Trump merchandise sold at Fort Bragg for president's speech now under review

So military personnel are not allowed to own things that are arbitrarily decided to be political

I didn't serve. Were you not allowed to have any possessions that other people thought were political?

So it's that your butt hurt?
Surprise

You never served

Nor did Trump

He called them loosers and suckers

I am neither, I am a proud GAY Vet who servex his country 20 years, something those like Trump will NEVER understand.
 
Seems like you should wait and see if they actually wear this in their uniform
why?

The fact that it was sold on a military base was illegal in itself and a violation of protocol.
Its not about them having it.

Its a out it being sold on a military base.
 
When have we ever had a president give a speech on a base and then sell merchandise.
Where do you get the idea that it's the president selling merchandise?
Quit trying to be so obtuse, this isn't about military personnel buying political wear, it's about the President selling merchandise during a visit to the base.
Prove it's the president selling it.
A little intellectual honesty would be refreshing from you.
Says the guy making up a story about a president selling merchandise.
 
Or it's Cherry picked data which it always is that's why I never look at it.

Cherry picked data is never relevant.

What's PX?
You have no evidence whatsoever that our military like Trump. NONE! I just provided evidence to the contrary.
I win.
You lose.
Give it up before you embarrass yourself any further. (as if that were even possible)

I guess these people sell like a merchandise are just the idiots trying to sell it to people that don't like Trump.
I just provided evidence to the contrary.
Cherry picked evidence.

Did you not know what that means
I win.
You lose.
Whatever game you were playing sure you win.
Give it up before you embarrass yourself any further. (as if that were even possible)
Because you Cherry picked data it declared yourself the winner of something? I'm not sure what you would but it seems really important to you and I guess I'm embarrassed that whatever this imaginary thing you won is that important to you.
 
Thank you. Just as I expected, you have no evidence whatsoever of the lie that our military "like Trump". None.
Be on your way now.
 
Because that would be the problem politicizing the military
The fact that it was sold on a military base was illegal in itself and a violation of protocol.
What law?
Its not about them having it.
Will I get that you said it's about people selling it what law prohibits selling this sort of thing
Its a out it being sold on a military base.
So you should be able to show me the law. Go for military protocol for that matter.
 
It is crazy. Donald has ZERO respect for them and had spoken to this several times.
Mayby you see it that way but other people don't
Why anyone in the military would support Trump is gross ignorance or self loathing.
Perhaps it's because of the attempts to arrest him and murder him by idiots that elected a catatonic moron.

Baby the choice of being under the command of a drunk moron like Harris and Mr jazz hands stolen valor was a bigger issue.
 
Why? Are military personnel not allowed to have things? Are they illegal items?
The military is supposed to not be political. Its fine for a politician to give a speech before the military as long as the speech isn't a political one where they are bashing the other party. It is fine for members of the military to have their own personal beliefs about politics and political candidates - and I think it is safe to say that members of the military tend to lean conservative. What they are not supposed to do is engage in political activities in uniform and/or in the context of their role in the military.
 
The evidences vendors selling merch they would have any customers if they didn't like the guy.
Anecdotal projection. You have no evidence that even a single piece of Trump's tainted Chinese swag was sold. None.
 
The military is supposed to not be political.
Yes but the individuals can political is there what right Debbie we had presidents that served in the military.
Its fine for a politician to give a speech before the military as long as the speech isn't a political one where they are bashing the other party.
I agree with that they should bash the other party

Yeah I think they totally conservative too
What they are not supposed to do is engage in political activities in uniform and/or in the context of their role in the military.
I get that they shouldn't be in their uniforms marching political parade or something but what is that got to do with buying Donald Trump stuff?

Is the active fighting it political?
 
Mayby you see it that way but other people don't
True. I keep aware of current world events. Very very few do. The least educated the less likely to keep up.
This is why Trump became a republican.
Perhaps it's because of the attempts to arrest him and murder him by idiots that elected a catatonic moron.
I would really like to see your posts mature.
 
And who's gonna stop him?
 
"shot in face multiple attempts"...

Yeah everyone that doesn't agree with you is just stupid right without thought the least bit self-centered.

I bet you're too arrogant to understand that that sarcasm
I would really like to see your posts mature.
You first. But I'm assuming you're like 70 so I think that ship has sailed.
 
Nope

But policial merchandise has no place on a military installation.

I am retired AF, how many years you serve in uniform?

My guess is zero, which is why the point is over your head.
You are most likely correct.

Ah...ageism. Fits right in with racism, sexism, homophobia, and ableism.
