The poll also found that 54 percent of them also approve of the president.Another 47 percent of independent vets and 10 percent of Democratic vets approve of the president. "U.S. veterans, who broadly supported Donald Trump in the 2016 election, have remained positive about the job he is doing as president," wrote Shiva Maniam, and analyst for the pollster. "In April, 54 percent of those who have served in the military approved of his job performance. Trump’s job approval among the overall public was just 39%, according to the same survey, which was conducted using Pew Research Center’s American Trends Panel," Mr. Maniam said. "Last fall, Trump held a wide 60 percent -- 34 percent advantage over Hillary Clinton among veterans, according to the national exit poll conducted by Edison Research for the National Election Pool," he added.
