3. I am sure you are referring to Trump's comment

"I wouldn't want Ryan in my foxhole" or something to that effect. It is a common saying that has evolved to have much larger than the military meaning. It means "I wouldn't want to to depend on that guy to protect my life".

It is much more often used by saying "He is the kind of guy that I would want in my foxhole".

4. They still do it...

But they have called them "fighting holes" for a long time now (30+ years)

7. You're right Adrahil...

...we called them "fighting holes" in Vietnam.

5. Trump wouldn't know a foxhole if he fell into one. But I have a theory.

Considering the crowd he takes advice from, more likely than not he'd think it was a Sasquash footprint.

6. I knew there would people on here with knowledge

Thank you. The disrespect for McCain as a military man is pretty damn arrogant.
