Summary
Donald Trump’s appointment of John Phelan, a private investment firm chairman with no military experience, as Secretary of the Navy has sparked backlash from some of his supporters on Truth Social.
Many pro-Trump users, including veterans, criticized the pick as rewarding a donor or friend instead of selecting someone with Navy experience.
Some expressed feelings of betrayal, accusing Trump of abandoning their values and making decisions that harm the nation.
The move has raised questions about qualifications and loyalty among his base.
What the hell were any Trump-voting servicemembers expecting? That Harris and Walz were making stuff up when they brought up time after time how much Trump hates servicemembers and his country if they get in the way of his needs?
I think it’s pretty obvious they never heard a thing any democrat ever said, only what right wing media SAYS that ‘the libs’ are saying or doing
Yes. They thought it was all a lie to make Trump look bad.
To be fair, there was only ironclad fucking evidence to back it up, and reading isn’t their strong suit.
They were only focused on the parts where he talked about how he’d be “hurting the people he needs to be” hurting.
