Trump Said Americans Who Died in War Are ‘Losers’

[vanzandt]

This is way worse than that. Other than audio of proclaiming he molests children, this is about as bad as it gets in American politics.

If it is in fact true, I agree 100%.

Its interesting. As I pointed out before with the bounty thing.... why didn't they save it for October?
Me thinks we are gonna have one hell of an October surprise from the DNC. No idea what it could be though. Unless its some secret Russia tapes, like worse than the alleged pee-pee tapes, that might have found their way out of the country. They do say all those hotel rooms over there are bugged. Trump is smart enough to know that however, but he may have underestimated their espionage capabilities regarding what went on around the hotels when Trump or the minions paid a visit.

I dunno, but I think we're in for a biggie this Fall. Maybe it will be Pence/Biden in the debate.

Biden had 5 academic deferrals same as Dick Cheney, his late son Beau served as a major in Iraq.

My older brother had (still has a bit) asthma, he was perfectly capable of athletic swimming and running when pollen was not high though he did nearly die twice as he was dependent on a dry powder "spin haler", you have to put a capsule in the device and turn it right so the powder would dissipate, unfortunately this was fiddley (noisy) and required a strong inhalation which was a problem when turning blue. Modern gas inhalers, very different matter. It would have been fairly reasonable to not want asthmatic soldiers at the time.

Trump's bone spurs were entirely fictional.

Trump's sons assassinated endangered animals for fun instead of serving.

Citation?

No citation about his respiratory problems...just a good guess that he didn't outgrow it and that its not uncommon for it to be a problem again (it returns) after a certain age especially during allergy season in some states.

Certainly puts him in the super-high risk Covid category I would think.
Nothing like a little fever as an excuse to skip a debate.

His latest health report made public showed he still had bouts of afib, has had a few non cancerous skin problems removed, a few other very minor notes but nothing in the way of asthma or respiratory problems. Overall healthy for his age.

Big sports nut in his youth, nothing mentioned in his autobiography. Not saying he didn’t suffer as a younger child but by all accounts he grew out of it.

That doesn’t make him a bad person. It’s just hypocritical to knock Trump over this issue when Biden is in the same boat.

Biden isn't hiding his medical records like Trump is.

He's hiding Hunter's tax records though.

Hopefully you're not stating that Biden (asthma history) and opting out of the draft 1x is on the same level as Trump getting out of the draft 5x, attacking McCain's military service and not engaging Putin about the bounty on the heads of our soldiers when Trump had the opportunity to challenge Putin about such on multiple occasions...

You're not saying that...right ?

Debate jokes aside considering the debates have yet to happen...

They both are in the high risk Covid category and should lead by example concerning that issue if its an issue of concern to others.

Need to verify but I think Biden had 5 deferments as well? That was the point of my rebuttal. Other issues not addressed.

Both missed the draft.

Let’s be clear, the vast majority of those drafted and served in Nam were Blue Collar children. If your family had money, you went to school. Most wealthy that served during that time enlisted.
