Trump had a draft number in the 300’s. (Mine was 359.)

Having a high draft number is not “draft dodging.”

You are a slanderer, like Bush sock-puppet Cruz.

It’s tough for me to take any of these “draft dodger” charges seriously.

My dad was in Vietnam, and he really shocked me when he told me, based on his experience with the American military, he would fully support and aid any of his sons that chose to resist being drafted.

Aside from the fact we haven’t been in an existential conflict since WW2, he believed our military was such a clusterf**k that he couldn’t, in good conscience, advocate a young man placing his life in their hands.

Now I’ve never been in the military, so I can’t render such an opinion myself. But when a guy with the record of service and accomplishment that my dad had says such things, I can not cavalierly dismiss them.
