It does not matter what is said. Trump was a draft dodger- 3 deferments for school followed by a medical deferment. As a Viet Vet that says Draft Dodger to me. In his mind he was smart to dodge the draft and service to the nation and McCain was stupid to serve, get shot down and captured. The man is not fit to be CinC- if he was he would be on McDonalds butt about the abysmal performance of the VA and not McCain. McCain is a Senator who heads the SASC, McDonald is the executive appointed by POTUS to manage and clean up the VA. Did I mention that McDonald has also been a successful businessman so maybe Trump does not attack him because it might show that success in business does not necessarily transfer to success in government. Think about it.

CAPT (Join to see) Great article, but I don' think Trump will care at this point. He made the comments to get the American people take notice of him (positive or negative) he is gaining free airtime with his antics!

CAPT (Join to see), sir, it is not clear to me that Mr. Trump is educable on the subject. A more detailed account of the challenges facing POWs can be found in Adm Jeremiah Denton's book "When Hell Was In Session". I was fortunate enough to have met Adm. Denton on one occasion; a truly impressive man.

CAPT (Join to see), I was particularly moved by the loudspeaker incident when he was in solitary.
