JOHN —

Let us remind you, though at this point you already know.

Donald Trump never served. Never wore the uniform. Matter of fact, he did everything he could to avoid serving. Dodged the draft multiple times, a real Fortunate Son. Even called dodging STDs in the 80s his personal Vietnam. That matters today, and here’s why:

World War Two was the deadliest war in human history. Nearly 100 million people were killed, civilian and military. War is hell, and after World War Two people started to recognize that war should only be waged as a last resort.

American leaders, both civilian and military, named the Department of War the Department of Defense because they recognized the truth — war is hell. Defense, not war, should be our priority.

But Trump’s an idiot, a coward with soft hands and a silver spoon. Only somebody who dodged the draft five times and let somebody else go in his place would want to command the Department of War.

It might sound insignificant with everything else happening, but this kind of thing is still important. It’s about how this nation perceives itself and is perceived by the world. Project strength, prioritize peace, and resort to war when you have no other option.

As long as we have breath in our lungs, VoteVets is going to fight this. Changing the name of the Department of Defense requires an act of Congress, and we’ll fight like hell to make sure that act never passes.

JOHN, we need your help to rally our allies, mobilize Veterans around the country, and stop this.
