COWARD DONALD TRUMP (DISGRACEFUL!) DODGED THE VIETNAM DRAFT BECAUSE HIS "FOOT" HAD A BOO-BOO! BUT NOW HE WANTS TO "GO TO WAR" WITH CHICAGO. YOUR FAVORITE WRITER (JEFF TIEDRICH!) EXPLAINS THIS IN A VERY POWERFUL POST, USING WORDS THAT NO ONE'S EVER SEEN BEFORE. READ IT HERE: bit.ly/485u7Qd
oh look, it’s some AI slop of Donny tarted up as Colonel Kilgore from Apocalypse Now, declaring war on Chicago. just a perfectly normal president doing perfectly normal stuff, right?

this nightmare fuel is so many things, none of them good.

first of all, it’s an insult to actual veterans.

Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth was an Army helicopter pilot who left both her legs in Iraq.

now let’s compare that to Donny’s stellar record of service. when asked by his government to defend his country, Donny got his tyrant Klansman father to find a quack doctor to gin up a bullshit note about imaginary bone spurs. ‘I’m sorry, Donny can’t go to war. he has a boo-boo on his foot.’

so yes, take off that fucking Calvary hat, you cosplaying coward.

but it’s more than disrespectful. it’s unhinged. it’s dangerous. it’s fascistic. what kind of president posts images of attack helicopters and fiery explosions over an American city, and gloats about ‘going to war’ against his own people? it’s insane.

it’s un-American.

We have to talk about this also as an insult to the National Guard, who are being used as political props by the President and governors. They signed up to serve their country and their communities, and are now being turned into playthings of a political operation. It’s a slap in the face.

Democrats have officially unveiled a new California congressional map that would allow them to capture five more House seats — likely wiping out the gains Republicans hope to make in Texas. Gov. Newsom: "We anticipate these maps will completely neuter and neutralize what is happening in Texas."
