It is not sum. The vast majority of veterans voted for Trump. Over 60%.

Can't even be mad at them. Poor idiots were convinced to join the military. That's the first time they got shafted. Then they got bombarded with missinformation that made them believe voting for trump is a good idea even though it very clearly went against their own interests. Shaft 2: Electric Boogaloo.

It's like a Pokemon that keeps hurting itself in its confusion. These people are in need of assistance. Somone should pat their shoulders and say "there, there". Best we can do.

Saw a comment yesterday that said:

Two to the thoughts and one to the prayers

Felt it would apply to a bunch of situations.
