[u/atwozmom]

Not only a draft dodger, but someone who has made fun of soldiers who died, calling them losers.

[u/zxvasd → u/atwozmom]

And fired actual high ranking generals for bullshit reasons.

[u/JustFun4Uss → u/zxvasd]

For not being loyalists to him... Not to america but to him personally. Essentially anyone would would protect America from him trying to take it over when shit starts going really bad. No chance of military coup.

[u/MandibleofThunder → u/JustFun4Uss]

And also for being...

GASP

SHOCK HORROR

WOMEN AND/OR PEOPLE OF COLOR

[u/anchorftw → u/MandibleofThunder]

Trump is a person of color...that color just happens to be orange.

[u/Salt-Independent-760 → u/anchorftw]

Not much of a person tho.

[u/MandibleofThunder → u/Salt-Independent-760]

It's what happens when you feed a horse nothing but carrots; collect all of said horse's carrot shits in a 55 gallon garbage can; give said collection of shit a super long tie, tiny hands, and the vocabulary of a 2nd grader; and sell yourself as a political outsider unbeholden to special interests and the regular political machine - all the while encouraging your supporters to be more overtly hateful.

God bless America amirite?

[u/AppropriateTouching → u/JustFun4Uss]

Shit is already really bad. He has an untrained force of thugs with virtually unlimited resources disappearing people off the streets without due process who have already murdered citizens in the street in cold blood with no consequences. He has admitted to rigging the election that brought him to power and is trying to do the same with the midterms. We have lost all internatiomal faith with our previous allies. Its getting harder and harder for the average person to live. His family has already stolen 3 billion from taxpayers, and thats just what we know about. I could keep going but hopefully you get the point.

[u/Normal-Ad6528 → u/zxvasd]

I was one of those. I wasn't exactly 'fired', but my career was being ended quietly. All because back in '17, I refused to swear an 'oath of loyalty' to him. There were 24 other general officers in that same group and not a single one of us 'survived' it. Yes, he was attempting to orchestrate a coup back then.

Now, I no longer am a citizen of the US. I left the country I served for 32 years behind and I'm much happier thanks to that decision.

[u/Hardwired_lavamantis → u/Normal-Ad6528]

If true this would be one hell of an AmA

[u/Normal-Ad6528 → u/Hardwired_lavamantis]

It would, but we simply can't do that.

[u/iamalext → u/Normal-Ad6528]

I’ve got to ask but why exactly would you not be able to talk of it? If what he did was illegal, would your oath to the Constitution not compel you to testify about the Commander in Chief having attempted to initiate a coup?

[u/Normal-Ad6528 → u/iamalext]

The 'coup attempt' wasn't blatant. The events behind it would require a great deal of, well, let's call it 'insider knowledge' to see how all the pieces would come together. It's all extremely complicated. Each of us did report the incident to Congress and, as stated earlier, it came to nothing.

[u/WardensLantern → u/Normal-Ad6528]

Bit of an "aw shit here we go again" moment - but isn't this part:

swear an 'oath of loyalty' to him [...] he was attempting to orchestrate a coup

something you would normally go to prison for?

Prisons are full of people who deserve to be inside much less than the man who has only earned more wealth, power and influence with each criminal act.

[u/Normal-Ad6528 → u/WardensLantern]

and how, pray tell, do you prove this and what's worse is when nobody will fucking listen! You think that all 25 of us did NOT provide this information to Congress? I'll tell you what happened: 8 months of classified, closed door testimony that led to nothing but 25 senior officers being shown the door in one form or another. When selection for your next promotion HAS to come from the president, it's easy to get passed over. He just doesn't submit your name and that's it. Game over.

[u/WardensLantern → u/Normal-Ad6528]

Tbf my European ass was always taught that, for all its flaws and quirks, the US doesn't mess about when it comes to judicial system and the military, so stories like this really deflate that notion. And I believe those two exact branches will feel the most lasting damage after he's gone.

