It was four years ago today that Trump’s comments calling fallen Marines “suckers” and “losers” came to light.
It’s a disgraceful anniversary, and a lot has happened since then.
Trump’s own former Chief of Staff John Kelly confirmed the comments, and that Trump asked at the grave of Kelly’s fallen son: “I don’t get it. What was in it for them?”
Trump refused to be seen with combat-wounded Troops as president, saying: “It doesn’t look good for me.”
Trump tried to steal an election and launched an insurrection at the Capitol when he failed, a day that ranks alongside Pearl Harbor and 9/11 in its infamy.
More recently, Trump degraded the Medal of Honor and all who earned it.
Just last week, Trump desecrated Arlington National Cemetery and his campaign assaulted a cemetery official, all for a political photo op.
But some good things have happened since then, too.
We got the PACT Act across the finish line, and a million Veterans have received treatment for toxic exposures.
We protected the VA from cuts under the Trump administration and stopped cold renewed efforts from the Republican-controlled House and far-right Senators like Trump’s own VP pick, JD Vance.
Oh yeah, and one more thing... We defeated Trump.
When VoteVets picks a fight, we win. And we’ve got Trump’s number.
Thanks,
