It's shameful that we treat veterans like that. (Let alone anyone)

But the two people I blame most for the VA are Bush and Obama. Both knew about the problem and had more power than anyone to change it. They should both be ashamed for themselves about it.

I posted this strategy yesterday morning.

I would venture to guess that if Trump has any kind of organization they are constantly gathering information on the public's honest feelings and true position.

I'd venture that Trump has several someones gleaning this and other website sounding out the public.

If they saw your idea and picked up on it as something that would strongly reasonate with the public if ACTED upon it surely wouldn't surprise me.

I'd guess Trump knows the power of LISTENING to the people better than anyone because that's how you shape shows for television that get ratings.

Brilliant post nickcarraway. We are on the same page. One of my favorite FreeperFriends depended on the VA. I miss him.

Them and every member of Congress. Trump will end up shaming them into it.

I really hope trump goes after the big one — the DEBT..... I want to hear him squash it on taxes, spending, the welfare state and jobs .....

I’m waiting ..... Hoping.... Cautiously hoping ......

Greta had a whistle blower from the VA tonight. After he explained what was wrong they at his suggestion agreed to contact Trump. He was AA and somewhere in my mind the idea hit that many of the vets denied service were too.

Yep - LIKE, on your post. The left lives for the "Gotcha!" moments on people they want destroyed, but they have been relying on that for too long. Now someone is using the left's own guerrilla tactics against them, FINALLY. When someone gives them a "Gotcha" moment, the political operatives mobilize in the media and flying monkey shills to their internet blogs to lay siege to their target and peck, peck away until the victim publicly folds, backtracks, is discredited and so forth. The problem with Trump is that he shifts gears every 24-48 hours or so and goes off in another direction. Before the leftists, RINOs or other assorted a-holes can get nestled in and all comfy for a siege, they have to abandon the "Gotcha" moment they were all primed to beat on and run to the next one. Trump is doing to them what they've been doing to us, attacking from all directions, doing it often and doing it loudly. I don't know about Trump's feasibility for being the president, but he has stepped in to fill a domestic policy power vacuum that has been created via the dysfunctional branches of the federal government and IS driving domestic policy, right here, right now. Love him or hate him, this is what is going on right now, and everyone else is either missing in action or playing catch up.

>>>What has he said about the Hildebeast and Bernie Sanders?<<<

As I recall listening to him, he raked Clinton over the Coals. I’m sure he mentioned Bernie, but right now Clinton and her Republican Mirror Images are his Targets of Choice.

Trump says it, unlike his Republican Competitors and Obama succumbs to the pressure.

Did Juan McCain push our Dear Leader into lowering the Flags to Honor his fellow Veterans?

No one. Which is why DT now owns the issue. He’s playimg his opponents like an orchestra. He couldn’t have set this up in 24 hours. So, more than likely, it was planned.

Trump is so far ahead of the field. He's got scads of highly trained, highly paid marketing specialists who KNOW how to get real results of what people want. Politicians? They have scads of paid consultants who are focused on one thing: Getting just enough votes for their candidate to win. Which means they avoid the chancy things that bring big returns. Which means they're sappy and dull.

McCain’s notion of honoring vets is pretty much limited to starting more wars.

What has he said about the Hildebeast and Bernie Sanders?

Not his battle yet, his current battle is with the MSM and the GOP, but he has derided Hillary many times.
