One wonders how the veterans and families of KIA's would feel about Trump if they knew of his antics to dodge service during the Vietnam War.
Five deferments - four because he was nestled in college, and the crucial fifth deferment due to "heel spurs." Trump, of course, participated in multiple sports, but his "heel spurs" supposedly made him unable to serve.
But that's not even the half of it. He has repeatedly lied about his draft history over the years. For example, he falsely claimed that he ultimately escaped Vietnam era service because of a high draft lottery number. That lottery occurred long after Trump got his bogus medical deferment. He also falsely claimed he was still in college when the lottery took place - another lie.
We all remember how the media endlessly obsessed over Bill Clinton's draft history. The media completely ignore Trump's draft shenanigans. Another indication of how "liberal" the media are, no?
