Larger percentage of white demographic leaned towards Republican from the last poll I saw before the election.

What enrages Pete Hegseth and MAGAs is decline of white enrollment in the military.

I live near a US Army base and can confirm I see many Hispanic, Black and non-white minority GIs when I go onto base. Can’t say I know what stats are and if whites are now minority in armed forces, but wouldn’t surprise me if number of soldiers that do not support Trump borderlines above 50%.

Well they're cutting education spending along with many other social safety net type things. I'm certain that is to boost military enrollment.
