I just nearly broke my television over a Trump quote!

[Stonepounder]

I just head on CNN Wolf Blitzer played a clip of the Orange Shipgibbon saying "Our solers are fighting like never before."

I am not a veteran, never served in the armed services, but that asshole in the White House who claims to be our President just insulted every single veteran that ever served!! I am so angry at that comment I can barely speak! HOW DARE HE diss our veterans like that?!? My father was an Army Medic in WWII, I knew friends who died in Vietnam. But I guess they don't count because they didn't fight hard enough. I swear I've got to go do something else before my blood pressure goes through the roof and my head explodes!

I damn near threw something at the TV when I heard that.

[mercuryblues]

1. Our families fought and died

while the trumps were screwing over families to pad his pocket.

[iluvtennis]

13. Agree. I served in US Air Force. Dumpty is an asswipe. Will never understand how some vets...

supported him

[teezy]

2. I saw this air on CNN last night

and I loudly scoffed. I was disgusted. He is always unprepared and unknowledgeable. A global embarrassment for sure.

[RKP5637]

26. The world sees him as a damn incompetent sleazy fool and still can't see how the US

could have elected such an idiot.

[Percy Cholmondeley]

39. It's always worked for him

he's an artist, and his medium is bullshit, and it's been working for him since his youth. He didn't mean anything by it, I'm sure. He doesn't mean anything by anything he says. He's always just trying to make a sale, and he thinks he's good at it. You can catch him in multiple lies every day, and he thinks he bullshits his way out of them all by more lies.

[samnsara]

3. i am caregiving my 91 yr old father...a WW11 vet.....

...and blotus doesn't even have the right to say the word 'Veteran'.

[peacebuzzard]

19. All my best wishes to your father

And my best for you, I also was a caregiver. My dad was WWII and Korean also.

[sprinkleeninow]

28. You said it. He desecrates that which is worthy of honor.

All the best to you and your Dad.

My Dad saw action in the Phillipines, Navy. His ship suffered secondary fire and he found himself in the water thinking he was done for. Carried shipmates badly wounded, decapitated.

And the sheer mendacity of the buffoon in charge sets my teeth on edge and highly incenses me with the fake praises toward all our service members, past and present. Sorry excuse for a so-called piece of humanity.

Be well.

[Ilsa]

4. I'm 100% with you. How dare he insult

Every veteran of previous wars and conflicts? He just has to declare that the soldiiers serving now under his administration are better than any before. What a piece of shit.

[Blue_true]

5. That should be insulting to every veteran and their family. nt

[spanone]

10. true, but these are assholes who weren't offended when the khan family was disgraced.

a gold star family.


fuck trump

[LittleGirl]

23. +1 eom

[Cha]

30. Yeah, assholes held trump up on a fucking pedastal while

he tore down a grieving father whose son died in service to his country.

This is what those assholes voted for.. and everyone else who is responsible for the orange "pussy grabber" directly or Indirectly.

[Dem2]

6. Mr superlatives

Reminds me of a relative of mine - I generally feel bad for them because they say every experience they have is the "best ever", but they're never actually happy.

[pinboy3niner]

7. The insults just keep coming

[madokie]

8. Fuck that sob

He can kiss this old Vet's ass up one side and down the other. fuck him with a rusty railroad spike

then tar and feather his ass then ride him out of DC on a rail. Fuck him.

sorry for all the cussing, mybad

[mnhtnbb]

14. My tongue literally gets tied up when I start cussing Trump because I can't get

all the words out fast enough.

He is such a fu*king piece of $hit.

[busterbrown]

16. Nicely articulated and beautifully stated..

You couldn’t have done a better job.

[VOX]

25. Let it out! Cussing is mandatory regarding 45...

I'm just getting over a two-week lung-ripping case of bronchitis that I'm sure was caused in part by my stressing over all the shit that's been raining down on us from 45 and his pack if weasels.

I've been apologizing to my wife daily for the blue streaks I've been cussing (and there have been some doozies), all in reaction to 45's daily shit-show. So you're in good company.

