The social media posts of American citizens who don't like President Donald Trump are the focus of the latest US military-funded research. The research, funded by the US Army and co-authored by a researcher based at the West Point Military Academy, is part of a wider effort by the Trump administration to consolidate the US military's role and influence on domestic intelligence. - - - --Lauren-- Lauren
