“Spin”?!?
As an honorably discharged Marine, I can say there is no spin. Whelan was a POS. He got dishonorably discharged. That negates him “putting on the uniform”.
This gives leftists a great comeback and talking point, yet again.
"This" what? The headline?
Complain to the headline writer. The comment, whether Trump said it or whether Mickey Mouse said it, is perfectly appropriate.
