Never mind the fact that he called WWII war dead "losers" and "suckers" on the day he was supposed to honor them at a French cemetery, but he cancelled because it was raining. He's a total POS on so many levels.

Do some research. the correct answer is six.

Biden received five student deferments before getting a medical deferment for asthma. At the time, Biden played football and was a lifeguard.

Trump received four student deferments before getting a medical deferment for bone spurs.

Biden is an asshat but has never fawned over the troops and use them to pander to his mouth-breathing base like Trump has.

I know that maths are hard, but (“Trump received four student deferments before getting a medical deferment for bone spurs.”)…..4+1=5. Maybe Papa Trump told you it’s six, but it’s actually five.

Maths is hard but I guess the readings is hard, too.

I’m not talking about Biden because he’s a clown, just not as big as Trump is. The point wasn’t the deferments, the point is the utter hypocrisy a scumbag like Trump perpetrated on the American public when, behind the scenes, he was calling them suckers and losers.

Remember, he doesn’t like people who have been captured? That pussy doesn’t know how to spell sacrifice, much less how to exemplify it.

The only one Trump said wasn't a hero and called a failure for being captured was the traitor John McCain, who aided the Viet Cong after he was captured by taping a statement denouncing the U.S.

As far as calling the military suckers and losers, this is from a story by The Atlantic which cited "anonymous sources", though none of these sources were ever identified or willing to go on the record. This has been debunked many times by many people, including the Sec. of State and the French Ambassador, who were there at the time, that this never happened. Even John Bolton, who hates Trump, wrote in his book that this was BS.

For someone who you say doesn't like the military, Trump sure did an awful lot to help them.

Trump signed The Veterans Affairs accountability legislation, “to allow senior officials in the VA to fire failing employees and establishes safeguards to protect whistleblowers.” This improved VA services.

Trump implemented the Veterans Choice health care program allowing vets to use regular doctors and hospitals and not have to drive to a VA.

In 2018 he gave the military the biggest pay raise in decades. The next year he gave them another pay raise.

Trump went to Afghanistan on Thanksgiving to be with the troops. Not like Biden who spent his Thanksgiving at a billionaire donors house on Nantucket.

Trump forgave all student loans for disabled vets.

Trump or Pence met every plane returning with the remains of every solder killed in action overseas. Trump personally called every family of a soldier killed in action. Obama didn't do that.

Trump withdrew large numbers of troops from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Europe. He brought home over 60,000 troops in his four years.

He forced NATO countries to spend more on their military so he could reduce U.S. troops deployed.

Trump pushed for and signed two Bills -- The Veterans Benefits and Transition Act and the Forever GI Bill Housing Payment Fulfillment Act -- that work together to guarantee payment of housing and schooling costs for military veteran students.

He established the world's first Space Force.

He increased the military budget every year he was in office.

Sorry, I don't buy your whole premise, especially since soldiers and Vets seem to love Trump.

“…the traitor John McCain, who aided the Viet Cong after he was captured by taping a statement denouncing the U.S.”

I’m assuming your handle is meant to be ironic because this is the hottest of hot takes.

John McCain spent five years in the Hanoi Hilton being tortured daily resulting in permanet disfigurement after getting shot down. He refused early release multiple times. Your take isn’t just wrong, it’s the height of Trumpette ignorance.

“story by The Atlantic which cited ‘anonymous sources’”

Watergate, anyone?

“This has been debunked many times by many people”

By a bunch of hack Trump cronies. And you’re going to cite John Bolton, of all people? So Trumpers say everything in his book was a lie…except the one thing that makes Trump look good? How convenient.

And your bloviating over Trump’s “accomplishments” for what he did for vets? More lies.

“In 2018 he gave the military the biggest pay raise in decades. The next year he gave them another pay raise.”

Another lie. The military gets pay raises every year no matter what. And his “biggest raise ever” of 2.4% was actually the biggest in 10 years…when Obama gave them a 3.4% raise.

https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/07/01/politics/trump-didnt-give-troops-first-raise/index.html

“He established the world's first Space Force.”

LOL

“He increased the military budget every year he was in office.”

Fat lot of good that did, huh? AND cut taxes for all his rich corporate cronies. Spend more, tax less, triple the deficit (despite promises to eliminate it in eight years)…it’s almost like a guy with six bankruptcies to his name has no concept of how to spend his own money, much less everyone else’s.

“Sorry, I don't buy your whole premise, especially since soldiers and Vets seem to love Trump.”

Trump is a chickenhawk and soliders/vets who support that chickenhawk are buying into the macho BS he puts out and suckers like you lap it up like three-day-old milk.

Keep shilling, bro. ✊🏻

Sorry, forgot about these gems….

“Trump signed The Veterans Affairs accountability legislation, “to allow senior officials in the VA to fire failing employees and establishes safeguards to protect whistleblowers.” This improved VA services.”

Trump protecting whistleblowers? Now I’ve seen everything.

Improving VA services? Oh, so you’ve never used VA services? Ask a veteran. I know a few. The responses may surprise you.

https://www.militarytimes.com/veterans/2018/01/03/va-firings-spiked-after-trump-signed-the-new-accountability-law-last-year/

“Trump implemented the Veterans Choice health care program allowing vets to use regular doctors and hospitals and not have to drive to a VA.”

Laughable. This is one of Trump’s biggest and most often repeated lies.

Trump signed the Mission Act in 2018, which mildly updated the Veterans Choice Act. Obama signed that bill into law in 2014. The Veterans Choice Act also just happened to be co-sponsored by a real veteran, a man you astoundingly referred to as a “traitor,” the late Sen. John McCain.

And I’ll leave this here, just for you:
