  So ridiculous to call this stolen valor. It’s a rank he held, but before he retired they reverted it to a lower rank because he didn’t have all the coursework. So yes, he didn’t retire at that rank, so the correction is good, but he didn’t claim military experience that he didn’t have.

    He incorrectly states he’s a retired command sergeant major. He isn’t. He didn’t qualify for that rank. I wouldn’t call it stolen valor. It’s just a stupid mistake and it shouldn’t be rehashed.

    Trump shed blood for his country. Trump saw more action in one day than all of Walz lifetime. Give Trump a purple heart and his comrades who paid the ultimate price.

      “It’s amazing, I can’t even believe it. I’ve been so lucky in terms of that whole world, it is a dangerous world out there. It’s like Vietnam, sort of. It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave solider,” Trump said in the interview when Howard Stern asked how he handled making sure he wasn’t contracting STDs from the women he was sleeping with.

      The business-mogul-turned-politician elaborated on the fact in the interview, calling women’s vaginas “potential landmines” and saying “there’s some real danger there.”

      I’ve seen relatives get worse wounds at Claire’s.

      Dementia Don the Racist Rapist with 34 felonies is a draft-dodging wuss.

  I joined this community hoping for some variety to the lefts constant pissing on the right but what I got in return in the exact same thing directed at the opposite side. Where’s the reasonable moderates at that focus on ideas and events, not people?

  As someone who supports Donald “Bone Spurs” Trump, Walz is ANTI AMERICAN for CLAIMING one Rank while Retiring at the Rank BELOW!
