Veterans DEMAND Trump produce the MILLIONS he SAID he raised for veterans’ charities!!! | The Right Scoop

More than 50 veterans released a statement Sunday calling on presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump to show respect for the country’s veterans and donate the millions of dollars he allegedly raised during a fundraiser several months ago.​

Apparently, besides the fund-raising scam the vets are unimpressed with Trump's other statements as well.

“His embrace of both military adventurism and isolationism, and his support of the use of torture will not only recklessly place our troops in harm’s way, but will dramatically increase the risk to our service members serving in operations overseas.”

The statement called Trump’s policies “detrimental” to people who serve the country.

“He can’t be trusted, by our veterans or anyone else,” it said
.​

Go vets. :oldthumbsup:

The President is Commander-in-Chief. The big questions include how would Trump actually carry out foreign policy as it involves the military.

He gave an answer to that already -- he would order the military to "go after" the civilian friends and families of terrorists... how many dozens of our men and women in uniform flat-out said publicly that there was no way they'd ever follow such orders?

Hard to respect a commander-in-chief who promises to make you commit war crimes...

Not to mention how that will help terrorist organizations recruit.

A few days ago, they were talking on the radio about how, if Trump would be elected president and actually try to implement some of the military measures he said he wants to, he'd have the military essentially revolting against him.

I think some generals have already said that would be an illegal order and would not be obeyed. To many of those and I think you will have the Joint Chiefs asking Congress for impeachment.

Military personnel are supposed to be protected for refusing to obey an "unlawful order". I don't think Trump could start a war just by waving his hand, but he can botch foreign policy enough to increase US military involvement in trouble spots. Certain "special operations" are not carried out without the President giving the final go-ahead. Herr Trump will be far more talk than action militarily because Congress can pull funding or refuse funding of major operations.

But According to the FEMA Camp post I've always been seeing, (Also the Militia post) The Military blindly follows orders and will do whatever the Government says, including going after civilians.

I always look to militia gun nut publications for accurate news. Doesn't everyone?

At least someone is trying to hold Trump accountable for what he said....or maybe he was just sayin.
