Mary Trump EXPOSES Her Uncle Donald's CRUEL and DISGUSTING Behavior - Against All Enemies



In an extraordinary new article in the Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg recounts a story about a severely wounded veteran performing the national anthem for Donald Trump, and how the former president then told the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, “Why do you bring people like that here? No one wants to see that, the wounded.”

Ken Harbaugh shares his own experience working with wounded vets, and talks with clinical psychologist Mary Trump about her uncle’s cruel, bullying behavior. - 10/03/2023.

Born in an Army hospital, and raised on numerous Army posts. During my childhood, I learned a LOT about discipline and respect.

My Army Dad -- if he were still here -- would refer to TFG in this way: "He wouldn't make a decent pimple on a PFC (Private First Class) butt." That's why I refer to Drumpf as Cadet BoneSpurs.

Thanks for sharing this clip! (And the thousands of others).

Donald Trump criticizes U.S. military veteran and Senator John McCain, saying, "He's not a war hero. He's a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren't captured."

How in the fuck can any veteran support Trump? The man is not fit to be an American citizen, let alone President.

Why would any veteran, active duty, retired, etc. military person give this guy the time of day, and obviously never vote for him again if you already did in the past.

for the presidency, I remember reading these two facts about trump and Mein Kamph

https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trumps-ex-wife-once-said-he-kept-a-book-of-hitlers-speeches-by-his-bed-2015-8?op=1

What this confirmed to me is that his continuing disrespect of those serving at the risk of life and limb intimidated his cowardly nature. His disrespect of John McCain, his disrespect of ALL Gold Stars families, those who serve as "suckers" and the final straw for me was his snubbing of those who died on the beaches of France on our march to topple one of his heroes

and on and on. We had plenty of warning in trump's 2016 candidacy. We know now what he really stands for given the nightmare we are still suffering through with his face plastered in our media. And our media does not say much about his ultimate aim if he wins in '24.
