“So many people told me that was the most beautiful bullet dodge they had ever seen in their entire lives.”

Not actual quotes—as far as I know.

Trying to score points by chumming it up with wounded soldiers. He is so disconnected to the issue at hand he comes across as a flaming asshole - mercy, respect, and sympathy, are all outside of his wheelhouse.

trDUMP can't even play act a pResident who recognizes their devotion to America that they are willing to sacrifice limb and life to defend it and our Constitution. He is so shallow and hollow it is astounding.

If either Bill Clinton or Barrack Obama had said that?

And the corporate news media would have been egging them on. D

“Liberal media,” my @$$!

Apparently, 5 minutes of a foul smelling moron pretending he's interested in you, and a cheap, red Chinese-made gimme hat.

And the greatest self-deception of right-wing voters in 2016, 2020, and 2024 was thinking that he did.

Trump knows absolutely nothing….NOTHING…. about sacrifice.
