Always a dumb talking point. Barron is an adult. Trump can't "send him".

"Wont send your own?" It's a fricking voluntary military, Jesse. Like is he suggesting Trump do a draft?

Commenting on what you think other people should do is naive, uninformed, and juvenile….. but freedom of speech and all that….

You can get a service medal without having to set foot in Vietnam. I’m not trying to disparage his service just pointing that out. I did not see a bronze star mentioned in his service record.

Obviously this is a democrat talking point. If I was Barron, I'd request a service academy appointment or ROTC at NYU. He is officer material.

He’d probably get rejected for most combat roles due to his excessive height.

This is a dumb attempt and isn't even correct. Why would military service prevent this whatsoever? Tard

That is an order of magnitude different.

do tell

The Royal Family in the UK does not exercise real power, and as such they are mostly a beloved plaything of the British people. Donald Trump holds the full and awesome power of the American presidency. He is the most powerful person in the world, and is uniquely hated. There have been numerous attempts on his life.

The danger that a seedling of the titular royal family sees is a small fraction of the danger that a Trump would see in a similar unprotected role.

Now, I have “done told” you. I should not have had to, as this is perfectly obvious.

He joined the Delaware National Guard at 34 when his dad got him in through the direct commission officer program as an attorney, skipping OCS. Hunter Biden is a vet as well. When he was 43, his did got him an age waiver, as well as a second waiver for a drug-related charges, through the direct commission officer program in the Navy. He lasted @ 10 months before a positive drug test had him receiving an administrative discharge.


I thought he died shortly after dragging Saddams sons out of the rubble holding a bloody knife presumably from killing them both in close quarters hand to hand combat.

Jessie is an a-hole but he's right.

He’s a stupid a-hole and he’s wrong. Everyone in our armed forces joined voluntarily. If they start drafting people then he may have a point.


Correct. It would be melt some Democratic Socialist and never Trumper minds if Barron signed up for the military. with his IQ and pedigree he would probably be placed in officer candidate training program.....Colonel Barron Trump.

He also claimed that Trump was not shot and it was all 100% fake and staged

Hey Jesse. Military service is voluntary. When you join the military, you are well aware you can be called upon for combat. Just keep hiding out at your place in Baja, Mexico and STFU.

Stupid take, no one in the US is being conscripted to the military right now. They all signed up willingly knowing the risks and are rewarded generously for it.
