The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

Quoted from Box A Rox
“He’s a war hero because he was captured.
I like people that weren’t captured.”

— Donald Trump, arguing that Sen. John McCain is not a war hero.


While McCain was serving his country, risking his life in a war,
Donald Trump was receiving deferments (in 1964, 1965, 1966, and 1968)
to stay out of that war.
Not, as Trump once claimed, because he had high lottery numbers.

“The difference between Sen. John McCain and Donald Trump:
Trump shot himself down. McCain and American veterans are true heroes.”
— Mitt Romney, on Twitter.


Quoted Text
“Why would anybody listen to Mitt Romney?
He lost an election that should have easily been won against Obama.
By the way, so did John McCain!”

— Donald Trump,

Not participating is a good thing.

That makes him a leader, rather than a follower.

THE NEWYORKER

Trump Says He Heroically Avoided Capture in Vietnam
by Staying in U.S.


SAID TRUMP:
Quoted Text
“The Cong were after me,” Trump said, visibly stirred by the memory.
“And then, just in the nick of time, I got my deferment.”

The former reality-show star said he had never shared his record as a war hero
before because “I don’t like to boast.”

He said that he only disclosed the episode now because “the way this nation treats
our deferment veterans is a disgrace.”

Trump complained that he received no official commendation or medal for his heroism,
calling the lack of recognition “shameful.”

“Those brave Americans who, like me, avoided being captured by not serving at
all—we are the true heroes,” he said.

I have to believe that countries across the pond are all laughing hysterically at this bullshit spewing from Trump's
mouth. He's making us a laughing stock around the world!

it don't matter who ends up in the white house.
the wheels are already in motion.
and they're moving a warp speed!
sit back...pass the pop corn and watch.

Ah yes...forgot...Bumblspiracy at work! Voting is not
needed because it's all been decided behind closed
doors and we are just clueless pawns in a game of political
intrigue and ruthless tactics...the people are mute!

Yes.. the wheels that put Donald Trump on the top rung of
the Republican ladder.  (OMG!  How embarrassing to be a Republican)

Meanwhile, the Dems have two very capable candidates who actually
can help America.
