Military recruitment in the United States is way down at the same time as the Biden Administration is driving out so-called “White supremacists” (anybody who voted for Trump or believes in the Constitution), those opposed to taking the COVID vaccine due to religious or health concerns or natural immunity, and people who refuse to use the preferred pronouns of gender activists. The result of all this is a neutered and divided military increasingly unable to fight and win wars.
Recent polling by the University of Chicago found that two-thirds of Republican and Independent voters and 51 percent of self-described “very liberal” voters agree that the U.S. government is “corrupt and rigged against everyday people like me.” Trust in all our institutions is falling and the military is no exception.
A December 2021 survey by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute determined that Americans’ strong confidence and trust in our military had declined from 70 percent to 45 percent over the previous three years with 11 percent of that collapse happening just since February 2021, a month after President Biden took office. The disastrous pullout of American troops from Afghanistan in the summer of 2021, leaving Americans, allies and more than $7 billion dollars in weapons and equipment behind, also played a part in the steep decline. Our increasingly “woke” military is losing the hearts and minds of the American people.
Young Americans join the military for a variety of reasons, but patriotism is a common element. Critical Race Theory (CRT) indoctrination is now required throughout our Armed Forces, including at our military academies. CRT teaches that our nation is systemically racist and that all White people are essentially evil. It decries our Founding Fathers, our Constitution, our institutions, our capitalist economy and our entire way of life as irredeemably bigoted.
