That's something trump and his people have never understood.

They expect 100% loyalty, but treat the troops like actual shit. And this isn't gonna be a temporary thing, he's pulling NG from the reddest states because he expects them to be most likely to obey, but it's just pissing them off.

He should have spent the next two years spoiling the shit out them. Bonuses out the ass, lots of long paid optional training so they can bank money. Give them all the newest toys and gear.

Build up that loyalty and then bring them in next 1/6 when you're going to pull some shit.

It's really not that hard to figure this stuff out, the only saving grace is they're comically inept

    Honestly (and this is a personal opinion) with the view i have of people in general, they just need to spoil them the last 6 months before the election for them to forget all about all this and become loyal. Then as soon as the elections are done it is no longer needed till the next time.

    Why spend all that money over the entire period when just the last few minutes are enough to change people's mind.

    You don't even have to spoil them. People believed the last lie when he said he gave them the biggest raise ever when it was the normal annual COL adjustment and then claim you're spending the money screwing over blue states.
