According to a poll quoted in Time, the military is the most respected institution in the US, having 73% support compared with 36 & 9 for the President and Congress.

On Tuesday Trump was endorsed by 90 retired generals etc and Clinton is currently marshalling her forces for a show of brass.

I wonder will they line them up on stage as a backdrop to future rallies, while bands play The Halls of Montezuma or even In the Mood.

I put this in the same categorey as celebrity endorsements.
