From Armed Forces spouse Mary Lopez on YouTube: "I am furious at JD Vance"

I am furious at JD Vance.

As the spouse of a 20 yr Army and Air Force retiree with active and reserve duty that never served (thankfully) in a combat zone I can assure you Walz and his family sacrificed way more over the 24 years he served with the Army Guard than Corporal Vance ever did in his air conditioned press office wherever he served.

How dare a corporal w 4 years condemn the service of a command master sergeant who served 24 years and had severe hearing loss because of it, and didn’t have to serve any after 20 if he wanted retirement benefits. On top of it he was running for congress and won without billionaire Silicon Valley backers like Vance got.

Walz also helped numerous veterans with his work for 12 years on veterans committees in congress. Both Trump and Vance are absolutely disgraceful to military members, retirees, gold star families, military spouses and especially disabled vets.
