Despite trying to present himself as a hero among our active and retired troops, our uniformed men and women are about as impressed with Trump as Megyn Kelly is. And he just pissed them off even further.
After crapping on veterans on three separate occasions, Trump decided the best way to avoid a bombshell story on his tax evasion over the years was to crap on veterans….again. At a town hall and in front of a room full of vets, Trump implied that soldiers with PTSD were weak.
Of course, Trump knows all about combat. Well, maybe he would if he didn’t need to get 5 draft deferments.
Needless to say, veterans were none too pleased. They took to Twitter to vent their anger and disgust with Trump.
Hey @realDonaldTrump here's my 'weak' Dad who volunteered to take your place in Vietnam. He died early. RIP dad. He also paid taxes. pic.twitter.com/iP68znCsWP

Veterans: Think of your buddy who got blown up in Iraq for lack of body armor. Remember Trump needed the money for this: #TrumpFinancialTips pic.twitter.com/t6wj5mbDh6

Really enjoying watching non-veteran Stormtrumpers in my TL explaining how draft dodger Trump will take care of veterans like me

Trump says veterans with mental health issues aren't strong. Living with mental illness takes more strength than he will ever know.

Let me be CRYSTAL CLEAR.
Trump has NEVER EVER supported the military, their families or veterans.
If you think otherwise, you're delusional. pic.twitter.com/qWVfpQ9ePF— Cornelia (@PaladinCornelia) October 3, 2016
And who could forget Trump’s show of valor when he said that having sex with numerous women at a time, leaving him open to possible STDs, was his own “personal Vietnam?”
Once again, Trump has demonstrated he lacks the class and proper leadership required to run our armed forces.
