Lawrence O’Donnell Slams Trump’s ‘Warrior’ Spin With A Brutal Reminder
HuffPost
The president said Wednesday at the NATO summit that he and his team “feel like warriors” for "obliterating" Iran's nuclear program after contradictory reports.
MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell hit Donald Trump with some humbling facts during Wednesday’s edition of “The Last Word” and slammed the president for touting himself as a “warrior” for bombing Iran.
“Of course, Donald Trump feels like a warrior,” said O’Donnell. “Donald Trump, who evaded military service during the Vietnam War because he claimed his foot hurt. The same foot on which he spent the rest of his life playing endless miles of golf and never limping.”
Trump has never served in the military and reportedly avoided the Vietnam War draft with a diagnosis of bone spurs in his feet. The daughter of the doctor who provided the diagnosis later said it was a favor to his landlord at the time — Trump’s father, Fred Trump.
