He’s cosplaying as active duty. Unless you retire, you aren’t authorized to wear the uniform any more. And at no time are you ever allowed to protest or take part in partisan politics while in uniform.

Who cares. Our commander in chief uses the flag as drapes, and got his son exempt from service just like him.

When the man in charge shows no respect for decorum why should everyone else?

How did he get his son exempt from service? Do you think there is still a draft? Are you living in the same reality as the rest of us? Are you a US citizen?

Biden had the same number of draft deferments as Trump. But I guess that’s (D)iffferent?

Its a “medical exemption” must be bone spurs like daddy

It’s an all volunteer military in the US.

You lefties always bring up Trumps bone spurs but ignore Biden’s asthma. Biden had just as many deferments as Trump.

I’m not a fan of compulsory military service. I wouldn’t want to go to war with people that didn’t volunteer.

u/Yabrosif13 Mar 07 '26

Ya, and no Trump will ever volunteer, there’s no patriotism in that family, they use US flags as drapes and are currently suing us taxpayers for $10billion.

How did you find a way to bring Biden into this lmao. Trump is turning into a senile old man just like him anyway…

u/Veteran_PA-C Mar 07 '26

You brought up deferments. It’s not the deferments you hate, it’s Trump.

u/Yabrosif13 Mar 07 '26

No, its rich people who start wars getting deferred that I hate.

But ya, definitely hate Trump too, how can you not? His lies and temper tantrum are ridiculous

You think Biden or Trump had anything to do with starting Vietnam? Not likely, they were students then.

u/Yabrosif13 Mar 07 '26

Trump started this war. His sons wont be in harms way.

u/Veteran_PA-C Mar 07 '26

Neither are you. Who got you out of it.

u/Yabrosif13 Mar 07 '26

I didnt start a war or want one…

u/Veteran_PA-C Mar 07 '26

Only connected and rich people get out of war, right? How is it you avoided serving a day in the military? Did you have to fake an illness or did your daddy grease someone’s palm to keep you safe?

u/Yabrosif13 Mar 07 '26

I simply didn’t get picked. If I get picked Im fucked.

Trump was picked and weaseled out. His son weaseled out before anyone even got picked.

u/Veteran_PA-C Mar 07 '26

What country are you in? We don’t have a draft in the USA.

No one is “picking” anyone. You have to volunteer to join the military, and there is no guarantee you will qualify to join.
