Which is more than captain bonespurs can say.

He made some statements about having served in the Vietnam era, which is accurate. I’ll leave it to you as to how deliberate that was in terms of an effort to mislead people. He’s a politician.

To compare what he did to what that scumbag Santos did is utterly ridiculous.
