RE: Adam challenges soldier on Trump's response to veteran issues

in #military7 years ago

Trump insulted countless veterans when he said this about John McCain, a former POW: “He’s not a war hero…He was a war hero because he was captured. While McCain was serving his country, Trump was enjoying a series of draft deferments and once even bragged to Howard Stern about his sexual exploits and avoiding STDs by saying “It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave soldier.”
Trump also insulted the Muslim parents of a fallen soldier—a soldier who made the ultimate sacrifice for this country.
From my opinion veterans don’t support Trump because he’s bad for America. He is the opposite of everything that made me want to enlist and serve my country.They hate Trump !

Defending McCain wasn't a good way to start your point. edit: most veterans do support President Trump, particularly the combat arms types. Interpret that however you'd like.
