The Difference 

Sometimes the irony is overwhelming. Three Presidents who dodged the draft in order to avoid having to go to Vietnam come to mind. Bill Clinton attended college, George W. Bush joined the Texas Air National Guard, and Donald Trump got a doctor’s note about bone spurs that would prevent him from being able to wear combat boots though he attended a military school and participated in sports with no apparent foot issues.

He had a plan to get out of Vietnam but no clue how to get out of Iran, a war he obviously started as a distraction from the Epstein Files. I do not think a doctor’s note will get you out of Iran or Epstein, Donald. To quote a saying that many if us were taught as children, “You cannot lie and get by no matter how hard you may try.” Eventually even the best con-men get trapped in their own webs of deceit.
