Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.) tore into President Trump on the Senate floor Saturday.
[...]
Duckworth, a retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel, lost both of her legs when a rocket-propelled grenade shot down the helicopter she was piloting over Iraq in 2004.
[...]
“Does he even know that there are service members who are in harm’s way right now, watching him, looking for their commander in chief to show leadership, rather than [trying] to deflect blame?”
The Hill
Yeah, Tammy? They're not. They know him better than that.
“I spent my entire adult life looking out for the well-being, the training, the equipping of the troops for whom I was responsible,” she continued. “Sadly, this is something that the current occupant of the Oval Office does not seem to care to do — and I will not be lectured about what our military needs by a five-deferment draft dodger.”
Ouch.
“And I have a message for cadet bone spurs:"
Ouch!
" If you cared about our military, you'd stop baiting Kim Jong Un into a war that could put 85,000 American troops, and millions of innocent civilians, in danger."
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
