Most recent poll of the US military had Trump as their choice for Commander in Chief.

Even if they like him it doesn't mean he should order them to break the law. That's absurd. Even if they (or I) wanted to use greater measures, which I would, having a commander in chief order me to break the law as a matter of course is ridiculous.
The guy does a total disregard for the rule of law, our system, and what a president needs to be.
Like I said, I just don't understand his allure other than appealing to base emotion. He'll be as big of a disaster as Hillary.
"I feel very, very strongly about the need to attack and kill those terrorists who attack and kill our people. I know people who died on 9/11. I will never forget those events. I will use every legal power that I have to stop these terrorist enemies," Trump said in a statement provided to POLITICO. "I do, however, understand that the United States is bound by laws and treaties and I will not order our military or other officials to violate those laws and will seek their advice on such matters. I will not order a military officer to disobey the law. It is clear that as President I will be bound by laws just like all Americans and I will meet those responsibilities."
I'm not surprised he's said things out of both sides of his mouth. On the one hand he says he'd violate the law and the soldiers would just do it because he says so, and on the other he says he'd follow the law. You pick the one you want.
He has said both. Which means you cannot know. Which is it?
You guys are being played. Trump is a fraud.