[u/Normal-Ad6528 → u/WardensLantern]

It'll take the US 30 years to fix their internal problems and closer to 50 to repair the damage that trump has done to the US on the international stage.

This is why I'm now a citizen of Norway!

[u/WardensLantern → u/Normal-Ad6528]

Welcome to Norway! Håper du trives her!

[u/Glossed-Lam → u/zxvasd]

I hate this one specifically because I've been an advocate for cutting high ranking officers. We have nearly 6x as many flag officers per regular sailor than we did in WW2, for example. We've been overburdened at the top levels of command ever since the post-Cold War draw down.

But doing it via blatant loyalty testing is dictator shit.

[u/Normal-Ad6528 → u/Glossed-Lam]

Not trying to start too much of an argument with you, but 6X?? The ratio of enlisted to officers is roughly 4 to 1. Also, there is a limit (by law) of how many general officers there can be total and the Navy has about 150 flag officers total. Hardly 6x the number of sailors. There is a glut of O-5's for sure, but that has always been the case. This is where literally 90% of officers end their careers. Why? Because less than 5% of eligible O-5's are selected for O-6. The 'checklist' of items you have to have completed for selection to O-6 is extremely difficult to achieve. Now, for those who DO promote to O-6, well, Colonels/Captains make up about 5% total of the entire officer corps and less than 1% of the entire military.

I retired at 32 years of active duty at O-8 and let me tell you, it was NOT an easy thing to achieve. There are only a limited number of assignments available to flag officers and if those officers do not retire or are selected for the next available rank, then that creates a 'dam' that prevents others from moving on up. Most officers retire at O-5 at 20-24 years. O-6's will retire at 30 (mandatory) if not selected for O-7. Failure to be selected for O-7-O-10 twice equals immediate retirement.

Compare senior officers O-7 through O-10 (800-900 total) to senior NCO's E-7 through E-9 (124,000) and I think you'll see that enlisted logjams are far, far, worse.

[u/scarr3g → u/atwozmom]

And even at the military school he was forced to go to, the medals on his Pic aren't his...

He borrowed them from others that actually achieved things that he didn't.

Just like the Nobel peace prize, he didn't earn, but has. And the FIFA peace prize, he didn't earn, but has. And the FIFA cup he didn't earn, but had. And the purple heart, he didn't earn, but has. Etc

Heck, I can't think of a single award, or prize, he has in his possession, or has had his picture taken with that he earned.

He didn't even get them as participation awards, because he didn't even participate.

[u/BradGunnerSGT → u/scarr3g]

Even his stupid golf trophies where he “wins” the senior tournament at his own private clubs.

[u/scarr3g → u/BradGunnerSGT]

Those fall into "bought not built" lol.

[u/Stormtighter → u/scarr3g]

How openly he just cheats on that one is pretty fucking hilarious.

People should read the yearly golf tournament champion story one.

He really is a fools fool.

[u/BigHeatCoffeeClub65 → u/Stormtighter]

Called Pele by caddies because he kicks his ball so often.

[u/Hardwired_lavamantis → u/scarr3g]

It's astonishing how cults can and do form around complete losers. Losers somehow brimming with confidence.

The cult members must be projecting something onto them in what passes for their "minds."

[u/Agent-Two-THREE → u/atwozmom]

Made fun of POWs too.

[u/ZoominAlong → u/Agent-Two-THREE]

And vets! He called them suckers. My wife served in Iraq twice. I thought she was gonna throw something when she heard that. 

[u/LowKeyNaps → u/ZoominAlong]

Vets were suckers and dead soldiers were losers.

My dad was a combat medic in Vietnam, served on the front lines. Despite all efforts, there were times he lost men in his company due to enemy action, including having his best friend die in his arms. Seeing himself and his surviving buddies labeled as suckers, and all those men lost in Nam labeled as losers (never mind all those lost before and since), Dad lost it.

