Not very. The DoD is aggressively apolitical with regards to domestic politics.
Oh is that why it’s always left-leaning governments that get targeted?
Jesus fucking Christ.
You seem to be lacking in information, here is a non-comprehensive place for you to start learning about our government's history:

Strange that there are right-wing governments that were hostile to US interests targeted in that list, then. Fuck, did you even read your own source?
The DoD doesn't choose its targets, Einstein.
Huh
Ok, perhaps I shouldn’t have used the word “always” because it have you a red herring to latch onto while missing the point.
The point being that you don't even understand that the DoD doesn't pick its own targets? Fuck's sake.
