Yes, military school is a lot more disciplined than many of the pogue ass units I have dealt with in my career.

Are we sure he didn't serve in the Russian military? His loyalty to the Kremlin seems unshakeable.

To all the soldiers out there, thank you. It was not your fault. You fight for ideals and a way of life, not that fucktard.

You tell me, folks. Which way did the majority of the military vote?
AnonymousBach
To be fair, getting 5 draft deferments means he dealt with the military bureaucracy a lot. It's practically being a general really.
LoligoTX
I doubt he dealt with shit. One of his daddy's paid underlings dealt with it for him.
So an armchair general.
Armchair cadet.

Why is this creature still alive?

What's great about this is it's completely believable from his mouth

Because he's special... I mean rich.
waltjrimmer
This reminds me of people I knew in high school who thought they knew all about the military from playing video games.
Raumance
You understand most military jobs are not combat roles?
Yes, I do. But, no, they didn't. I knew plenty of kids who wanted to join the military to kill people.
I think I replied to the wrong comment.
MercuryGreen
Commander in Chief also does not count as "in the military."
Mewmus
well, the CIC is the very top of the military chain of command
The civilian control of the military is still civilian.
odraencoded
He's not in the military, he's above the military
CIC is the CIVILIAN head of the military.
E1evenChar1ie
Please tell me DT didn't actually say this, I've hated him since The Apprentice and my opinion of him hasn't risen.
stsword
Yes, he said it. And then whined about the media being unfair to him. Because his douchebaggery is somehow the media's fault.
TheFlyingTripleSpinningAtomicScrotumVaporizer
Oh this isn't even as bad as it gets. He's spoken out against vaccines, called global warming a Chinese conspiracy... The list goes on.

Draft deferments?
SamArt53
Try google
Kylarus
Given his age, he would've been alive during the Vietnam conflict, when we did have a draft in place. While we still have registration 1/5
for selective service, or draft, we haven't used it since the Vietnam conflict. He, like many prominent US figures have gotten deferred 2/5
from draft service, or dodged the draft, and did not serve when they were supposed to. This is different from not enlisting, and 3/5
doesn't near the weight it should in this country. To not enlist is no big deal, that's a personal choice. To avoid/defer the draft and 4/5
then run for public office, let alone the Presidency or Congress? That's a slap in the face to anyone has does serve in any capacity. 5/5
Kumquatz
He loved saluting yesterday. Commander in chief. He is our military. Oh hypothetical god, he is our military....

The worst thing? Now, after all the shit he's said about the military, no one in the military is allowed to say anything negative about him.

Highest rank in the military yet most no nothing of war... granted generals pull the strings but still he has final say
dmoore182
Obama didn't know shit either.
Rifneno
Some REPUBLICAN generals have pointed out that while other presidents didn't know much, they were eager to learn. Trump thinks he knows it
all and refuses to learn. Others listen to their advisors. Trump thinks he know it all (about everything) and is annoyed to be questioned.

And tons of vets supported him!! Oh, and he called John McCain a loser for being a fighter pilot who captured and tortured
[deleted]
I don't think they ever called him a loser. Peter gets tortured, that was McCain's experience

John McCain is a dick to natives aka indians.

Knowing about all this is unlikely to sway someone who does their duty voting down the party line like a good little puppet, of either party
strato661
but less and less people are voting along party lines now.. this from my gov textbook from like 3 years ago. I think its a plurality now
Trump and McCain were feuding at the time
Takavos
And that makes it right to say stupid shit like Trump did, no it doesn't.
Rophy
so he acts like a child having a tantrum in public, lashing out emotionally, except this was a world stage. great.
deadandbloated
Proving that being a vet doesn't necessarily immunize one against fucktarddom
eatyourmeat
Shit they waive below 35 ASVAB scores for some people. Scary they get guns
DrForester
Read his disgusting quote regarding the purple heart.
ImmortalLoveRodd
"I always wanted one of these" Who the fuck WANTS a Purple Heart?
Mimsey
It's how you know Republicans are full of shit when they pretend to honor the military. They say they do then turn around and vote for this.

Absolutely. Democrats just don't build their platform on patriotism.

+1 for facts. But note the true quote isn't much less head-slapping.

The main difference is apparently "guys that go into the military" vs "actual soldiers"

"My teacher is so strict that I feel like I'm in the military." Don't take exaggerations seriously. Text/quotes don't convey entire meanings

But... that's pretty much the same level of stupidity as the "original" quote?
AuryxBecauseWhyNot
I dont know if that link is to discredit or support the post, but either way, Snopes is not a reliable news source...
Barkinsons
They are not a news source, it's a fact checking site that actually sources information. You can then verify the source yourself if you want
WarriorSoul
Apparently nowhere reliable is in this post-facts world. Only The Don provides the information we need.
HolyCringeLordBatman
They list their sources, anything with sources is reliable if you're not mentally retarded.

PaperCl1p
I like how snopes calls it "mostly true", but if you read further down "no direct attribution to Trump"
gandraw
it is not a literal quote, but the paraphrasing doesn't seem dishonest.
Here's a quote: ... Turns out he never said that ... It's "Mostly True"
What he said was something like "He said that in prep school he received more military training than most actual soldiers did". Close enough
