Tubberville says we have 44 now but only 7 during WWII. Seems like quite an expansion to me. The odds of them all being leftist is approaching a 100% I would bet.

Part of the expansion has been the creation of new commands to deal with new threats and reorganization of the military. I think the military is a microcosm of our population, so I think they are likely evenly divided along the political spectrum. I don't think most are wiling to be outspoken, because they have seen what happens when you speak the truth to power. I think there must be a lot of turmoil in the military today.

Obama purged all the conservatives out in his 8 years.

I didn't know this. I remember he famously relieved McCrystal for speaking out against the Administration. I remember they had another Reduction in Force in the middle officier ranks and talk about that by doing so, a "generation" of officers would not be there to rise to the G.O. ranks when the time came. Democrats historically don't like the military, because in my opinion, they have always vaguely feared them.
