Based on the way he said this...maybe it’s just me, but I think he wanted you to ‘feel’ for him as a GI, and recognize that he had something like PTSD. Maybe it was fake-PTSD but it doesn’t matter.

If he suggests this....that he might have PTSD and never got treatment, then the last job I’d want him to have is President.

He is deep swamp. His dad was a bigwig in some Gramscian socialism-communism society. He has spent a lot of time working for some of the usual suspects, he’s not just a aw-shucks mayor of small midwest town. His over the top faggotry is cover for some bad stuff.

He wants to establish credibility as a “disabled veteran” damaged by the hated BOOOOSH and the detestable Republicans. You HAVE to vote for him. To do otherwise is to be homophobic and to oppress the “differently abled”.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition, and VA has specialists that deal with the problem.

Perhaps Peter Buttigieg should avail himself of these services before he gets too deep into the campaign. He may not realize the land mines or the triggers that may set him off. Having a nervous breakdown on the campaign trail is pretty difficult to explain away or spin to your favor.

Well obviously yes, my point being everybody is focusing on that, and that alone, and ignoring the rest. We saw a similar deal with Obie.

“He’s queer....... that’s all, no more there”

He’s not only queer but he wears it on his sleeve and is in your face It’s his whole identity. But the REAL problem is that he is a democrat.

to oppress the “differently abled”.

Mr. Thomassoulo: I don't want you to think that anyone's gonna treat you any differently just because of your, uh, handicap.

George: Handicap? (gesturing to his cane) I'm not handicapped.

Mr. Thomassoulo: I'm sorry. Differently, uh, advantaged.

George: Yeah, I didn't mean that.

Mr. Thomassoulo: Of course you will have your own private, fully equipped bathroom.

George: When do I start?

Depression is common in his demographic and its not from PTSD.

The guy’s a spook.

Multiple tours. Multiple ME languages. Suddenly a mayor and now a candidate. He’s being run.
