Making the 'his opinion is irrelevant because he never served' argument gives the Left cover whenever they try to kneecap the military conducting its mission. Case in point: Iraq.
Gotta disagree, basmaner. When the level of experience with the military is NIL, then any decisions against the military should be viewed with suspicion.
In this case, we know they simply threw veterans under the bus so they could spend more and still pursue their dreams of amnesty for illegals.
Their lack of experience was so complete that they had no idea how significant the sacrifice of experienced veterans guiding new soldiers is to making our military the best in the world AND keeping those new troops safe.
But their military records or lack thereof are irrelevant to the discussion

I disagree. The perspective and experience of our leaders is indeed relevant when it comes to their decisions that can put our troops in harm’s way. Fighting political battles in the halls of congress is a far cry from putting your life on the line in a foreign hell hole.
Most professions and occupations demand perspective and experience from their leaders. This leads to better and wiser decisions.
