Also, I find it odd that anyone would applaud a president for being a troll.

Yeah but not all -- some became Presidents -- in fact quite a few became Presidents.

In this context anyone who avoided service because they had the money and resources to do so is considered a draft dodger.

If you are referring to me, Yes, I'm a Veteran. I get a little suspicious when someone on here posts things like, thousands in my "reserved" unit, and sub hunter "on" a P3 Squadron. These are not phrases normally said by a Vet. Perhaps he was a little over excited when he posted. That's possible I guess.

The cult proves they are really not too bright when they continue to gleefully post trolling tweets as something to be proud of. But you can't penetrate their thick-headedness to make them understand how much they denigrate Trump every time they crow about his "trolling." They can't see what a bad light that puts their hero in.
You can't fix stupid.

How do you celebrate their service by making them work?

Kinda like MOM making her own Mother's day or birthday party. Clean the house, shop, cook and do the dishes. BS.

You wants celebrate? Fix the f------VA.

Provide health services and house the homeless vets.

You want to see and enjoy the machines, join the military. Let me guess, since our tax dollars paid for our nukes, you also want to see and enjoy these as well?
