Yeah he won’t talk to them because he knows he is massively screwed and is probably is kicking himself for listening to his father. If it is found and proven that this guy not only deserted but joined the Taliban and assisted them in killing US troops, he is absolute toast. But on the other hand maybe not being that we got a Taliban as POTUS.
I wouldn’t be surprised if his father ordered him to do what he did..remember the email he sent his Dad(Notice he didnt send an email to his mother) saying how America is “Disgusting” and rambled on and on and on..his father wrote back to him and said “Go with your conscience” that was code..because if anyone’s son wrote a rambling email to them they wouldn’t respond with 4 words..they would want to know what is going on, what is causing their son to say such things
