How is one a draft dodger when a doctor proclaims that they have a physical problem that disallows them from joining our military? Of course the Trump bashers will insist that it was a paid for bogus affliction. I hear Biden had a similar problem but of course the left doesn't want to talk about that.
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.
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.
Clinton was a Rhodes Scholar. That was a damned fine reason for him to receive a deferrment, but could hardly be called "fleeing". He wasn't hiding out - he was afforded one of the highest educational honors that can be bestowed.
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.
As much as I hate acknowledging this, Trump is a supporter of our veterans. Veteran health care is of his few legislative accomplishments. So I'll give credit where credit is due. It has been a big help for veterans, who used to be very restricted with their providers.
How fitting that Trump, a coward who avoided serving his country in Vietnam, will lead the 100th Veteran's Day parade.
And we were all hoping it would be Bill Clinton.
