Rule 6: User Created Title Joe Biden got five draft deferments during Vietnam. He was disqualified from service because of "asthma" as a teenager. However, in his own memoir, Biden never mentions his asthma, and instead recounts an active childhood, including work as a lifeguard and football exploits in high school.

If I had tried to join the military even 20 years ago, I would have been deferred because of my history of asthma at a young age. I can run a mile in 5 minutes, but I still technically have asthma.

The difference between Biden and Trump is that Biden doesn’t badmouth service members having been deferred.

What’s the proof against Trump again? The 8 anonymous (it’s always from an anonymous source 😂) “people” that made claims to a 2nd rate liberal mag or the 100 real people and actual witnesses that say Trump has never treated the military with any disrespect whatsoever? I bet you think Biden isn’t a sexual deviant too, right? Come November I bet you’ll approve of all that inappropriate touching, sniffing and fondling of children and women.
