I he was never treated for his depression I wonder why he went on record with it.

[Lurkinanloomin]

He missed his Afghan tent boy.

[bkopto]

If cupcake is so fragile, then why should he be president?

[Rashputin]

Seven months without literally getting the shaft, as opposed to the figurative shafting common to military service, probably did put the poor thing into a deep depression.

[MSF BU]

As a JAG officer? How many line officers and those serving at the combat arms battalion level have returned without any problems. Reagan had it right with his ‘We ask, Don’t join” policy.

[Seruzawa]

Oh boo hoo. Cry me a river, REMF.

[Cowboy Bob]

He’s the Thomas Eagleton of the 2020 election!

[JBW1949]

From what I’ve heard, his duties in Afghanistan were serving as driver for a general moving around the base...

Someone posted a picture of him wearing brand new Combat Uniform and empty magazine pouches...

[bert]

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

[Yo-Yo]

That’s ringing endorsement to have your finger on ‘the button.’

[Eddie01]

[alternatives?]

He is trying to check off another victim box. It’s the Democrat way.

[robowombat]

What did this man actually do in Afghanistan? I have seen a half dozen different descriptions of his duties he performed. Inquiring minds want to know.

[Junk Silver]

He’s one soldier who just couldn’t bear to leave his buddy’s behind.

[rktman]

Unstable. DQ’d, red flagged. JIC.

[NorthMountain]

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”.

[alloysteel]

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.

[VideoDoctor]

Exclusive: Buttigieg says he suffered depression on return from Afghanistan

Buttgig... SNOWFLAKE ALERT!

[Skywise]

And this endeth his presidential run.

You do NOT want somebody with PTSD near the nuclear launch codes

[Aria]

This is news?

[Senator_Blutarski]

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