I’m wondering exactly how she lost her legs. Was it while she was flying a helicopter or being hit by an IED while in a land vehicle. I guess it doesn’t matter but she’s ALWAYS referred to as wounded WHILE serving as a combat helicopter pilot. That could mean two things.

Thanks for the posting, SJ.

I watched Tucker both nights, but enjoyed reading it again.

Tammy, like Kamala, is not eligible to be VP or POTUS.

Before Benedict Arnold turned traitor he was the most revered and patriotic military officer.

People change. Even your closest family can become traitors.

I remember when the left actually accused President Bush of being a draft dodger because he served in the reserves. Bunch of jackass hypocrites.

I remember when the Obama campaign made fun of McCain's inability to use Twitter because of the injuries to his hands.

I also remember when a draft dodger ran against a war hero in in 1992, and who won.

Apparently it is only one side that is supposed to shut up. I do wonder how anyone can possibly believe that they are a patriot, and believe that Mount Rushmore honors four traitors at the same time. One of these beliefs is not like the other one.

And I think she's trying too hard for the VP job. She is a Woman Of Color, but it's the wrong color. Kamala Harris would be my best guess.

Injury in battle does not bestow any special meaning (see: Benedict Arnold), it’s the content of the heart that matters. And Tammy’s heart is as cold and black as Arnold’s.

There is a monument to Benedict Arnold's battle wounds at the Saratoga National Historical Park in New York.

"Arnold was wounded in the foot during the Battle of Quebec, and suffered further injury in the Battle of Ridgefield when his horse was shot out from under him. His last battle injury was at Saratoga, and it occurred near where this monument is located"

this is exactly the fight Trump wants....draw these AMERICA HATERS OUT AND EXPOSE THEM...i dont care if she lost 3 legs. This whole things is out of control. And frankly, if this nation has changed that much, where the founders of the greatest country ever created would be erased from history, then i wouldnt even wanna be President...they can have it then....its over.

We visited Saratoga a couple of years back. Saw the boot.

I don’t see any lefties wanting that removed.

Heroism and sacrifice are great. They do not provide lifetime exemptions from bad faith, lies, and treachery.

Injury doesn’t make your ideas automatically correct.

She MAY (I do not know for sure) hold Thai citizenship as well.

The odds are better than even she doesn’t. Thailand is pretty stingy when it comes to handing out citizenship.

My nephew nearly got deported from Thailand despite having a Thai mother. He was four at the time.

Don’t forget John McCain. Got himself shot down and coasted on that the rest of his life. It got him a free pass for creating ISIS and other demonic behavior. Duckworth and McCain will have fun in hell.

Does she support defunding the police? If so,she's not a patriot.Does she kneel before "black lives matter"? If so,she's not a patriot.Does she believe that "Make American Great" is a dog whistle? If so,she's not a patriot.

And I don't give a rat's hindquarters how many limbs she's lost.
