LOS ANGELES - A recent Military Times poll found support for President Donald Trump by active-duty service members waning as a majority expressed a preference for former Vice President Joe Biden ahead of the 2020 election.

According to a survey of 1,018 active-duty soldiers who submitted responses between late July and early August, 42% said they “strongly disapprove of the last 4 years with Trump at the helm.

I think the “Military Times” is a privately owned/run paper. IIRC, it also has a liberal bent.

To put it succinctly, I think this is a fake survey.

I read a report about this “poll” after it was first released. It was a “poll” of subscribers to The Military Times. Not a randomized poll of people serving in the various branches. The Military Times has a very Liberal bent. Reading its articles makes this perfectly clear. I served for 26 years and the Liberal bias of the various “Times” military newspapers was obvious to all but the most naive or clueless.

This is just a hit piece by the local Fox affiliate in Phoenix. It is two hours old as I write this. The Military Times reported their sham poll back on August 31, two weeks ago. The Military Times poll was conducted before the conventions. It poll is being used by the Fox affiliate to bring up the Atlantic story, repeating a blatant lie.

The allegations, sourced anonymously in The Atlantic, described multiple offensive comments by the president toward fallen and captured U.S. service-members, including calling World War I dead at an American military cemetery in France “losers” and “suckers” in 2018. The reported comments were confirmed independently by the AP and FOX News’ Jennifer Griffin.

People who write this type of crap need to be dealt with, and I do not mean a strongly worded letter.

You may be right or you may be lying. I have no idea. This is the problem with polls. You have no idea the makeup of the people being polled. IF they want to fabricate something it’s easy enough to do and I for one don’t put it past “pollsters”.

“According to a survey of 1,018 active-duty soldiers who submitted responses”

That is not a poll in any universe.

As we all should know by now, Rubio donors, like Yeb! donors and Flimsey Grahamnesty donors are the Cheap Labor Express.

I guess it means I am 100% wrong. The military men do love nation building and want more of it, and are completely against troop draw downs from the middle east.

Is this in before the trolls supporting the hoax?

“As part of the spinoff of digital and broadcasting properties in 2015, Gannett spun off these properties to Tegna. In March 2016, Tegna sold Sightline Media Group to Regent, a Los Angeles-based private equity firm controlled by investor Michael Reinstein.”

“He is currently the chairman of several Regent businesses, including Escada,[3] Mavic,[4] Sunset,[5] La Senza, Sassoon, Regis Salons, Supercuts UK, Lillian Vernon[6] and Sightline Media Group. He also serves as the Publisher of Regent’s various newspaper, magazine and media properties including Sunset Magazine,[7”

“Environmental reporting
Environmental reporting is a Sunset tradition that dates back to the magazine’s early years.[6] It has helped shape the debate on natural treasures as far afield as the Mojave Desert and the Tongass National Forest. The West’s national parks have been a particular passion. Occasionally it has sounded an environmental alarm, as it did with its pioneering 1969 article demanding a ban on DDT.[6]”
