    Actually I do support Trump. I have yet to hide such a fact and have stated such multiple times over several threads. Oh wait...you didn't know that? Why didn't you do your homework!?!??! How DARE YOU! HOW CAN YOU BE SO IGNORANT!!!?!?

    Thanks for proving my point in this thread though. ;) LOL

    I already knew you were a Trumpservative. Your post proved my meme to be correct. LOL

    How could he not know the political leanings of the great Kal'Stang? What a foolish fool.

    All Trump has to do is wake up and you people hate his guts for waking up.

    Vindman has a job that on the job he is in a regular business suit. But let's not go so far as to make him a major hero. He is part of trying to get rid of Trump.

    If you served under the Clinton's you might have been asked to serve in uniform waiting tables at a White House dinner early in the Clinton administration. And if you think this didn't happen ask around.

    Look, Even as CIC, running the military, Trump does not put on the uniform of a General of maybe 6 stars. Would you like him in a military uniform? Well it was explained that Vindman wears a suit on his job. And there is nothing wrong with him wearing his uniform, I do not believe he is forced to by the Army.

    LTC Vindman has earned the right to wear his uniform anytime and any place he so desires. You don't also reach the rank of LTC by being inept.

    I did. And I would have been honored to be asked to "wait tables" at an official White House function.

    Thought it was evident but perhaps not? But I was being sarcastic. Hence the words being capitalized etc etc. I was parodying what this whole thread was about.

    Correction. Trump supporter. Not "Trumpservative".

    And you're meme is of course not correct. As I can prove. Go ahead, and ask me about any of my political positions on things like SSM, abortion, UHC etc etc. Go ahead. ;)

    I never questioned his qualities, but I honestly don't know if he is required or if he has the option to not dress in uniform..

    I though the MEME was a little insulting, I was under the impression group encompassing insults were a no-no now?

    How about actually caring about the job of being POTUS? That would be a refreshing start.

    I'm sure he is simply crushed and absolutely devastated...

    well it looks like Vindeman was not good at his job and not well respected by his peers.

    I highly doubt it. I just don't choose to debate anyone who is as inept, blinded, and woefully ignorant, as a flat earth believer must be, in order to believe what they believe, despite all evidence to the contrary.

    He has golfed more than any other president in US history and has tweeted close to 20,000 times during his presidency.
    Not to mention the reports that he works less than five hours a day.

    He has the time.

    How do you rank yourself as a forum poster?

    PS, I rank Trump #1 due to the wonderful job he is doing.

    Trump easily holds the record for most Golf Courses owned by a sitting president.

    Vindman revealed a secret to me today. He corrected a question by saying he was still a jr officer in his own opinion.

    Actually the way it works is Captain is the last sort of beginning rank. Major is next as a Field Officer. This means he commands many more than a Captain commands. A Captain can command perhaps 300 men. A Major can handle more. But a Lt. Col can command maybe 1800 men. But he still has not become a Col. The Col is next to a 1 star General.

    Not much at all. And if I were Trump, before I opened my mouth, I'd check.

    Which doesn’t have anything to do with what I posted or the thread.
    Did you have a point?

    Watching the Vindman testimony all I can say is he really Bitch slapped the Republicans who would try to demean, belittle or discredit him. Other witnesses should take note.
