Uncomfortable bravado

I’m not sure whether the recent military action against Iran was necessary. As citizens we’re not aware of all the intricacies of foreign policy. I do know that, as a veteran, Mr. Trump’s bravado makes me very uncomfortable.

He seems to talk extremely tough when other people’s sons and daughters are at risk. When his opportunity to serve came, and he could have demonstrated that personal toughness he now loves to convey, he bowed out with questionable deferments.

Where was Commander in Chief Bone Spurs when he had the opportunity to serve and sacrifice?
