Some more Trump hypocrisy
Play
Without going into details, US Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, who deserted his troops in Afghanistan, was just dishonourably discharged, fined and reduced in rank. But the military court ruled he would not have to go to jail.
Yet, during the presidential campaign Donald Trump said Bergdahl should be executed. What kind of a fascist thug would call for the execution of a man who hadn’t even had his day in court yet? And as it turned out the military decided that Bergdahl didn’t even deserve to be in jail.
Incidentally, our great patriot Donald Trump had five deferments during the Vietnam War and has no business passing judgement on Bergdahl … who at least volunteered to serve his country.
