Whiny Republican Donald Trump Awarded a Purple Heart..

such a heartwarming story.. glad to see him and his courage and sacrifice be rewarded after such a vicious attack from the filthy brown muslims whose filthy brown muslim son was killed in Iraq.

You are starting a lot of threads about Trump lately.

He did develop a case of bone spurs in a heel that got him a 1Y classification that became 4F.

The Purple Heart winner who gave his award to Trump is a chump. But you can't fix stupid.

He actually asked the guy, "is it real, or a duplicate?".

WTF man.

He did take quite a beating over the weekend.

The fact some Purple Heart winner thinks Trump deserves one is sorry.

The fact Trump accepted and said he "always wanted one" is appalling and is another example of his shallow depth of character.  
Trump really believes he is deserving although he never served a day.

lol, who gives a shit. It's a fucking cookie for being sent to kill people to grow some rich guy's bank account.

You just can't.

Period.

And then say "is it real?" To the guy who won it.

He's never been told no by the people around him or they've never been able to tell him something he doesn't want to hear.

Disgusting.

That's it? No hello? You scared the living shit out of us. Fuck you for disappearing line that.

I agree. I smell it being staged.

In any event, if he's willing to give it to a guy like Donald Trump... how much is that symbolic reward really worth to him anyways? I get giving it to a guy like McCain or even Obama, Bush Jr. or Billy C... but it's literally just some billionaire contender who hasn't even won the race he's the decoy in anyways.

hahahaha, the balls on this guy. What a mark. Probably gets taken by every guy doing con work wherever this guy lives.

I agree that it seemed staged - and probably was. I guess someone in the Trump camp realized you can't demonize Gold Star families and fallen American heroes..

This is politics, Bobby Sak... you can do whatever the fuck you want.

You can implement departments that exist to this day will kidnap and enslave you for being in possession of a plant. That's how fucked up the game is. Nothing's changed. This is how it's worked for thousands of years and will continue to exist for another thousand. There's no rules, Bobby... fuggeddaboutit.

And I apologize for all the cursing... I've already watched Goodfellas and Donnie Brasco this morning (and about to watch Casino when this is over) so I think my subconscious feels like it's back in Brooklyn at a bodega listening to goombas talk shop.

I agree that it's politics - it's just that some people can pull it off better than others. When Trump shows such hatred and contempt for fallen heroes, their family, and America in general, there really isn't any way to turn back after that.

Out of curiosity. What did the young gentleman do that earned him the 'hero' moniker? I'm not familiar with the military's medal system so I don't know what's required to have accomplished receiving it.

I'll get a lot of cold stares I just am just careful with that word because just signing up to become a mercenary and it not working out the way you'd hope doesn't seem like it'd qualify. In my opinion. And I'm the guy that still shakes guys' hands at the airport who are in uniform, thanking them for their service, because I do recognize their necessity to the stability of our way of life.....(which is becoming more fucked and fucked by the day it seems).

That sucks. Poor parents, man....

exactly.

I mean, if you wanna debate the politics or war, etc - that's one thing.

But to attack the parents.. some things are off limits. And even most Republican see that. Trump just has no empathy and is filled with contempt for people unlike him. Most of us have known it all along, but it's really come to the forefront recently.

Most definitely.

I think I saw someone post a video on Facebook of a similar situation between a family of a passed soldier from Iraq just as mad at Bush Jr and even Bush Jr handled it with class and respect and still gave his point of view (it's a shitty one but like you said, another debate) without making it worse.

Brings up an interesting point. Do we want our president to be empathetic? I mean, I'm going by mainstream media so it's all probably fake anyways (like the moon landing but we can discuss that another time), but I saw a statistic that Obama has used more drone strikes that lead to civilian deaths than any other president since this war began. Maybe we need an OG like that? I mean, Obama still can play the fiddle when the cameras are on, so it's not like he's revealing too much of that reptilian skin... but maybe we want a Trump in office because of the way this situation has ended up? What say you?

(I'll probably be switching to Chicagoan since Casino is on, in case you were interested)

I tell you one thing... Hillary ain't no lay down sally, either. She'd have no problem blasting someone's world to Allah and back, no problem.

I think one thing is for sure... those of us with stocks in private military contractor stocks aren't going broke any time soon.
