Mike Allen of Axios further reported this week that Trump has been “physically mocking” the thumbs-down gesture McCain used to deliver the deciding vote against the Republican health-care bill in July. Did that mocking involve an imitation of McCain’s stiff arm movements? In case you haven’t read a newspaper in the 45 years since we played on the same Dixie Youth Baseball team together, McCain got the hell beaten out of him by the communists who held him in the Hanoi Hilton for more than five years.

At that same time, Trump was dodging the draft by claiming that bone spurs stopped him from serving his country in uniform. And yet this crippling condition didn’t stop the spoiled Ivy League student from playing football, tennis and golf. After four draft deferments, Trump graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1968 on the same day 40 U.S. servicemen were killed in Vietnam.

Net positive for Trump.

His first stint in killing Americans was 134 and 72 million in damage. He would do 50x's that in congress.

Sad that you would fabricate disgusting lies to discredit a US POW and war hero to cover for your idol who dodged the draft with lies about bone spurs.

You seem to have a lot of trouble differentiating between draft dodging and draft exemption.

The dodgers had no exemptions to keep them from being called up, so a dodger left the country so as not to be arrested. How many draft exempted men were arrested?

You seem to be the one having trouble. Lying about your health to get an exemption is draft dodging.

So you're saying he didn't have medical evidence to back up his reason for being exempted? I did not know that.

trump did have a letter from his doctor citing bone spurs, a doctors whose name he cannot recall.

But if bone spurs are preventing you from being drafted it would be extremely difficult to play tennis, squash, golf and football. So this was just another lie in the long list of falsehoods from trump.

Most people tried to avoid being drafted to Vietnam. Be it medical, education, or enlisting in the reserves. Vietnam was a lose lose. It's not that we couldn't win, or didn't win every battle. It's that we had no strategy to actually win the war and get out of there. It was a political war with ridiculous rules of engagement which told everyone they didn't want to actually win this war. I don't blame anybody for doing whatever they had to do to avoid being drafted into that clusterfrick. Some 58,000 Americans died in Vietnam for no damn reason whatsoever than for the guy next to them. I don't blame anyone for trying to avoid being drafted into that shite show.

Actually it's not. I understand words. I don't speak or understand cartoons of Homer Simpson. I like to go with point, counter-points. It seems to have more of an effect.

Since you can't put it together, I'll offer you something...

What is Homer doing that is also being done in the thread?

You're welcome. Use your words.
