A few days ago they also ran a story about a poll showing Trump lagging Biden among the military.

- vandyswa 6y agoAh, thank you. I was pretty sure it would be something like this, but couldn't find details anywhere else.
- liability 6y agoCheck the dates involved, this explanation doesn't hold water. However there may be another story from months ago that prompted this.
- Balgair 6y agoWhat makes it all the more frustrating is that Stars and Stripes didn't conduct the poll, they just reported on it. The poll was conducted by Military Times with Syracuse University. https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2020/08/31/as-trumps-popularity-slips-in-latest-military-times-poll-more-troops-say-theyll-vote-for-biden/ https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2020/08... To note in that poll, ~60% of officers would like to have another Commander in Chief.
- pstuart 6y agoAny mention of he who cannot be named will bring out the downvoters here. Pity, isn't it?
- ars 6y agoAre you seriously implying Trump has a time machine? This memo happened before the story you linked.
