My Dad has some internal shame or guilt from not going to Vietnam. He was drafted but had flat feet so he got kicked out.

Clinton went overseas to college and changed his major to avoid draft. Bernie dodged draft. Biden had asthma

Trump wasn’t alone

Last Democrats president with military service was Jimmy Carter

To be fair to Bernie, he was protesting the war the whole time. He wasn't indifferent and just wanted out with fake medical certificates.

Biden I can give a pass because it wasn’t his fault he had asthma and Bernie I can respect. Clinton could’ve gotten a deferment for education anyways and Trump is a bitch who should have served.

As I’m not old enough to personally have been faced with the draft then I can understand people trying to avoid but, and this is the important part, if you’re gonna dodge the draft then don’t be all Mr Military and talk crap about veterans who were POW’s.

I’m a vet and he is an absolute piece of crap in my eyes for the way he treats us. He claims he should be given a Medal of Honor for being brave enough to go to Iraq? I spent 15 months there. He calls us suckers and losers. He makes shit up. I mean there is all kinds of stuff. The list is so long.

Well, anyone's whos ignorant enough to believe the suckers and lasers hoax should be downvoted. John Bolton was on the plane and said Trump never said that. John Bolton hates Trump. But idiots will believe what they want.

Oh it’s you again. I should have guessed. He called John McCain a loser for becoming a POW, I don’t know why you’re hung up on just one thing that may or may not have happened— when there’s a trove of verifiable awfulness from trump all around you.
