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...

OK...Just looked it up:

While deployed, he was assigned to the Afghan Threat Finance Cell, a counterterrorism unit that targeted Taliban insurgency financing.

Looks like he was an accountant....

Poor baby. My son has done three in Afghanistan and one in Iraq. A lot of guys and gals have been in and out for the last 17!years. Buttpeg was never shot and did not earn his Navy CAR.

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.
