The military as in the actual grunts, no. They're loyal to the US as a nation not to politicians.
The ones that do this kind of shit are officers who play the political game and basically throw their men and their morals under the bus in order to win brownie points with congressmen.
This is why my Company Commander straight up told me that he had no intention of being anything more than a Captain. Because he saw what happens to people once they get promoted past Captain. It becomes less about being good at your job and more about fucking other people over to make yourself look better.
I don't mind.
But keep in mind the only perspectives I can give you is that of a Marine infantryman NCO. I don't know how the military operated outside of my job.
Military is against us too...
All hope is lost?