He bought a sign referencing that quote, and it had been on our front lawn ever since, well back from the road, but visible. This past summer, just a few months ago, the guy that does the roadside trimming for the town made a point of destroying the sign. Didn't touch our mailbox or anyone else's signs or decorations that were far closer to the edge of the road, but he made damn sure to pull up onto my lawn to destroy that sign. Town refuses to acknowledge responsibility, like there's rampaging mowers running amok destroying signs that are not town related or something.

[u/OnceMoreAndAgain → u/Agent-Two-THREE]

He's insulted pretty much every demographic of the USA, besides his rich friends.

[u/_jump_yossarian → u/OnceMoreAndAgain]

Correction: trump has no friends.

[u/MerryTexMish → u/Agent-Two-THREE]

How can anyone who claims to support our military forget or forgive how he treated John McCain? Absolute insanity.

[u/MajorasPride → u/MerryTexMish]

When I was stationed in Yokosuka, Trump wanted the USS McCain to be kept out of sight during his visit to the base. What's crazy is that the ship wasn't hidden, but the McCain's sailors who wore their ship's ballcaps were told not to attend his speech. I just remember thinking, this has got to be the most disrespectful president ever, trying to hide one of our own ships just because he didn't like the guy it was named after.

Edit: Grammar

[u/42ElectricSundaes → u/atwozmom]

And suckers

[u/Skolloc753 → u/42ElectricSundaes]

And small potatoes ...

SYL

[u/Mangalorien → u/atwozmom]

For those that don't know, when commissioned officers in the United States military are promoted, during the first and second promotion (to 1st lieutenant and captain), the criteria is "all fully qualified". So while it's not 100% guaranteed it's pretty close, and usually around 98-99% of officers make those promotions. At all later stages (major and above) it's no longer "all fully qualified", but instead "best qualified", at a gradually decreasing percentage.

Donald Trump would be one of those few officers who would absolutely struggle to get promoted to 1st lieutenant, and with a very high degree of probability he wouldn't make captain. Every year in the military you get a written evaluation (FITREP), and in Trump's case he would almost certainly get the career ending version called "Do not promote". You only give out those for serious things like lying, falsifying official records, or failure to exercise basic personal accountability, i.e. things that Trump is widely known to do on a regular basis. It's even probable that Trump during his first command (platoon leader) would get "relieved for cause", which happens if a commander officially removes a junior officer from their position due to incompetence, toxic leadership, or severe poor judgment, i.e. things that Trump yet again does regularly.

An interesting aspect is that Trump could not currently gain a commission in any of the Armed Forces, since he has a felony conviction and would thus be immediately disqualified from becoming an officer (any active duty officer who gets a felony conviction is automatically fired). Trump is for the same reason prohibited from owning a firearm. Yet he somehow holds the nuclear codes. Make it make sense.

[u/Stormtighter → u/Mangalorien]

The guy can't read or write. His degree was paid for at a rich kids diploma mill.

One of his professors called him the dumbest student he ever had.

He could not get thru the most basic officer school.

[u/TheAsianTroll → u/Mangalorien]

Donald Trump wouldnt even make it through Officer Candidate School, even if he was still in the best shape hes ever been in.

You need to actually be smart to make it through OCS. Daddy would have to pay some friends to get Dodgin' Donny through.

[u/guyncognito420 → u/Mangalorien]

Struggle to get 1st lieutenant?? I think they would promote him so his troops would kill him

[u/Mangalorien → u/guyncognito420]

When people mention fragging officers during the Vietnam War, Donald Trump is the exact kind of person that they are talking about.

As others have already mentioned, Trump would probably not make it through officer candidate school (he would never get admitted to West Point either).

[u/viperfangs92 → u/atwozmom]

Also made fun of P.O.W.s

[u/gfregh → u/viperfangs92]

Right wing loves to say they support troops. But when this fool literally made fun of McCain, they just followed along like little sheep they are.

