"The Army is reviewing how pro-President Donald Trump merchandise wound up being sold on one of its bases this week at a service-sponsored event orchestrated by the White House and the president's supporters.

Earlier this week, Trump spoke at Fort Bragg in North Carolina in celebration of the Army's 250th birthday. At the event, vendors were spotted selling Trump merchandise -- including "Make America Great Again" hats and other "America First" swag. The practice is likely at odds with long-standing Defense Department policy, which prohibits troops from wearing political garb such as hats or flags or expressing their political opinion while in uniform. The policy is intended to preserve America's tradition of apolitical military forces, serving at the behest of a democratically elected president regardless of party."
The public event at Fort Bragg, which is home to the Army's 82nd Airborne Division and serves as the headquarters of the U.S. Army Special Operations Command, was orchestrated much like a Trump campaign rally."

I don't think its a good idea to politicize the military. It will affect morale and unity.

Trump can fix this easily with an EO, or maybe with just a phone call to SecDef.
There is absolutely nothing improper about cashing in on CinC. It will also be helpful in identifying soldiers who may be suspect in their loyalty to POTUS.

Soldiers aren't required to be loyal to the president. They're required to be loyal to the Constitution.

Stealers Wheel said:

That is a quaint, outdated notion. This is the Trump era. Loyalty to Trump is paramount to all else.

As far as MAGA is concerned, the Constitution must be loyal to Trump.

I never served in the military I don't claim to have served in the military never did.

So what's the magical spell that happens to you when you serve the military to answer the simple question that you're too incompetent answer?
