This explains so much about the mentality of Donald Trump, and similarly stunted human beings......
Once an entitled, meglamanical sociopath, always an entitled meglamaniacal sociopath.
from Wonkette:
We finally know why Donald Trump never cared so much for war guys who got captured: When he was in the military, he never got captured, so why should he think all that much of guys who were? Now, you might think that Donald Trump, who got a bunch of draft deferments during Vietnam, has never been in the military, simply because he never served in the U.S. armed forces in any formal capacity. But he feels like hes been in the military, because his parents sent him to military school, so shut up already.
The New York Times informs us that in interviews for an upcoming biography, Trump told author Michael DAntonio that because his parents shipped him off to a military boarding school, he always felt that [he] was in the military, and really, who would know better than Donald Trump what being in the pretend military is like? Unless maybe it was Sarah Palin, who agrees that he was a pretty impressive war hero and a POW, too. So thats one more thing shes been right about.
Mr. Trump said that his experience at the New York Military Academy, an expensive prep school where his parents had sent him to correct poor behavior, gave him more training militarily than a lot of the guys that go into the military.
Yes, well be reading that book. We also learn that Trump sat down with DAntonio for six hours of interviews for the book, but abruptly terminated his cooperation after Mr. Trump learned that Mr. DAntonio had spoken with a longtime Trump enemy which hardly narrows down the field of people that could have been. If consistency counts for anything, we at least learn that even in his adolescence, Trump was already working hard at being an asshole:
Mr. Trumps preoccupation with winning at anything and everything, big or small dominated his youth. His mentor at the New York Military Academy, Theodore Dobias, called Mr. Trump a conniver, even then.
Trump attended the military school from eighth grade through high school, starting in 1959; his parents sent him there after hed gotten into too much trouble at his previous boarding school, where, he told DAntnonio, he gave a teacher a black eye because I didnt think he knew anything about music. You dont go around disagreeing with little Donald. ................(more)
