Our Service Members support our COMMANDER IN CHIEF…
I figured that was a good thing.
But as reports surface that DASTARDLY airmen had the gall to openly support our President…

WOW! How awful.
Claude Taylor, a self-proclaimed “liberal provocateur,” and former Clinton White House operative had A LOT to say.
This is Fascism and a clear violation of the UCMJ. Do they have armbands, too? Who ordered this? https://t.co/OFRJoEeBjH

Supporting our president is Fascism. GOT IT.
And it’s not like this is new:
The patch has been spotted in photos for at least two years. Service members can be seen wearing the patch in a U.S. Department of Defense post on Twitter from September 2017.

But of course, it’s a huge deal now that libs are freaking out over it… so here we go.
According to Fox News:
The federal government is reportedly reviewing its Defense Department policy regulations on dress code after some service members wore a uniform patch with the words “Make Aircrew Great Again” during President Trump’s visit to their ship in Japan on Tuesday.
The patches were spotted on the sleeves of several service members aboard the USS Wasp, where the president spoke Monday. The phrase emblazoned on the patch, along with a likeness of Trump, is a play on his campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again.”
The military has uniform dress codes and regulations against partisan political acts while in uniform. The Navy said Tuesday that the matter was under review to ensure that the patches did not violate policy or regulations.
Because SURELY they have nothing more important to attend to.
