I’m not sure he was; I thought he had medical deferments.
Screw them.
“Conservative PAC” trash. Trump didnt dodge anything!
Just which candidate are they pitching for?
The Trump Banshees have been shouting down Cruz supporters for weeks now, but the volume of pro-Cruz postings is increasing exponentially. Looks like a building victory for reason over rhetoric.
He wasn’t! He at first had a college deferment. So did I and millions of others. Then when he did take the physical, they found bone spurs on his heel. Probably would have needed surgery. A deferment. I was also deferred for a medical reason. Not uncommon.
I am a Cruz supporter, but I try to evaluate charges against Trump fairly. The racism charges were pure rubbish and made me sick as I am sick of Republicans being called racist.
This ad is pretty darn accurate. Bone spurs really? Too many vets were so willing to get into wars they even lied about their ages and disabilities to get in. Bone spurs?
Based on that Chicken Donald should call himself a loser.
Where did little Rubio and Ted serve again?
You could find dozens of decorated veterans who opposed President Reagan, if you searched hard enough, but that was no reason to vote against him. Trump and Cruz both do well with veterans. I’m going to ignore these silly ads. [Cruz is my first choice, but not because Trump was never in uniform - neither was Cruz, Rubio, Hillary, or Bernie.]
As a 20 plus years retiree I am calling them out.
this is from a Rubio group? where’s Rubio’s service records?
He wasn’t. He received a college deferment.
“Donald Trump hasnt served this country a day in his life, essentially dodged the draft in Vietnam through multiple deferments”
First, most eligible men didn’t serve in the VN war. And secondly, the service Trump performed by derailing Bush’s campaign is much more important than my service. (And I served in VN)
Scroll down the the 7th paragraph and it starts telling about all the deferments he got.
No offense but what do I care what some retired military personal thinks of Donald Trump? We don’t live in a military dictatorship.
No there there.
Trump had college deferments.(Like a bazillion other people)
Graduation = no more deferments.
He was reclassified 1A and in 1968 went for a physical and was classified 1Y.
The draft turned into a lottery 12/01/69 and was based on birtday.
Trump’s number was 356. That number would never have been called to be drafted.
Did Cruz serve in the military?
Someone should ask that Vietnam vet how he feels about the trade deal that gives those commies he was fighting access to US markets in exchange for a promise not to pollute their own country.
