In case you missed it, Trump has once again mocked John McCain for not raising his hand all the way when he voted against eliminating Obamacare. Of course this was because of an injury sustained in Vietnam. He was unable to lift his arm above his head due to an injury from an aircraft crash. (Read Key Moments In John McCain’s Life.”)

You can read the articles about Trump doing this here:

No one Trump feels is his enemy is protected from being mocked for having a disability or infirmity from the then unknown reporter Serge Kovaleski (image below) to President Biden for an occassional mild stutter.

Lets we forget the time when “cadet bone spurs” was a popular term to describe Trump.

Here’s a sample article: Duckworth calls out ‘Cadet Bone Spurs’ after Trump’s ‘treasonous’ remark.

Excerpt:

An Illinois Democrat who was seriously wounded in Iraq derisively referred to President Donald Trump’s draft deferments after Trump called Democrats “treasonous” for not clapping during his State of the Union speech.

“We don’t live in a dictatorship or a monarchy. I swore an oath—in the military and in the Senate—to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, not to mindlessly cater to the whims of Cadet Bone Spurs and clap when he demands I clap,” Sen. Tammy Duckworth tweeted Monday evening.

Duckworth, an Army veteran who lost her legs while serving in Iraq, appeared to be referencing Trump’s draft deferments. Trump received five draft deferments throughout the Vietnam War, and on one occasion, Trump received a deferment because of bone spurs. 

On Monday, Trump called out Democrats’ behavior at his speech last week.

“They were like death and un-American. Un-American. Somebody said, ‘Treasonous.’ I mean, yeah, I guess, why not,” Trump said, adding, “Can we call that treason? Why not.”

Trump’s cult want to see him as a superhero. I know a non-combat veteran who blindly supports him because they say he’s “so strong” without considering all the disparaging things Trump has said about Gold Star families and POWS and credible reports that he called fallen soldiers suckers and losers.

There are numerous reasons not to post on X/Twitter but there is a reason to post there. One is to promote moribund hashtags. There was a a time when #CadetBoneSpurs was a trending hashtag. If enough people post there with this hashtag it may trend again (see search for cadetbonespurs hashtag posts here).
