“Mr. Trump claimed (his medical deferment) was because of a bone spur, but when I asked for medical records, he gave me none and said there was no surgery,” Michael Cohen told members of the House Oversight Committee. “He told me not to answer the specific questions by reporters but rather offer simply the fact that he received a medical deferment.

“He finished the conversation with the following comment: ‘You think I’m stupid, I wasn’t going to Vietnam.’”

The convicted felon and Vietnam War draft dodger Donald Trump is going to spend millions of taxpayer dollars on himself to celebrate his 79th birthday on June 14th.

How? By staging a military parade through the streets of Washington DC. A blatant political stunt glorifying himself and using the military as a prop.

The Vietnam War memorial which commemorates the real American heroes, 58,000 servicemen and women who perished in this misguided war, will be closed. So that Trump can engage in his boy toy military fantasies.
