In reply to the discussion: TRUMP: I Never Went To Vietnam, But 'I Felt That I Was In The Military' [View all]pinboy3niner
(53,339 posts)104. Your brother did combat assaults in the A Shau by Huey; Trump did party insertions by limo
I know your brother went through the hellish fighting at Ripcord, while Trump was braving those nightmarish pillow fights at his academy.
It's all pretty much the same thing, right?
And while yor brother did 2 months of Basic Training and 2 months of Advanced Infantry Training, Trump marched drill and ceremonies training on the parade field for years!
But seriously, to borrow a Vietnamese expression, Trump may be rich but he isn't worth your brother's little fingernail.
