It is not a misleading stat. The vast majority of Veterans voted for Trump: 60+ percent. It is that simple. You are trying to break them into groups but this is irrelevant to voting and why we have the Orange Turd in office.

The article is about veterans who were fired from federal jobs. That particular population, the subject of this article, probably voted for Harris over Trump in greater numbers.

I get your point now. You are focusing on the people in the jobs. My focus was on Veterans in general and how their voting effects all Veterans and their jobs. Sorry I was not clearer.
