Trump did indeed show contempt, even h**e for veteran of our wars..

More for those captured, wounded or k**led..

How do vets feel. read from one old fellow..


Excerpt from a long Quora post..


WHAT DO VETERANS THINK ABOUT TRUMP’S INSULTS?

One of Trump's "losers" and "suckers" is 95-year-old WWII veteran Harvey Hafter, who spoke with evident p***e of serving his country on a PT Boat, then let the Demander-in-Chief have it with both barrels: "Boy is he a loser! What has he done? Other than screw up, and that's exactly what we called them in the Navy: a Foul-Up, Top to Bottom. He can't insult us and get away with that kind of nonsense! Who does he think he is, that Draft Dodger? He's a coward! And I'd call him so to his face! I wish he were here right now! I'm five-foot-six. I weigh 135 pounds soaking wet. And I challenge him. Any way he wants: pistols, swords, fists. Any way he wants, 'cause that kind of an insult, I won't stand for it! And neither will any other service person. Who does he think he is? Wh**ever chance he had of getting a v**e from me is gone. I want someone who's calm, quiet and not a Loud-Mouth, an Empty Barrel. I want Joe Biden. That's it."

Canuckus Deploracus Loc: North of the wall

WOW. I guess ALL the other things he has said and ACTUALLY and Physically DONE to increase and support our MILITARY has all been lost on those that want to believe these new lies?

How can any of you sleep at night or look yourself in the mirror after buying into some liar. It seems there are those that love to create lies and laugh at all those that believe in the lie.

How about how we look at actions and comments and actual SUPPORT he has done for OUR military instead of buying into some crazies lies and other acts of deceit?

These Are The Military Projects Losing Funding To Trump's Border Wall

The Pentagon revealed on Wednesday the full list of $3.6 billion in military construction projects that will get shelved to help build a wall along the U.S.- Mexico border, according to documents obtained by NPR.

Lawmakers from Virginia to Arizona learned their states will lose millions in military construction projects as part of the plan.

Virginia Democratic Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner slammed the move, saying their state alone will lose more than $77 million in planned construction projects. In all, four military projects will be impacted in Virginia.

Kaine said. "The well-being of American troops is the core responsibility of every commander in the military, yet the commander in chief is shirking that duty so he can advance his own political agenda."

en. Martha McSally, R-Ariz., who is facing a tough ree******n bid in 2020, said a project involving a ground t***sport equipment building at Fort Huachuca will lose $30 million in project funds.

They lead to V**es??

Simple Sam Loc: USA

Just asking, would this had been necessary if Congress had passed a bill to pay for national security and the "wall"? I did notice the use of the word "shelved" which means postponed and not cancelled. I also noticed, reviewing the imbedded document, there was no housing, playgrounds, hospitals, PX/BX, theaters, or commissaries on the lists.

Simple Sam Loc: USA

Perhaps v**es. But, I was thinking that opinions are like asses, everyone has one, some are more rounded and better proportioned than others.

It was my understanding also that the money had been taken from the housing, etc as you list.. have no idea why the list does not mention the particulars..

Also read that the appeals court stopped this useage.. but perhaps that was another attempt at diverting preassigned monies..

The link was to a near 2 year old article, so I would not be surprised if we had more than one diversion involved.

Simple Sam Loc: USA

Much has changed over the last year, most importantly the military "projects" have restarted. Not only did the apelet court rule against further use of military funding the supreme court ruled against it. I guess in the next weeks we will hear that the President broke his promise to build the wall. Catch 22.