I mean I didn’t like McCain’s policies but Jesus, he’s a freaking legend and 💯 percent more man than I am. I would never ever make fun of someone who was in the military.

[u/jd3marco → u/atwozmom]

Dodging STDs was ‘his Vietnam’, or so he said.

[u/Pale-Measurement-532 → u/atwozmom]

And insulting Senator McCain for getting “caught”when he was a prisoner of war in Vietnam.

[u/IBenBad → u/Pale-Measurement-532]

Also, McCain refused early release (offered because his father was a high ranking admiral) on the grounds that prisoners serving longer than he (eg Everette Alvarez) be release first. Now that’s principle and guts trump could never muster in a million lifetimes. Imagine saying, no I’m staying and enduring more torture? Whereas trump gets a paper cut and he’d cry like a baby.

[u/Hovie1 → u/Pale-Measurement-532]

This orange bone spurred bastard could start over and live a thousand lives and he'd still never be as manly or as loved as McCain was.

[u/Pale-Measurement-532 → u/Hovie1]

Trump could never last a day, or even an hour in a POW camp. 🙄

[u/ExpansivePoint → u/Pale-Measurement-532]

And McCain chose to stay years, his cpators offered to release him because McCain's father was an admiral or something and he insisted he shouldn't be released before others that were there before him were freed.

Can you imagine Trump doing that?

[u/seenitreddit90s → u/atwozmom]

The 18 he's gotten killed were "small potatoes".

[u/StendhalSyndrome → u/atwozmom]

and a fatass child rapist.

[u/EddieVanzetti → u/atwozmom]

If he hadn't been able to dodge the draft, he would've gotten fragged harder than Neidermeyer

[u/quell3245 → u/atwozmom]

I take solace knowing there is an alternative universe where Trump can’t get a medical waiver and is killed on his first day in Vietnam.

[u/UncaringNonchalance → u/atwozmom]

It’s right there. It’s so easily accessible to see mounds of evidence behind him dodging service. How are these people so fucking dumb and willfully blind.

[u/Clym44]

“If not president” like that wasn’t his title for the first 70 whatever years of his life.

[u/KamakaziDemiGod → u/Clym44]

Maybe he means if he hadn't become president he would have cosplayed a general so he can pretend he has power

And then would lead a revolution against American for not choosing him

[u/mooninuranus → u/KamakaziDemiGod]

Give it a year or so.

[u/SeonaidMacSaicais → u/mooninuranus]

They’ll be rolling him out in a wheelchair, all dressed up like he’s fought in every war since WWI.

[u/dashood → u/Clym44]

And they say we're the ones with derangement syndrome.

[u/Ok_Sorbet_8153 → u/dashood]

They knew leftists would start calling them that, so they called them it first.

[u/Vyzantinist → u/Ok_Sorbet_8153]

Fun fact: Trump Derangement Syndrome was actually coined by a conservative to apply to other conservatives.

It was repurposed from Obama Derangement Syndrome, which was also coined by a conservative to apply to other conservatives.

ODS was also repurposed from Bush Derangement Syndrome, which didn't have the partisan connotations the latter two did/do.

[u/space-to-bakersfield → u/Ok_Sorbet_8153]

Exactly. That's their one trick.

So tired of their bullshit. They live in a fantasy land.

[u/NextGen-Panic → u/space-to-bakersfield]

The scientific word for which is "delusional".

Or, what we used to call colloquially, "crazy as fuck".

[u/Cenobyte_Nom-nom-nom → u/Clym44]

Seriously this is idiotic. He may act like he was only born a few years ago but he was around for 70 years before being president.

[u/farnsw0rth → u/Clym44]

Lmao that’s actually a hilarious point like if he didn’t become president at 72 he would have just gone ahead and started a career in the military and became a five star general at 73

[u/otherwisepandemonium]

I'm actually surprised they didn't include a Vietnam service ribbon, it's like they know what a draft dodging piece of shit Trump actually is.

