If Trump is the Next Commander in Chief . . .

June 30, 2016

. . . it is unlikely that he will continue the practice of Presidents Dub-Yuh and I’ll Bomb Ya of inviting Iraq War veterans missing an arm or a leg or two to go “jogging” with him in DC for smiley-faced photo-ops.  Donald Trump has stated that the Iraq War was a mistake and a terrible waste.  If enough wounded veterans hear this and come to believe it, they are more likely to want to spit in the faces of Bush and Obama than allow themselves to be used as pathetic political pawns.
