The idea that America has fought wars only for profit explains why Trump sees service men/women losers and suckers. If Trump is right it would mean people were/are suckered into joining and potentially losing their lives only to make money for someone else. So, in his view people who went to Vietnam were suckers and he was smart to con his way out of it.
All these comments are in line with what he has said before. He DOES think people in the military are losers and suckers.

Once again Donald Trump has done what even God couldn't.
He made liberals love war and the military industrial complex!
LOL> i mean you guys blow my mind.
The members the military realize he's trashing their leadership. Future members of the military will think twice about serving. Trump is setting our country back in so many ways in only three years. Sad for the country.

im a vet. I served in Desert Storm.
i disagree with you wholeheartedly. Taking shots at the brass and reminding the fighting man that the Commander in Chief is on their side and not just going along with the generals isn't going to hurt their feelings. Not at all.
Donald Trump hasn't set our country back. you made a pretty bold statement. you mind pointing out one way he has set the country back?
I understand that some big Trump fun moderates politics forum but please do not get ridiculous Trump holds no copyright on his verbal pearls delivered as a President. Ban me for good for what I care, it would be a really nice thing of you to do actually, but the dear leader is saying some stupid crap recently, even the right wing propaganda machine will have trouble spinning it.
These are the words of our fearless commander in chief who was so proud of a big and beautiful military budget he takes all the credits for.
I'm not saying the military's in love with me -- the soldiers are, the top people in the Pentagon probably aren't because they want to do nothing but fight wars so that all of those wonderful companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy," Trump told reporters at a White House news conference.
Eisenhower said this decades ago. Military industrial complex. The govt. needs war and conflict for many reasons. Trump is telling it like it is.

Lol so where did you serve? What branch?
I assure you us enlisted never trusted the Pentagon elites any more than we trusted the politicians.

Did Einseinhower accuse Truman in underfunding military? Did Eisenhower boast about big and beautiful military budgets he single handedly pushed through despite shenanigans of the evil military hating democrats? Did Eisenhower call his generals dopes and babies unable to win wars just to turn around and blame those generals for the military operations he authorized as a commander in chief? Trump belongs in a zoo not in the white house.
Nope. This tread is about Trump making the "wars for profit" comments, which explain the "losers and suckers" comments. He said it, no matter how badly you want to pretend he didn't.