[u/cryptotope → u/otherwisepandemonium]

I'm pretty sure that the ribbon bars (like everything else in the picture) are just AI slop.

In that sense, the picture is wholly accurate--the only decorations that Trump has earned are imaginary.

[u/Parking_Line_3704 → u/cryptotope]

Career officer here, it's all nonsense.

[u/Bendy962 → u/cryptotope]

5 star generals haven't existed since the Korean war either

[u/Rasputin_mad_monk → u/otherwisepandemonium]

Imagine being so deluded, like whoever Liam is. It’s hard to believe that’s a real person. Maybe a Russian bot.

[u/International-Mix633 → u/[deleted]]

Tbh he probably did everyone who would have potentially served with him a favour.

[u/benzaldehide]

Reporters asked him in 2016 which foot he had the bone spurs on and he didnt know.

[u/mtaw → u/benzaldehide]

IIRC he refused to answer.

[u/genreprank → u/benzaldehide]

I mean people have asked him about it and he basically alluded to the truth which is that they made it up so he wouldn't be drafted

[u/gaporkbbq]

No. If not a President, he would be a reality TV star.

[u/Gruffleson → u/gaporkbbq]

I think he would have been in jail if he hadn't been President.

[u/Embarrassed-Sun5764 → u/gaporkbbq]

Oh wait he tried that and it failed-
Casino owner it failed-

Please add to the list-

no wait he actually succeeded and got away with that

[u/TheSilverFoxwins → u/Embarrassed-Sun5764]

Dude, you’re insulting the sham wow huckster

[u/Berns429 → u/Yagsirevahs]

I’m ok with a lot of things but do not besmirch the good name of the Sham. Wow. We have to draw a line somewhere.

[u/Adorable-Pangolin-89 → u/gaporkbbq]

Wrong again! If not a president he’d be a prison inmate. In any other civilized country anyways.

[u/VLC31 → u/gaporkbbq]

If not President he would be in prison or at least should be but then again he should be in prison regardless.

[u/pan-re → u/gaporkbbq]

He’s President because IDIOTS thought reality TV was real as opposed to his long history of being a totally incompetent asshole.

[u/hispanicausinpanic → u/gaporkbbq]

Star? How about just a reality TV guy? He was never a star.

[u/History4ever]

Trump’s grandfather left Germany to avoid compulsory military service. The Trump family legacy in America is founded on cowardice.

[u/VeteranSergeant → u/History4ever]

Not just left. He tried to go back and they deported him for draft dodging.

Really just another entry in the book of grievances against the Germans. They could have kept Friedrich Drumpft and saved us a lot of headache.

[u/mp3bear → u/VeteranSergeant]

Especially if Germany would have sent Drumpft to front lines...would have saved the WORLD a lot of headache…

[u/Agadoom → u/History4ever]

Unsurprisingly, the family of far-right paedophiles are cowards. The only reason they attack children is because they think they won't fight back.

[u/kosherhalfsourpickle]

I could be wrong, but there haven't been 5 star generals since World War II.

[u/Jeansaintfire → u/kosherhalfsourpickle]

The last person promoted to 5 star was in 1950 Omar Bradley who died in 1981.

There's only been 5 ever.

[u/danlawl → u/Jeansaintfire]

Who votes for them to become one then if there is so few of them? Is it their peers?

[u/capnpetch → u/danlawl]

It’s a quirk of European ranking systems. It was created to allow them to align with the top level generals of European allies during WW2. Didn’t need them before and haven’t needed them since.

[u/the_tytan → u/capnpetch]

Is it because the highest rank (at least in Britain) was Field Marshal?

[u/Many-Salt-4321 → u/the_tytan]

That's right. The US system top rank "General" was 4 star. UK (and other EU systems) had field marshal that outranked Generals. So the US added a 5 star "General of the Army" in 1944 to solve any issues with command hierarchy.

