Military support for trump slips as half of troops view president unfavorably, new poll shows

Support among military personnel for President Donald Trump is at its lowest since he became president, according to a new poll.between the end of October to the start of December, nearly 42 percent of respondents said they had a positive opinion of the president. This comprised of 17.3 percent of respondents who had a"favorable" view and 24.3 percent who had a"very favorable" view of the president.

Meanwhile, just under 50 percent of respondents had a negative view, including 45.1 percent whose opinion of him was"very unfavorable."

The margin of error for most questions was around two percent.

U.S. President Donald Trump speaks to the troops during a surprise Thanksgiving day visit at Bagram Air Field in Afghanistan on November 28, 2019. A survey published the Military Times suggests that support for Trump among armed services is waning.However, the publication noted that Trump's popularity is still higher than that of former president Barack Obama when he left office in January 2017.

He has shot himself in the foot more than once, when it comes to the military.

It’s unbelievable that anyone in the military supports Trump. A lunatic as Commander in Chief is not ideal.

Well his children are disinherited if they join up.

TrueFactsStated Maybe they don’t want to arrest doctors and jail critically ill children in the future. Or maybe they want to keep the VA and other well deserved benefits.

Well it's about time.

TrueFactsStated Who can blame them? They didn't sign up to serve as human shields for Saudi Oil wells so Trump's family can get 'cash'.

TrueFactsStated These are people trained to respect the chain of command. He has no respect for military leadership.
