2nd hand account information, no evidence, no witnesses....sounds like Democrat propaganda...________________No doubt, the Media and all Democrats are aware that Don Trump got a draft deferment for having bone spurs in his foot. If there is anyone left on the planet who the New York Media hasn't gotten to on this factoid--wait a while, they'll get back to it soon enough.
But, does anyone at all know about Sniffin Joe Biden's Military Record? Shouldn't the Media cover it as completely as they have covered Don Trump's bone spurs?
Of course they should. But, they won't and here is why.
An obviously healthy and athletic Joe Biden got a deferment for Asthma in the year of some of the toughest fighting in Viet Nam!
_________Quoting:
"He was 6 feet tall and had an athlete’s build. He played football in high school and was active in sports throughout college. He spent one summer as a lifeguard at a local pool.
But after he graduated college in the spring of 1968 and became eligible for the draft and —possibly — combat duty in Vietnam, he received a diagnosis that let him avoid military service.
No, not bone spurs. Asthma.
And his name was Joe Biden."

"There’s no denying that, by all appearances, the Joe Biden of 1968 was the picture of health. During his time at Archmere Academy, Biden excelled at sports. And while he once falsely claimed he played for the University of Delaware football team, he considered playing on the team (he chose to focus on his double-major in history and political science instead, he says) and he was active in intramural sports.
As the Associated Press noted in 2008, “Promises to Keep,” Biden’s best-selling memoir, “never mentions his asthma, recounting an active childhood, work as a lifeguard and football exploits in high school.”

Bolsheviks: Try not to be Hypocrites on this one.
Yeah, deferments during Vietnam were common for people of means. No surprise and nothing to get excited about...on either side.
Where I have an issue in Trump getting his deferment is his badmouthing the military and its soldiers over the course of his adult life.
But you would think that as CIC, he could at least keep his trap shut and show some support for the people who serve this country.
Here's the problem.
Claims against Trump are made by Anonymous sources, who say they are anonymous because they are afraid they will get mean tweets if they had the guts to put their name behind what they are claiming Trump said in France two years ago. They also said weather had nothing to do with the decision not to go to the second cemetary.
Yet, Military records made contemporaneously show that it did!
And, 10 people who gave their names have come forward and said all this is BULLSHIT.
That's not counting John bolton who was there, with the President all that day....now admits to hating him...and HE ALSO SAYS ITS BULLSHIT!
Yet you accept it as established fact---establishing that you are a blind partisan and a moron.
Try to absorb this.
"MISLEADING TACTIC is now driving the supremely dumb but all-consuming news cycle centered on whether President Trump, as first reported by the Atlantic’s editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg, made disparaging comments about The Troops. Goldberg claims that “four people with firsthand knowledge of the discussion that day” — whom the magazine refuses to name because they fear “angry tweets” — told him that Trump made these comments. Trump, as well as former aides who were present that day (including Sarah Huckabee Sanders and John Bolton), deny that the report is accurate. "
Journalism's New Propaganda Tool: Using "Confirmed" to Mean Its Opposite
Outlets claiming to have “confirmed” Jeffrey Goldberg’s story about Trump’s troops comments are again abusing that vital term.theintercept.com
Backed up and corroborated by multiple outlets....and this is not the first time this has surfaced.
Your best bet here is to just own it and move on. No good will come from Trump supporters dwelling on this.