There is another rank "General of the Armies" which was created post-WW1 bestowed on Pershing for his service. They also posthumously promoted Grant in 2024 and George Washington in 1976 with the caveat that Washington's rank has "precedence over all other grades of the Army, past or present." This doesn't have any specific star insignia IIRC.

[u/UnrealCanine → u/danlawl]

The US can only promote to a 5-star during wartime, and hasn't declared war since WWII. Omar Bradley is an exception because when he was made Chairman of the Joint Cheifs of Staff, Douglas MacArthur would have been his subordinate and outranked him

[u/arwinda → u/UnrealCanine]

But ... the US is at war with wokeness! That must count for something, least a 5 star Trump general! /s

[u/ZoominAlong → u/danlawl]

Its not a vote the way we vote for representatives. In the military, you earn it, kind of like a promotion at your job. General is also a rank during active enlistment, and specifically four star generals are only allowed to be 4 star during active enlistment ,  as it's attached to your office.

You can retire with the rank of General,  but apparently not 4 stars. 

[u/Cultural-Treacle-680 → u/ZoominAlong]

They can have their 4 star duty certified for retirement or something but it isn’t guaranteed.

[u/ZoominAlong → u/kosherhalfsourpickle]

You're not wrong.  Eisenhower was our last 5 star and he was an admiral if I remember correctly (if you're a WWII military buff, feel free to correct this if I got it wrong.)

[u/ShutYourButt420 → u/ZoominAlong]

No he was a general

[u/Cultural-Treacle-680 → u/ZoominAlong]

Nimitz, Halsey, King and Leahy were the only 4 WWII five star admirals.

[u/cryptotope]

Given that the ribbons on the ribbon rack appear to be AI slop rather than real medals, and the shoulder boards don't match the usual U.S. pattern (with five stars in a pentagonal pattern, not a straight line)--yeah, this seems like a pretty accurate representation.

Trump is all about sloppy make-believe and stolen valor. Donald Trump would definitely be a five-star general...for Halloween.

[u/frontfrontdowndown → u/cryptotope]

These people can’t even do stolen valor right

[u/TheAsianTroll → u/cryptotope]

5 stars also dont exist outside of official wartime so theyre saying Trump is the guy who only exists for the US to be at war with someone.

[u/pchlster → u/cryptotope]

I was wondering if someone could read the ribbons. Any of them real?

[u/Biscuits4u2]

He's a draft dodger who has expressed utter disdain for servicemen and women. How dumb are these people?

[u/CMBmedic → u/Biscuits4u2]

Really dumb. Id love to see him take the asvab. He should do well since hes stated his iq is so high.

[u/WedSquib → u/Biscuits4u2]

Pretty fucking dumb, my father in law did 31 years in the military and still voted for him 3 times

[u/scalyblue → u/Biscuits4u2]

Dumb enough to prompt an ai that makes a hat worn by his hair and not him

[u/americansherlock201]

MAGA is so delusional. They truly have convinced themselves that Trump is anything other than what he is.

His real history is known. His real body is known. His real thoughts are known. And they will do anything they can do deny reality to make Trump into the fantasy strongman they crave. They can’t accept that he’s a fat lying coward

[u/OstrichGrouchy7749 → u/americansherlock201]

It honestly makes no sense. I started being president when he was like what 68? So he had time to be a 5 star general. 

He dodged the draft. 

I don’t think you can enlist at 68

[u/Stillwater-Scorp1381]

The five time draft dodger who called fallen military members “suckers and losers” would never. His base are a strange lot.

[u/Master_Interest_1544]

Stolen valor.

[u/TheNr1AgentOfChaos → u/Master_Interest_1544]

This! All the time. You can't even have him in the kitchen cause he would shit his pants and in your soup

[u/Remy-Raven-890]

You know, I don't know the political inner workings of the military (even counting my 4 years serving in the Navy), but I'm pretty damn sure you can't just buy your way to any 5 star rank

[u/Smile_Space → u/Remy-Raven-890]

5 stars only exists in war time. The last time we were officially at war was World War II. So, there haven't been any 5 star generals since around the time Trump was born.

