Yeah. "Until". Then you started throwing stones like a good little Republican toady, falling in line with what Trump tells you to do.old salt wrote: ↑Fri Aug 09, 2024 2:06 pmNitpicking ?

He knew he'd almost certainly end up in a war zone. The only uncertainty was which war zone.
He didn't volunteer for a specific operation, much less specifically combat, but I 100% agree with you that he was taking that risk that he'd be sent (not all were)...did he do it out of patriotism? I dunno, but I'm not going to question it, so my assumption would be positive on that as well as the other motivation he's said he had, to get out of his prior situation...but what I do reject 100% is his attack on Walz.
It's dishonest and all the more reprehensible coming from someone who did choose to serve.
And all the more gross when supporting someone who flat lied to get out of serving.
Your precious political party comes before the men and women you served with. I don't get it, and I never will.
What did he claim that was a misrepresentation?
