A balanced headline. Those who pretend to speak for the millions of US veterans, who say veterans believe (whatever) are doing a disservice (so to speak) to all who served.
Military veterans have one thing in common: they served in the military. Their beliefs in all regards in all issues runs the full spectrum. After all, they're human.

Yep just like anything else, Democrat military members hate Trump just as much as their non military brethren.
I’m more interested in how they feel about a Dem senator wanting to award Peter Strzok a Purple Heart got having to answer questions in public. Then same guy asking the military to support a coup against Trump.
how do military people feel about those?

Legitimate questions. Unlike asking veterans about the summit. No different than anything else Dem military are against it and Repub military for it.
Why not ask a nonpartisan question that actually involves “the military” as a group?

As “the military” is it you role to take over the government if a congressman tells you the president is compromised by a foreign power?
As “the military” do you feel disrespected that a congressman said a guy testifying on Tv should get the same award you have to get shot in war to receive?
Great questions that can be answered in a non partisan manner as “the military”

The two things I mention are directly related to the Russia summit, which is the topic of this article.
Do you know why they are only asking veterans? because active military is not allowed to say any publicly disparaging comments about their commander in chief.

Blacklabel: "Yep just like anything else, Democrat military members hate Trump just as much as their non military brethren."
All your stating is fact: Trump is universally hated by those who have and haven't served, and you guys ought to stop talking about things you Don't know. Stop saying what is patriotism when you clearly have no idea, since the men and women who serve and who DO know may be against Trump. It's funny to Watch you say people who support the 5-time military service dodger "patriotic" and "hero" if they served, but not patriotic if they served but Don't agree with your dear leader.
The hypocrisy is pretty clear, friend.