[u/Money-Banana-8674 → u/Remy-Raven-890]

There hasn't been a 5 star since Bradley. The idea that Trump would have any of what it takes to even pass officer training school is crazy.

[u/sixaout1982]

The guy who's buying diesel from the Russians, that they're buying from Iran in exchange for missiles to shoot at Americans with might not be the tactical genius they think he is

[u/gdabull → u/sixaout1982]

You forgot switching off Starlink on Ukraine

[u/sixaout1982 → u/gdabull]

That wasn't being stupid, that was being evil, which I feel is quite different

[u/ChipRockets]

Wasn't he like 70 when he first became president? Why didn't he become a 5-star before then? Or did OP think he was going to start down the road to becoming a military general after his 70th birthday?

[u/ryansgt]

Best question... So why wasn't he? If the premise is that if he hadn't been president he would be a 5 star general. He didn't become president until he was 70. He wasn't in the military at all. So what was the expectation, that if he was to lose the presidential election, he would have joined the military for the first time at 70 and immediately become the highest rank you can get?

I know this is a magat but it is always shocking to see what their fevered brains will come up with.

In no world does this happen. It's harder to do this than to become president and would take a lifetime of actual work.

[u/mattzombiedog]

Isn’t Stolen Valor a felony?

[u/kakapoopoopeepeeshir]

The fantasy world these people live in is astounding. Like what do you mean if not president he’d be a 5 star? He quite literally should have been in the military and dodged the draft thanks to his daddy. In fact his daddy probably could have paid his way into an officer academy but he’s still too much of a pussy to serve in the military. I can’t fucking stand these people

5 time draft dodger. Zero Trumps have served in the military. He has 5 kids and not one has served. The Trumps exploit the country, they don’t serve it

[u/mollis_est]

What in the stolen valor?

[u/Own-Opinion-2494]

Is that a Russian uniform

[u/Quick-Surprise-9387]

Colonel Coward

Twitter account of Liam is based in South Asia. Another Russian BOT

[u/ChefAsstastic]

Wtf is Liam and why do we give 2 fucks about his posts?

[u/gdghhfdffrf → u/ChefAsstastic]

the account is anonymous, opened in april, behavioral indicators point strongly toward it being a high-volume, automated engagement bot farm that triggers enough people to go viral, as with this post. i don't know why people care, but they do.

[u/Present-Arm-6023]

Wtf

[u/SuccessfulWar3830]

Trump dodged the draft for the vietnam war. That is a good thing. You can get him on shit hes actually done. Such as rape children

[u/Der_E]

[u/Ted_Hitchcox]

Putin would absolutely make him a general.

[u/rhondawillnot]

How could any veteran vote for that POS?

[u/JeanEBH]

If not a president, he’d be a victim of friendly fire.

[u/CallMeMrPeaches]

I don't know if my eyes are just out of practice, but strangely, this doesn't look like AI to me?

It looks like a bad photoshop job, which is a rare medium nowadays

[u/guysmileytom]

Stolen valor?

[u/Prestigious-Pick-366]

I will never fathom why they think this fat coward is tough or physically fit.

[u/Sweet-Palpitation473]

The unearned glazing that pedophile receives will always stupefy me. Its like people had a spell cast on them or something

[u/PhillyRush]

[u/vegasman31]

Impersonating a veteran is a criminal act!

[u/Longjumping-Debt7480]

Wait, is that the wrong uniform? Shouldn’t be Ruskie green??

[u/Gumbercules81]

Kind of sad they use ai to conjure up what he is in their eyes, when in reality he's just a scummy nepo baby whose family made money off brothels and ripping people off

[u/AgenticGuillotine]

Mental illness.

