if your only answer is to deflect and change the subject, your answer probably sucks.


You a little triggered there bub? You want to chastise someone for not serving considering the position he holds. I did the same. I don't give a flying frick about your insinuation of deflection, just truths.

Have you finished passing around the flyers stating that you've changed your address?

Trump was elected because he is an attack dog, I don't know one person who voted for him because of his faux Christianity or "family values".
no one who pretends to follow the teachings of christ could ever also follow trump. the things those two stand for are polar opposites.

if this guy tried to come here today you people would lose your minds and send him back to his "shithole", assuming that you hadnt already killed him in a drone strike in one of the wars you love so much

What is Trump lecturing her about, that the military should be paid? You don't have the be a 4 star general to figure that out.

These people are pathetic. Sound bites have replaced logic and reason.

Well, I am sorry for her injuries, but I don't understand her point or her stance. Trump wants the military to get paid. She voted against it? It is easy for her to do so since she will likely be a millionaire like all Senators become somehow on a government salary. If she were still in the military, would she still be in favor of a shutdown?

That is not true.

No. She didn't. She engaged in virtue signaling.

By your brand of logic, I get to tell Duckworth to go frick herself, because I'm also a combat vet.

Support him as the apex of the chain of command? Certainly.

Support him politically? As of the only poll put in the field it wasn't looking so good--particularly in the officer corps.

ETA: Looks like someone linked the poll.

Trump never served a day in our wonderful military so he has no moral high ground here.


First, Trump serves as Commander in Chief. He didn't have to do this nor serve as POTUS in any aspect but he chose to serve. Do you realize the responsibility and pressure that comes with HIS job? I don't down play it. Also, by serving in his position, unfortunately he is a walking target. He risks his safety daily to serve so let's not pretend Trump isn't taking a lot on him to serve our country as well.

What these people have personally is irrelevant. This is an issue that affects millions of people and the future of our country.

Getting side tracked in a patriotism dick measuring contest is stupid.

Being President doesn’t excuse him for being a draft dodger. “Oh he’s serving now behind his desk with a Diet Coke”.

You read Trumps tweets?

Those were direct attacks on oppositions patriotism. I could do without all of this but our leader loves to fight on these grounds.

Was it patriotic when the DNC opted out of displaying the flag at the start of their convention?

I'm confused, if a righty would of said this to a lefty, then the circle jerk would of went on about how the righty schooled the lefty. Why no schooling here?
