APRIL 28--Despite Donald Trump’s claim this week that he avoided serving in the Vietnam War solely due to a high draft number, Selective Service records show that the purported presidential aspirant actually received a series of student deferments while in college and then topped those off with a medical deferment after graduation that helped spare him from fighting for his country, The Smoking Gun has learned.

During a TV interview Tuesday morning, Trump--who spent his high school years enrolled at the New York Military Academy--said, “I actually got lucky because I had a very high draft number. I’ll never forget, that was an amazing period of time in my life.”

He went on to recall, “I was going to the Wharton School of Finance, and I was watching as they did the draft numbers and I got a very, very high number and those numbers never got up to.” The word “deferment” was not mentioned by Trump during his chat with the morning show hosts on WNYW, the Fox affiliate in New York City.

So, what was Trump’s number in the draft lottery? Also, a 2-S deferment was not draft-dodging. Nor was a 4-F classification, unless it was fraudulently obtained. Draft-dodging was going to Canada.

About that substance you’re missing.....

You got some substance in comment #42, and it is much fresher material than the 20 year old bird cage liner material that the Trump opponents are left to fish out of the attic.

d e s p e r a t e, much?
