How come no one ever challenges buffoons such as Jesse Ventura?

Drive down a dirt road in the country and dogs will come out and bark at your car as you drive by. Jesse Ventura is of no more concern than those dogs.

The dogs bark, but the caravan moves on.

Ventura lies so much that he has just about all versions on the internet somewhere, from PTSD from the horrors of war to never having been fired at, from never leaving the Philippines to super secret SEAL missions in Vietnam that no one can prove because they are so secret and there are no records of to prove he was in Vietnam.

This is from a 2002 interview he gave the St. Paul Pioneer Press it is one short page of text and covers most of Ventura’s BS.

Ventura’s best claim to fame was suing the widow of Chris Kyle. oh and moving to Mexico. Don’t tell me he’s moved back. 😣

It seems that the only criteria that Ventura used to refer to President Trump as a coward is the charge that he dodged the draft.

That charge, if true, is a valid reason for the charge. And the term is Chickenhawk, like Cheney and Bolton. But I am of the understanding that Trump had bone spurs or something.

But Ventura did a good job as governor.

That is because Kyle straight up lied about him in his book. The lawsuit was underway and was continued by Kyle’s estate. Ventura lost good well paying jobs because of Kyles lie.

The lawsuit was paid by Kyles insurer.

Ventura defamed the reputation of the U.S. Navy SEALs , whose symbols he flaunts .

How did he do that? Former Seal, Don Shipley, would dispute your baseless claim.

But I digress, who are you to speak on behalf of our Navy Seals? What BUDs class did you graduate from?

I’m Jesse Ventura. I won’t fight you straight up. I’ll wait til you die then sue your widow.

That fight claim by Chris Kyle was never proven, no witnesses. And if you believe his bogus claim, then you believe that Trump raped E. Jean Carrroll.

And for the record, Kyle made several other claims that were never substantiated.

In 2022 the Federal appeals court threw the whole thing out.

Ventura didn’t go to Vietnam, also he was UDT and didn’t do SEAL training,

Don Shipley would disagree.....

“How did he do that? Former Seal, Don Shipley, would dispute your baseless claim.”

Other SEALs dispute Shipley.

Shipley contradicts himself when he acknowledges Jesse had the UDT and the not SEAL Navy job code.

Jesse never served in a SEAL unit. He was assigned to the SEAL reserve unit after Vietnam but he never made the transition to SEAL by completing the training and earning the SEAL NEC.

You don’t know what you’re talking about and it’s very funny. Seeing you try and peace together incorrect information to fit your view. It’s not worth even attempting to educate someone that would have no interest in reality.

“I would love to know a single celebrity that I worship!. Come to think of it, there’s barely a single one that Gardner even more than some of my respect. It’s just rather tiresome to see people who don’t know what they’re talking about comment on things they have no business commenting on. But your idolatry and hero worship is really hilarious, and shamefu”

If you are going to stalk people in private mail expect we will simply post what you send. Grow up. You are no one’s hero so don’t think for a second we give a rat’s patootie what you think.

Seal team training 6/19/70 - 11/6/70.

11/18/70 - 12/9/70 Basic Airborne Training

SERE Training 1/4/71 - 1/9/71

Vietnam Service Medal w/Bronze Star

Before you spout anymore nonsense, I suggest you watch Don Shipley's video......
