DRAFT DODGER

I noticed yesterday at Trump's angry press conference that he was bragging because he gave a million dollars to veterans' causes. Now that sounds impressive, and he certainly thinks it's impressive. But is
it?  When you supposedly are worth $10 billion, one million is not that big a deal. Especially when it's to help soldiers in need, you know those men and women who fought Donald's battles when he managed to get out of any kind of military service. Donny, in fact, got four student deferments followed by a medical deferment because of a bone spur in his foot.(Naturally he can't recall which foot.) He tells people he was lucky to have a high draft number, but that's a lie. So think about it. Instead of going into the service and fighting in Nam, he went to college and developed his much bragged about financial skills. That suggests to me that he owes a lot more than a million dollars to America's fighting forces for making it possible for him to concentrate on making money while they were focused on staying alive.
