Military and veteran support for Trump is a striking phenomenon that has garnered significant attention, and for several meritorious reasons this trend persists today.
Reflecting on my journey from captain to engaging with a mentor who rose to the rank of general, I consistently seek guidance from the principles and values that define true patriotism. As my mentor remarked, “We are all Americans, but we are not all patriots.”
This stark distinction is deeply ingrained in the military ethos and offers insight into the overwhelming support veterans and active-duty personnel continue to demonstrate for Donald J. Trump.
Traditionally, military and veteran groups have leaned Republican, with approximately 65% aligning with the GOP.
Current polling suggests that 65-70% of military and veteran voters support Trump—a slight increase from previous averages in the 2016 and 2020 elections.
However, I believe these polls may underreport Trump’s actual support base. Given the exogenous factors at play, such as potential retribution or societal backlash, some patriots may be reluctant to express their preferences overtly.
Despite this, the voluminous anecdotal evidence suggests that Trump’s strong loyalty remains robust, bolstered by factors that starkly contrast with Democratic leadership.
The military’s support for Trump is epitomized by his demonstrable respect, gratitude, and appreciation for their service.
Trump has shown up—literally and figuratively—attending ceremonies, shaking hands, and meeting with Gold Star families.
He has not gone AWOL (like most Democrats) when his presence or voice was requested, and this assertive approach has had a transformational impact on how service members view his leadership.
Trump is viewed by many in the military as someone who “has their six,” a quintessential phrase that signifies camaraderie, loyalty, and readiness to protect and serve.

President Trump and the Military/Veterans, Law Enforcement and other Border Patrol are a natural fit.