But we've got to pace ourselves. Don't make yourself physically sick over this, you're needed! Take care--

[lunatica]

37. Think of it as stringing pearls together

I've always thought that a great string of imaginative expletives is like a string of pearls.

[spanone]

9. cnn called him on that this morning....

[Cha]

31. Really! What did they say about it?

Thanks, spanone

[spanone]

32. they said he was wrong. our troops were advisors!

[Ligyron]

11. I'd like to see Dump on the front line.

talk about golden showers...

[OldHippieChick]

12. Stupid question, but does he honestly think our soldiers

are fighting harder because he was elected? Really? Again, I would like some of whatever he is smoking.

[Stuart G]

15. He may think he is smart...but...

that proves he is pretty dumb...not just dumb, but very, very dumb.. I would say ...dumber than a dumb bell..!!!

[democrank]

17. What he meant to say was

Our soldiers are fighting like I never have before because I got many deferments for bone spurs even though I played football, tennis and squash.

[calimary]

18. That's just First-Class CON-talk from the First CON-man.

With a lot of "amazing's" and "incredibles" thrown in to kinda sorta fancy it all up.

[peacebuzzard]

20. I can't have a television for that very reason

I would be mad on a permanent basis

[TeamPooka]

21. Of course he believes soldiers will fight harder for him than any other leader He's a big narcissist

the biggest.

[Initech]

22. I really hope that the deplorables are pleased with themselves.

They elected a walking, talking, compulsively lying, boorish embarrassment.

[weissmam]

24. any service member that supports Drump

is an idiot

[Kablooie]

27. I'm afraid our soldiers may soon be dying like never before.

With an incompetent buffoon as commander in chief.

[Cha]

29. buttbrain can't say ANYTHING without Insulting

someone or something. he's stupid and a liar

[wryter2000]

33. Don't listen to him

Avoid him at every opportunity. Don't worry you'll miss anything important. The "news" media will fill you in on anything you need to know.

[haele]

34. Nahh. Drumpf's lackies in uni are pushing to ignore the UCMJ for "Ease of Combat Purposes".

That's been done before in recent previous Republican administrations on occasion, and it's never turned out well.


Haele

[Rhiannon12866]

35. I heard that and it gobsmacked me, too!

He sends me over the edge on a daily basis, but this was a blatant insult to every single courageous veteran and active service member throughout our history! My Dad and all my uncles served in the US Army and Navy and both of my grandfathers were WWI vets.

[lunatica]

36. May I offer some advice?

Get a pillow and keep it at your side so you can throw it at the television. I think the act of doing that will help. If you have the ability you can also jump up and down on it or punch it, choke it, or even stab it to death.

[Fatemah2774]

38. Narcissism

The orange man child is lost, and rather than show praise for their sacrifices he would rather take credit. I too am a Veteran, and I have never in my 50+ year old life have ever been embarrassed as I am on a daily and sometimes hourly basis for what passes as presidential mettle. This man has bankrupted his companies and now the biggest scam of all: lower the prestige and pride of America while making a handsome profit.


Shameless.

[lark]

40. +1,000,000,000

I started screaming at the tv when I heard the clip with him saying that this am. It's about the most stupid drivel that's ever come out of his mouth. Like the military wasn't even trying before him, but now since he's president, they are so stoked they've actually started fighting! What total BS and disrespect, it just boggles the mind. If any other president had said this, impeachment hearings would have been threatened if not actually commenced for the hatred for the military it shows. He likes war machines but hates the people that actually fight, just like all Repugs. Doesn't matter what he called himself previously, he's now been shown to be repug through and through.

[FailureToCommunicate]

41. Sigh. Times like this I'm glad my veteran dad is no longer alive to see this CIC. He'd scream

bloody murder at all the ways Trump has disgraced the military and our country. And about the unfolding Russian connections of the top administration stooges... he's certainly spinning in his grave!

[dae]

42. I couldn't believe my lying ears.
