Why didn't Trump fight in the Vietnam War?

Most rich kids don't fight in the wars started by their rich parents. We should ALL know that by now.

He was a coward and a millionaire and was able to buy his way out of service.

He was a rich kid with bone spurs.

Coming from a wealthy family has its privileges.

Same reason Bill didn't. And millions of others.

Bone spurs. There was only ONE high school senior class that did not get academic deferrals fir being ad mitted to college. The class of 1971. MY class. Trump was in college.

He wanted to but had many, many, many reasons for staying home.

medical Turndown. And if You think you can say "that's OK I will serve anyway" you probably believe that hillary wiped her server with a cloth.

Uncle Crizzay in da Hizzay!

Bone spurs.

Why should he? Johnson and Nixon had no intention of winning it, anyway.

He's a coward.

War isn't for wimps, and especially those who end up selling out the USA to rich dictators. Maybe it's a good thing - He would've been on TuDo day and night sipping on Saigon Tea, then when sent back to the front line would've hit a golf ball & given coordinates to Charlie.

35th is Best

He's a coward

Why didn't Obama. Why didn't Clinton? As a matter of fact Jimmy Carter was the last Democrat President to even serve in. The military. Lol

Cowardice. Laziness.

The Donald

Deferral.

He was granted a deferment by his draft board. Many draft age men were given these deferments for 1 reason or another. People who weren't even born yet disparage potus as a "draft dodger" but he wasn't. That sort of accusation is just huffposting; stating something as a fact when it isn't. Trump was granted a legal and above board deferment by the draft authority in his area.

Debilitating injury and an education deferment.

MIKE L

Why didnt Hilary?

Philip H

He was working to build a better America. Some rare individuals serve better by not serving in the Military, but his "excuse" was medical.
