Trump suggests vets with PTSD aren’t ‘strong’ and ‘can’t handle it’

Draft dodger lectures veterans.

His sentences are so cut up with poor grammar and wrong words, who knows what he was saying or meant.  It will be the same with world leaders.  They won't know what he means, either, so why not just bomb the hell out of the US in case what he said was interpreted as a threat.   Why would anyone vote for this dumb ox?

This is another media driven story..taken out of context...

OK, I agree.  After re-reading it.  Many people I am sure have friends and relatives who have suffered this.  Its personal to me.  But I jumped to conclusions.  Every candidate should do everything possible to improve physical and mental health benefits for our military.  Our military should also be the very first votes in.

He's so inartful in the way he phrases things. I can guarantee that there are plenty of vets who would hear his spiel and conclude that if they were struggling psychologically/emotionally/physically, they'd rather die than admit to being anything less strong like those in that room.

Well thats the thing. His "inartful" comments happen every time he opens his mouth on any subject.  I personally believe that the facts and history show that Donald Trump kisses up to the military when it suits him, then leaves them in the lurch as he did with his fundraiser stunts. (Trump supporters out there, don't bother denying it. It's on record he has to be forced into honoring his commitments to the military and everyone else).

So when this idiot gets up there and 'inartfully' says this crap, it's because he A: has no idea what he's talking about RE PTSD and B: doesn't care anyway.
