in General.
He had been in one or the other Houses of egress for for-seven year and accomplish nothing other that bleed the budget of funds that could have been used to benefit needed projects and programs.
I support the office he holds but not the individual(s) in it!
