Just one nugget from the article:

..."Instead of celebrating the fact that the American president is, in fact, a patriot, the left predictably has doubled down — and back. In deep denial about the report’s exoneration of the man they despise, they have reverted to pre-report levels of anti-Trump dishonesty." LOL

He had every opportunity to go to Vietnam, but he didn't, real vets skin crawl every time he kisses their butt.

Colonel "bone spurs" Deranged Donald doesn't have any business being declared a patriot.

You will hate him for one reason or another because you are a supporter of the worst policies known to man. I've listed them many times. When you run out of reasons to hate him, Vietnam, his anti-abortion stance, whatever, you'll come up with something else. the more successes he racks up, economy, mkt, ISIS, for example, the more unhinged the Left becomes. it's kind of fun to watch. They thought he would fail big time and it's been just the opposite. I'm sure you could be seriously thrown out of the party for acknowledging his successes. Record highs in the market just today. So if you want to concentrate on his "bone spurs" for the next year and a half like the rest of the idiots on the Left, be my guest. Childlike behavior. Weak argument.

Nope: I THINK he is a pointless little mouse and anyone that VOLUNTEERED to join the military instead "manning up" and joining IS NOT A PATRIOT.

I want a bunch veterans to explain to you, why being in the military is the only way to become a Patriot.

'Cuz they need to explain it to the president and to you.

Sew What?????? Nobody cares about his poor little bone spurs....except poor little you. The economy is booming like never before, read my lips unemployment NEW RECORD Low, JOBs, jobs, jobs, more people working today than ever before, ISIS defeated, strongest military ever so nobody will F$$$$ with us, and the list goes on. You're well aware of all the accomplishments, you just don't want to talk about it. But feel free. John Kerry lied about his military experiences, Blumenthal made up some bogus story about what a hero he was. Worry about your lying, cheating, corrupt A-holes who tried an 'attempted coup'~ what do you think about that. A lot bigger than some stupid 'bone spur' story. Can't wait to hear that.

VoteVets Rejects Trump Reboot on Veterans
Group says Trump's plagiarism, scamming veterans, support for privatizing veterans care, and hostility to disabled veterans and POWs cannot be undone

WASHINGTON - The largest progressive group of veterans in America, with over 400,000 supporters, is rejecting Donald Trump's latest attempt to reboot his image, this time using veterans' issues.

"Once again, Donald Trump is looking for a do-over - another day, another reboot. After he got caught stiffing veterans groups of millions of dollars, after he got caught plagiarizing most of his so-called veterans plan, and after denigrating the service of POWs, Trump wants another chance. Well, he can't have it," said Jon Soltz, Iraq War Veteran and Chairman of VoteVets.org.

"Through everything, two things have been abundantly clear about Trump: First, that he doesn't have the temperament or self-control needed to put America's troops in his care, second, that his plan for veterans boils down to privatizing the system and tossing veterans out into the cold," Soltz said.

"None of this should be shocking, given that Trump tried to get disabled veterans, working as vendors, kicked out from in front of Trump Tower," Soltz concluded.

http://www.stripes.com/news/pacific/key-veterans-groups-blast-trump-s-va-budget-proposal-as-falling-short-of-veterans-needs-1.572485

WASHINGTON — Three large veterans organizations criticized President Donald Trump’s fiscal year 2020 budget proposal for the Department of Veterans Affairs, arguing the historically high amount still falls short of meeting veterans’ needs.

As part of Trump’s budget plan, released Monday, the president requested $220 billion for the VA – up 9.5 percent from fiscal year 2019, when the agency’s budget surpassed $200 billion for the first time. The Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans and Paralyzed Veterans of America published a statement late Tuesday that warned the budget isn’t sufficient, given the multiple, expensive initiatives underway at the agency.

The plan doesn’t include enough funding for medical services, community care, infrastructure, medical research or the support program for veteran caregivers, they wrote.

Specifically, they argued there’s not enough to implement the VA Mission Act, major reform legislation Congress approved last year. The new law aims to expand veterans’ access to private doctors and extend benefits to more veteran caregivers.

“Unless Congress acts to substantially increase VA’s funding for FY 2020, veterans will be forced to wait longer for care, whether they seek care at VA or in the community, leaving unfulfilled the promises made to veterans in the VA Mission Act,” the groups wrote.

For more than 30 years, the VFW, DAV and PVA have compiled and sent an annual report of VA budget and policy recommendations, known as the Independent Budget, to lawmakers and the presidential administration.

In their recommendations this year, they suggested a community care budget of more than $18 billion, which they think is necessary as the agency allows veterans more access to private doctors. Trump’s budget proposal calls for $15.3 billion.

“There appears to be a significant shortfall for VA community care programs,” the groups wrote.

They also predicted a shortfall for medical care provided in VA hospitals and clinics. Trump’s proposal includes $51.4 billion, while they asked for $56.1 billion.

The groups are also concerned about the part of the VA Mission Act that extends caregiver benefits to veterans injured before the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

Under the new law, caregiver benefits are supposed to become available this year to veterans injured before May 7, 1975. However, a senior VA official said Monday that the information technology systems necessary for the rollout wouldn’t be ready until 2020.

The VFW, DAV and PVA recommended $253 million to expand the caregiver program. Trump’s plan requests $150 million.

“For thousands of World War II, Korean and Vietnam veterans and caregivers who were relying on this life-changing support, VA’s impending failure to deploy and certify required IT systems is simply unacceptable,” the groups wrote.

In addition, the groups think a lack of funding was proposed for VA research and infrastructure, describing the budget plan as “dangerous” for those areas.

Trump’s proposal includes $762 million for research, $17 million less than the current fiscal year. A VA official attributed the decrease to a one-time increase in 2019 for a research effort with the Department of Energy. The VFW, DAV and PVA had suggested a $840 million budget for research.

Concerning infrastructure, Trump’s plan requests $1.8 billion for construction, $2 billion less than the amount that the groups suggested.

The groups are opposing efforts by Trump’s administration to cut costs at the VA.

Part of the budget plan calls for rounding down cost-of-living adjustments to all veterans who receive disability compensation. The practice was standard until 2013, and reinstating it would save $36 million in fiscal year 2020, according to budget estimates.

A section described as “standardize and enhance VA compensation and pension benefit programs” is estimated to save $234 million for the agency in fiscal year 2020, if approved. A senior VA official said Monday that the action would “clarify the evidentiary standards” that are necessary for veterans to receive a compensation and pension exam. Those exams are part of the process for veterans to apply for disability compensation.

The VFW, DAV and PVA argued Tuesday that the change would make it more difficult for veterans to receive the exams.

Trump’s overall budget plan for 2020 is expected to face significant challenge in Congress, which began discussing the proposal this week. The VA was one of the few domestic agencies that the president designated for an increase in spending.

He suggested cuts for other agencies, such as the Environmental Protection Agency and departments of State, Education, Transportation, Agriculture and Interior.
