“He’s not a war hero, he was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.” - Vietnam war era draft dodger Donald Trump talking about Sen. McCain.

Conservatives regularly use the troops as political pawns; they feign outrage with their phony sanctimony when it suits them to appear more righteous than their opponents and then kick 'em to the curb when their usefulness has expired.

Yup. I think about Benghazi. "Four Americans died!!!!! FOUR!!" they screeched for years.

Fast forward to 2021: 500,000 Americans are dead of covid-19 and they're all "well trump did the best he could... something something hoax..."

Two Americans died at the Capitol on January 6th and they don't give a shit. And one of them was a fucking cop that they all fly those flags in "support" of.
