"On Friday afternoon, thousands of veterans who fought wars on behalf of the United States descended on the National Mall in Washington, DC, to fight something else: cuts proposed by the Trump administration.
Since his inauguration in January, President Donald Trump has moved to slash and burn the federal workforce—and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is no exception. Already, the sprawling agency serving America’s 16 million military veterans has fired 2,400 probationary workers and proposed eliminating an additional 15 percent of its workforce—about 80,000 people.">
If they voted for Trump, or abstained…sure. No vet should’ve voted for Trump, he made it very clear on numerous occasions that he has no respect for them. Idiots voting for Trump because he had an R next to his name, despite the fact that he hates your guts…sure. Have at it.
Military used to be a good career choice, particularly if you came from limited means and had even more limited options.
But they don’t take good care of the vets…and even worse, there’s still plenty of vets who were drafted and didn’t even volunteer for service.
