His rich family DID pay for that bogus affliction!

Trump can't even tell us the details of it, like if it was one or both feet.

He was a great athlete in school before this!

And after...did you ever see him have trouble with his feet? Hasn't impacted his weekly golf game, has it?

We're not stupid. Of course it was bogus and thanks to his family's wealth and connections.

Only an egomaniac like Donald Trump could find a way to make Veterans Day about him.

I'm praying that he is booed

He's not actually walking in the parade, of course. He doesn't walk. Just giving a speech.

If it is an organic event, it will get ugly, as he is detested in NY.

But knowing how Trump people like controlled environments to protect the snowflake, it will probably be a planted crowd with the public not able to get near it.

Trump is snubbing the traditional wreath laying at Arlington? They really should have picked a NY resident for the parade.

Yep.

Trump's 'bone spur doctor' was a podiatrist named Larry Braunstein.

Dr. Braunstein had his office in a building owned by Fred Trump.

Dr. Braunstein's daughters, Elysa and Sharon, have said that their father diagnosed Donald with bone spurs as a favor to Fred Trump.

They said that their father's role in Trump's diagnosis became 'family lore', something they would always discuss.......

Was Trump at Oxford during the Viet Nam War?

Trump has a 57% approval rating among veterans and 60% of those on active duty say that the military is in better hands with Trump than it was with Obama..... so this thread is odd.

Vets and military members are esentually his bread and butter.

And keep in mind if you need some hot sauce, Mrs. Clinton keeps some in her purse.

Is that why he stole the money from his "charity" that was intended for vets? You remember - the "charity" he promoted during his campaign...?

The letter was written at Oxford, where he was studying as a Rhodes Scholar.

And we were all hoping it would be Bill Clinton.