[u/ColbyAndrew]

They’re so far past Stolen Valor, legit shitting on it now

[u/jankyt]

He has made fun of soldiers who died or were captured while demonstrating 0 bravery or valor ever

[u/Ras-haad]

even without the draft dodging, he had every opportunity to actually BE in the military before becoming President. He was like 70. Were they just about to start making Civilians 5-Star Generals?

[u/ProofPerspective8020]

Or, dishonorably discharged

[u/GrumpyOldDad65]

Trump is a f***king idiot treasonous POS.

[u/Etyczny]

How the fuck are they even coming up with this shit, this pdf file would kill a child to not serve

[u/DriftlessDairy]

[u/NoAlternative2913]

Stolen valor, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

[u/Unfair_Special_8017]

How can any military person support this goon?

[u/kon---]

A five-star general would not have decided to go to Iran and shit the bed over and over and over again until there was so much shit the way out of it all was obscured, buried under the pile.

[u/allhailme5]

I loved his work in The Village People.

[u/anchorftw]

In other words, Hegseth would've had him fired him by now.

[u/tiny_chaotic_evil]

a 5-star Draft Dodger!

nobody dodges the draft better than Trump

[u/amscraylane]

5 star generals were given that rank for extraordinary battle time leadership. None of those men named anything after themselves.

Eisenhower had more class in his ingrown toenail than Trump’s whole existence and his descendants

[u/Morgannin09]

Guy bombed Iran and expected them to collapse overnight. It's been like six months and he's taken no new action since because he has no clue how to finish what he's started and wishes it would go away.

World class general right there.

[u/Ocean_Side_1961]

[u/bgolbov]

One can acquire a presidency through popular votes by idiots, hacked voting machines, and money. One can’t do that for officer ranks in the US military.

[u/PsychologicalLog4179]

[u/Itburns12345]

How? His dad couldnt have left him a generalship nor could elon + fox etc

[u/strubucker]

Is there a star for draft dodging?

[u/ytown]

He’s a serial rapist of women and children

[u/stargazer4272]

Would not pass bootcsmp... Most would not so it takes a special person to be military.. he is not.special.

[u/ObviouslyRealPerson]

General Draft Dodging Bone Spurs Sucker

[u/charlotteREguru]

Stolen valor? Yes, I remember hearing that somewhere.

[u/JokesNShit]

The level of commitment these dickfaces are to sheer stupidity is impressive.

[u/kw43v3r]

Looks like a Russian general - even if the uniform is fake US - he's still reporting to Putin.

[u/Metalhed69]

He can’t walk down stairs, they think he’d be Airborne?

[u/trexmom19]

If he’d actually served in the armed forces I’d wager he’d be a victim of friendly fire from his own platoon.

[u/i_hate_this_part_85]

So far removed from reality he doesn’t even know what a five star rank looks like. Nor the lackey who thinks they’re fondling him when creating shit like this.

[u/Evening-Artichoke750]

This is absolutely disgusting.

[u/Raise-Emotional]

5 generations of Drumph's and not a single one has served in the military

[u/DamnedGladToMeetYou]

Liam's a twat.

[u/VeteranSergeant]

We really need to have more empathy for Trump. His promising three sport collegiate athletic career and military aspirations were cut tragically short by sudden-onset bone spurs.

[u/M0rl0ck68]

5 Star Pedophile.

[u/Tooz75]

They’ve really turned into North Korea

[u/Memitim]

Starting wars in violation of the Constitution of the United States and continuously lying about it for months is not actually the path to promotion in the military, no matter how much conservatives might want to romanticize betrayal of the fundamental laws of America.

[u/jooes]

He became president at 70 years old. Most people are retired by 70. Plenty of people are dead by 70. 

We don't have to wonder what he would've done if he wasn't president. We saw it, for 70 years!  He'd rape women and run his businesses into the ground, that's what he do. 

[u/Shiftymennoknight]

Just some casual stolen valor

[u/ripyourlungsdave]

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past" -Sartre

He's speaking to anti-Semitism specifically, but it kind of works for all fascists and all fascist arguments.
