1. Dont believe the MSM which twisted what he said.

3. Mr. Trump reportedly did put his name into the lottery.

In case you do not know, there was a law in place during Vietnam war era, that college students could get a legal deferment. Because the military DID NOT NEED every draft age man. And, the country DID NEED college educated people to carry on the nation’s business.

You have something against college education, and laws which exempt college students?

Trump went out of his way not to go. No fan of McCain by any means but a buffoon like Trump is the last person to mock a pow

During the draft, all draft-age boys and men could not possibly have gone into the military; there would’ve been too many. Guys with high lottery numbers never went. College deferments were given. There were 4D (IV D) deferments for people studying for the ministry.

And I heard Trump explain the medical reason(s) he didn’t serve. If the military refused to take him for medical reasons, what was he supposed to do? Force his way in? Pay attention.
