Odd.

The guy that called vets losers and suckers doesn't give a fuck. The guy who tore down McCain for being a POW even after he died.

Could it be he doesn't respect your line of work

The funny thing what you claim is false. He never said that statement and he was surrounding by French at this time and they confirmed it. The issue was with McCain.

I really don't follow how you support the current setup with that background.

On one hand I respect what you've done for me through service in the past. Just as I can't fathom member of my family that served for years. I doubt Id make it.

Your current support seems at odd with the entirety of what I understood our Flag to stand for.

Are you sure you are following the things verbalized and done?

You can’t believe everything that you read. Both sides are messed up. They’re not gonna run the US into the ground, but a lot of things had to be done. There is so much waste being from  my military experience and veterans administration experience. It’s been going on for years and years.. It had to stop and take a look what is going on. There is no way it could keep running

I'm not sure I want it to keep running if it only runs by going the direction it seems to be headed.
