That’s where MSM saw something that irked them. Some service members brought Trump gear for POTUS to sign. Politicking in uniform is a big no, but you really have to ask yourself– is getting the President of the United States’ signature– when he’s visiting you around CHRISTMAS– really something we want to nail them for?

Already see some Democrats angry Trump signed MAGA hats in Iraq but soldiers brought the hats themselves and asked for them to be signed so they’re really just upset at soldiers for having different political views. It’s the holiday season, they should try not to be the Grinch. pic.twitter.com/JqcfVTSn1c

Obama signed magazine covers of himself in Kuwait, i think we can cool the outrage on soldiers getting autographs. It's ridiculous. If they wanted Obama gear autographed i'd be happy for them because that's what they want and they got it. For what they sacrifice, lets just shush.

Don’t worry though. CNN is on it.

Video footage and the written report of Trump's visit with service members in Iraq showed signing of hats and a "Trump 2020" patch.

But troops' requests for the autographs could brush up against Department of Defense guidelines for political activities. https://t.co/jUUqF91bcX

Ratting out service members to own the Prez!!!! So cool of you.

Seriously, this is strictly forbidden under military rules. Politicking not permitted. https://t.co/xRgaAbDUqw

There’s so much back and forth.

Yeah, get 'em Bradley! Take those troops down!

Getting an autograph from the President is not politicking. Grow up, and stop being so pedantic.

Liberals were angry Trump allegedly didnt visit the troops, but he did, and then they were angry at the troops for liking Trump.

No one gave shit when it happened with Obama. Don’t liberals have anything better to do?

Its not politicking, its greeting the Commander and Chief.

Read the awful people replying to the original tweet. They are so full of hatred over what was likely an innocent (and small) mistake that they’re demanding blood.

Know precisely zero about her, but want her ruined. Twitter is terrible.
