On this Veterans Weekend I think of my dad, a proud veteran of WWII. It’s one of the things he was proudest of, in his last years.

 And then there’s Capt Bonespurs, the asshole(R) who thinks vets are ‘suckers and losers’.

Trump privately made damning statements against U.S. service and veterans, such as the late Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who had been a Vietnam prisoner of war, and former President George H.W. Bush, who was shot down as a Navy pilot in World War II. During a visit to France in 2018 for the centennial anniversary of the end of World War I, Trump also reportedly called Marines who died at Belleau Wood “suckers” and fallen soldiers at Aisne-Marne American Cemetery “losers.”

Remember when the Republicans were a respectable political party? Yup, long ago…
