Nearly half of U.S. veterans say Pres. Trump doesn't listen to military leaders enough, according to a new survey.
President Donald Trump draws stronger support from U.S. veterans than from the general American public on his leadership of the U.S. military, including his handling of North Korea, NATO allies and Russia, according to a new Pew Research Center survey released Wednesday.
Fifty-seven percent of the veterans who were surveyed said they approve of Trump as commander in chief of the U.S. military, compared to 41% of adults in the separate survey. And a majority of those veterans approved of the president's dealings with North Korea, NATO allies and Russia. The surveyed veterans expressed a more positive view than the general public toward three of Trump's major military policies: sending troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, withdrawing from the Iran Deal and banning transgender individuals from serving in the military.
