Nice try with the straw man argument. Nobody here is claiming the document is forged. The question is whether it matters or not. POTUS took advantage of student deferments which were available back then. Nothing illegal. Whether student deferments should or shouldn’t have been allowed is a separate issue, but regardless, to apply for one was completely legal, and unlike some who back then enrolled in college just to get some useless degree to avoid the draft, Trump’s degree was directly pertinent to his chosen career path.

As to Rush Limbaugh, he was 4-F, due to a pilonidal cyst.

Rush luckier than me. I had one and the army removed it after i was in for two years. I was so pleased that I stayed for 23 1/2 years.

I personally wrote a letter to President Nixon complaining about his description of the Viet Nam war as “just”...he stopped using that word shortly after. Like Trump, I used numerous student deferments to avoid getting killed in Viet Nam like some of my friends. At that time, even the Coast Guard had a waiting list over 2 years long. When Nevada opened a new Nevada National Guard unit in Las Vegas, I and 250 other draft dodgers from all over the country flew into Las Vegas to be sworn in by then Governor, Paul Laxalt. After basic training and advanced infantry training at Fort Ord, I transferred to a U.S. Army Reserve unit at Ft. MacArthur in San Pedro for the rest of my 6 year commitment. All of my American ancestors from the 1600’s to my father in WW2 served in our military, but Viet Nam was a stupid and totally unnecessary waste of a lot of patriotic young men lives for nothing. So was Iraq and Afghanistan because those Muslim Jihadists will always be there...so either we turn Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan into a large glass parking lot or we kill any of them outside those shiitehole countries...no more useless and stupid wars..........................
