Military dislikes Hillary

A Poll Asked Military Members How They Felt About Hillary — And Here’s What They Said
 
A recent poll conducted by Rasmussen asked active duty and retired U.S. military members what they thought about 2016 Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. As it turns out, their opinion of the former Secretary of State and First Lady was not very good.
 
An overwhelming 81% viewed her unfavorably. That included a whopping 69% who had a “Very Unfavorable” impression of her.  Only an anemic 15% of military members had a favorable impression of her.
 
Ouch. If you can’t get the military to stand behind you, what kind of Commander in Chief do you think you are going to be? No doubt, Clinton only has herself to blame for the antipathy the military has for her.
 
When talking to MSNBC host Rachel Maddow not long ago, Clinton downplayed the scandals that plague the Department of Veterans Affairs.  “I don’t understand why we have such a problem,” she callously told Maddow. “There have been a number of surveys of veterans and overall, veterans who do get treated are satisfied with their treatment.” Of course, she didn’t speak for those vets who never received treatment… probably because many of them died while waiting, so they weren’t able to weigh in. Besides, they don’t vote.
 
It also came to light recently that she ignored a critical email from then-Department of Defense Chief of Staff Jeremy Bash during the heat of the 2012 Benghazi terror attack. The email announced that military forces were ready and waiting to be given the go ahead for an immediate rescue operation.

As a result, four Americans including Ambassador Chris Stevens were murdered. Clinton claimed to be saddened by Stevens’ murder because he was supposedly a personal friend of hers. Which is why it seems so strange that she ignored his many desperate pleas for the added security that could have prevented his murder. Do you think it’s a surprise to Hillary that the military can’t stand her?
