The Frankish Reich Posted August 21 Author Share Posted August 21 Just now, Scraps said: Obviously yes. Same here. He talks about how he was such a great baseball player in high school, a natural athlete, never mentions any injuries. He talks for years and years about how a high draft lottery number kept him out of Vietnam. Then the NYT (mainstream media, doing actual reporting) goes digging, finds his Selective Service record. Refutes Trump's story; finds that he was exempted based on a medical condition (bone spurs). Does some more digging: bone spurs "diagnosed" by a podiatrist working out of a dump of an office in Queens - a tenant of Fred Trump, Donald's father. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/26/us/politics/trump-vietnam-draft-exemption.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Donald told people for years after the fact that he was lucky with his lottery number, not that he had any kind of medical exemption. And weirdly never mentioned bone spurs bothering him. Not to this day. Didn't even bother to have Dr. Ronny mention them in his health report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The podiatrist's family claims that he gave that diagnosis as a favor to Fred Trump. If there was ever a problem in the building, the podiatrist would call Fred Trump and the problem would be fixed quickly. Donald Trump can not remember what foot the bone spurs were in. Donald Trump says the bone spurs went away on their own but looking information up on the Cleveland Clinic, it says bone spurs are permanent and can only be removed by surgery. Why oh why don't people simply believe Donald Trump, adjudicated fraudster? Edited August 21 by Scraps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As to why he didn't mention his ailment I have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Trump received 4 deferments because of college and Biden received 5. After those, both were eventually disqualified from service for medical reasons: bone spurs for Trump and asthma for Biden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean realistically why would they even know about this. A diagnosis that was made over 60 years ago? Does that seem a little off to you? All of a sudden the "family" remembers this single diagnosis? Have they been asked about other patients and what the diagnosis for them were? It's crazy I tell ya, crazy.

If a doctor does a favor for some rich dude with the expectation of favors in return that could help his business, I could see him mentioning that to his family back around the 1968 timeframe.

Joe Ferguson forever Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Bone spurs are frequently asymptomatic especially in the young. They’re often just an incidental finding on X-ray. If they were symptomatic as a young man, they would inevitably worsen with age and obesity. I don’t see a limp… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably was. What I am saying is that neither of them wanted to go to Vietnam and used every avenue possible to avoid it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ferguson forever Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 (edited) Just my opinion but the R's don't need another RFK Jr. Free falling “And there hasn’t been a single investigation or a single firing. I don’t know. I don’t, look, sometimes mistakes happen. That’s just the nature of government, the nature of military service. But to have those 13 Americans lose their lives and not fire a single person is disgraceful. Kamala Harris is disgraceful. We’re going to talk about a story out of those 13 brave, innocent Americans who lost their lives. It’s that Kamala Harris is so asleep at the wheel that she won’t even do an investigation into what happened. And she wants to yell at Donald Trump because he showed up. She can. She can go to hell!” concluded the Ohio senator. Edited August 29 by Joe Ferguson forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
