Veterans prefer Trump over McCain by double digits

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/07/24/shock-poll-veterans-prefer-trump-over-mccain-by-double-digits/

I know this is Breitbart but oh well. I am shocked that Trump is doing this well among veterans.

I don't prefer either one, but if I had to pick, I'd pick McCain. Trump's comments about McCain were sickeningly out of line, especially when he was too scared to put on the uniform himself.

You're dang skippy we do


Jul 25, 2015, 1:41 PM

Let me ask you all a very serious question. What has that dinosaur John McCain done for America since he took a seat of political power? What has he done to improve the care and treatment of veterans in a VA system that is all but collapsed? Now, I'm not saying that Trump can do better but at least someone is finally telling the truth. John McCain endured some suffering for America 50 something years ago, but has done nothing but revel in his "hero" status since taking a seat of office. In this world, you're only as good as your last transaction.

Our country won't go on forever, if we stay soft as we are now. There won't be any America because some foreign soldiery will invade us and take our women and breed a hardier race.

right, because if you can not get 100% of what you want, make the entire country suffer.

I will be honest.. I like one or two aspects of Obamacare... One of them being that insurance companies can no longer deny someone with a pre-existing condition...

uh, no.. Obama gave the private insurance companies a nice federal subsidy and a bigger chunk of the market.

Well, A Bill Passed or a Deal Made is only as good as the supervision that regulates that deal or bill. Inspect what you expect as the saying goes. I can talk a good game and blow smoke up someone's ####, but if I don't take action to follow up behind it then my talk is just that... Talk. I have been waiting for almost 5 years to receive treatment for "SOME" of my injuries sustained while on deployments in the Marine Corps... Oh, and to answer your question, I'm not a Yanker... Or whatever that is. I was Born in Mississippi and raised in South Carolina.

Heh, man... I appreciate your service and am sorry to hear


Jul 25, 2015, 2:45 PM

about your injuries not being addressed... However, I do think you answered your own question. The 'establishment' currently in DC doesn't give a rat's axx and most of them fought it until Bernie and McCain made it a public scene... With McCain, it's a personal thing; with Bernie, it's doing the 'right' thing.... With most of the DC establishment, it's doing the 're-electable' thing. By the way, I've had numerous family members who have served, both Special Forces and Airborne....

Not educated at CU... I'm not sure why but my Facebook keeps on displaying that because I click the like button... Unless you want to count Tailgating and Clemson Football as education then nah.. But the rest is correct..
