And; Hiram Walker's military history is as equally illustrious. Trump resents them specifically because of that fact.
Equal parts jealousy and shame, due to his having deliberately evaded his chance to shine in a like manner.
The petty little man is forever burdened with regret and shows it at every turn of his tiny wee gears.
That makes a lot of sense and is probably exactly what's going on here.
Bush and McCain actually are heroes and are patriots. They did serve in America's military, and they have been given ribbons and medals to honor their service to this great nation. Trump on the other hand did everything he possibly could to avoid having to serve in the military during a time of war.
Remember when a veteran gave Trump his Purple Heart, and Donald said "I always wanted one of those?" Trump is jealous that these men were both presidents AND American heroes, something Donald will never be. Trump is jealous and spiteful because of that, so he insults them.
Yeah he went from earning medals for his country to betraying it. I don't care what he did early on, what he has become is a disgruntled disgrace.
So you agree that he did earn those medals by fighting for his country. I appreciate that much.
So would you like to see an American patriot and decorated combat veteran that is dying be insulted by a sitting president? Or, because you don't agree with what McCain did as a politician, are you okay with Trump insulting a dying veteran?

You expect to be taken seriously with this stuff? What passes for modern political discourse in America has resulted in the whole country being "disgruntled". Your posts are among the proof.

And they call themselves conservatives! The irony...

Yes he did and yes he has. I wonder how many liberals who defend and praise McCain were bashing and ridiculing him, the same way they do Trump now, when he was running for the presidency?
You don't appear to have set any higher standard for yourself than the person you are vulgarily speaking of. It leaves one to wonder how it is that you believe you are in a position to judge.
Gaslighting will not work. We have known for a while that we cannot kill this beast with kindness and civility.

It all fits.
Yes, he is so spiteful and jealous that he is showing the veterans the most respect that they have seen in many years through the Veterans Administration funding. Nice try though.
But Bush (both of them) are ENEMIES of Trump.
Why on earth should Trump speak respectfully of them?
Because the Ex-President's Club is a very exclusive group of individuals. All of them, even the ones we disagree with politically, have deserved respect before this administration, and they are all good friends. Donnie will never be invited over for fried chicken on Sunday with any of them.
