He elaborates on the core issue — the flaws in Trump's character. "I think about the character of the man versus the policies, and I think Trump's character is very poor." Many came out in strong support of the veteran's stance. @RClaussen2 declared "I agree 100% sir. I am the child of a Navy veteran even as a lifelong Republican I cannot vote for Trump, never again. Real Republicans do not insult our military and veterans they support them 100%."



 

 

@TaxtheRich49 thanked the veteran for his service to the country and for "vowing not to vote for DJT. I don't know how any veteran could vote for him after he called our service men and women 'losers and suckers.'" @esharon466 praised him as "a responsible VOTER" for "realizing it should Always be Country over Party." User @JerseyG81622970 also deemed him his hero and added, "Thank you for all you have done & continue to do." @irishlady77 echoed "Thank you to our navy veteran for supporting democracy. Those of us who have family members who fought in WWII appreciate his support of democracy and our rights."



 

 

However, the reactions were not all positive. Twitter user @AnthonyFormic13, bluntly stated, "Most veterans disagree." Others vigorously defended Trump's record on military and veteran issues. @RacerX_speed asked "Please explain to me why you prefer someone that perpetuates the corrupt gov that is stealing from its citizens to enrich themselves. Or one that supports an invasion of the US for political gain & actively fights."



 

 

Some accused the Biden administration of being insufficiently supportive of key allies. @Vsurryhne questioned, "Considering that this man is a navy veteran and understands how much allies are valued at times of war and other circumstances, I wonder how he feels now since Joe Biden turning has turned his back on one of our major allies, the only democratic country in the middle east." @schlop_coal asserted, "Thousands of 20-30 year Navy veterans and current serving and their spouses disagree, myself included because it's about how they treat the military and we were never treated better than when DJT was in office you might want to think about that!!"



 

 

Despite the widespread criticism surrounding the ex-president, Trump supporters continue to stand by him. According to Mediaite, a supporter recently made headlines when he claimed that he was discharged from the army for having a picture of Trump. He claimed that during training, his phone, which had a screensaver of Trump, was handled by fellow trainees while he was away. He alleged, “The females in charge of the phones saw this. And told me I was a racist, a Nazi, and a white supremacist, and this is without mentioning the insults I received from the black females toward my wife for being white...”
