The point being made was that the Trump family (like the Bushes, Obamas, Clintons etc.) have no skin in the game when they send others off to risk their lives and die. That makes it more likely we get into nonsense causes like neocon nation-building where victory can never be obtained.
Oh, and my kid’s contracting for four years. Although I’m proud of him, I’m disgusted with leaders who treat our armed forces like some global Hessian merc army that dies for people who hate us and are too cowardly to defend their own interests (e.g. Saudi “royal” family).
“have no skin in the game “
That’s a BS argument. Every president has something to lose, maybe not a son, but a lot of hard work they put into being a politician. To claim they go to war so easily without an offspring in the mix is ignorant shortsightedness. Many parents with children in the military also vote to go to war, so to claim a child in the service means they won’t support war is nonsense too.
