I was reading about this earlier today and I'm still baffled. He is honestly saying that he thinks giving a monetary contribution directly to himself makes someone better than a person who sacrificed themselves to give idiots like him the freedom to make an ass of themselves. I really hope every single veteran sees this and realizes that voting for Trump de-values your contribution. Please know that most of us do actually respect and appreciate your service!
Hang on, how did a US soldier give Donald Trump the freedom to say stupid shit? Who was going to take that freedom away, and perhaps the most bizarre part of all: why did the soldier stop them from taking that freedom away?
Heh there are times I do really wish someone were directly threatening Trump's freedom to speak, but then I enjoy how frequently he is digging his own holes lately.
However to your point, today it's more about the US showing strength which generally discourages anyone from trying to attack us. That does include sending our troops to foreign nations to back up our allies. Even when many of us don't agree with the policies like the never-ending war in the Middle East, our soldiers are still heroes for doing their best to protect the rest of us back home.
You're welcome. AFAIK nobody I severd with or the vets I know support Capt. Bone Spurs.
John Kerry was eviscerated by the press for throwing his medals/ribbons at a protest, but Trump gets a pass? Corp. Media needs to change back to local broadcasting with market limited ownership.
