Why do so many military members support Trump, even after he insulted the family of a Bronze Star winner who died in the line of action?

because we hate Hillary more... her negligence killed some of us.

I honor the soldier who died. Unfortunately his parents are scumbags that I have absolutely no use or respect for.

More than Likely some of US still remember the way the Clinton Regime acted and conducted Business and the Way the Treated the Military both Professionally and Personally... The only Uniform Bill Clinton wore was a Band Uniform ... and that was about the extent of his knowledge of the workings of the Military... the other reason The family he insulted was being played by HRC and was on their payrolls ... and the Family them selves were playing and taunting the fact of their Son's Death, to their advantage as a a bunch of poor Muslims... who had sacrificed...

In politics, people like to sensationalize things to their benefit. For example, you chose to highlight that CPT Humayan Khan was a recipient of the Bronze Star (as per the democratic party line). To my knowledge, every service member who has died in combat in Iraq or Afghanistan has been posthumously awarded a Bronze Star for Meritorious Service. It isn't a BSM for valor. So why is it something you want to emphasize? You did it because that's how the Clinton campaign wants to spin it and it makes for more sensational news and great soundbites.

Clinton is using the Khan's for her political gain, and Trump made a tactless statement about how they are playing up his status and actions. Both candidates have handled it poorly, but I find Clinton's actions to be more disagreeable.

If I had to guess, a substantial number of voters are not voting for their candidate. They are voting against the other. This is a truly embarrassing slate of candidates, including the libertarian and green party candidates.
