This pick was a gift. He was her worst possible choice. She doubled down on liberalism

I'd say that's bullshite....

It's like me trying to say I had cancer when in fact I had high grade dysplasia which was going to be cancer... it was severe enough they had to remove my entire colon and the medicine I was on crossed over enough my hair fell out and my Thyroid was ruined...

I still don't try to say I had cancer. That'd be a slap in the face imo to people who actually had it and beat it despite the diagnosis and medicines and ultimately the surgical solution all were much the same.

I rate this claim of combat veteran true and all you simpleton Republicans will be laughing in November when these two moderates take the White House.


Hi, combat veteran here. Being in the military during a war does NOT make you a combat veteran. Being in the combat zone makes you a combat veteran.

I served in the Army but was never deployed during Desert Shield / Storm and their is no way in hell I am claiming combat Veteran. It is a disservice and disrespect to real combat veterans.

Walz is a “combat adjacent” veteran.

Only people who served can criticize.

Kind of funny seeing some of these keyboard warriors who have never been in the military talking shite.

So a child who lost their parent in combat can’t comment about a guy being falsely proclaimed a combat vet? What about a widow?

Walz "retired" in 2005 to avoid being deployed to Iraq.

JD Vance is the only combat veteran on either ticket.

Thanks, I was just going to post this. His uniform won't have a patch on the right shoulder. He's a veteran but not a combat veteran.

There’s a big difference and James knows it. I was in Kuwait during operation enduring freedom. I am not a combat vet. Not one round was fired at me. If you want to be technical so the people who don’t understand think he was storming Baghdad, that’s dishonest at best.

Is this like when Richard Blumenthal aka “da nang dick” professed that he served “during” the Vietnam war as opposed to serving “in” the Vietnam war?

Yes, and I read that he was then demoted from Command Sergeant Major to Master Sergeant.
