Most of the Draft Evaders were cowards.  I have more respect for Joan Baez's husband and Muhammed Ali who faced jail than I do for cowards who fled to Canada or Sweden.  I met two (2) such individuals in real life after Carter pardoned them, and they were cowards, sad to say; the military has always had exemptions and non-combat roles for REAL conscientious objectors.  These were my impressions when I was a liberal Democrat; I didn't take them on last week.

Wow! I didn't know that you had such a low opinion of Donald Trump.

Trump was not a Draft Evader; he was rated 4F.  That was a fact of Vietnam, and of our military now; people are classified 4F with medical issues that would be overlooked if the conflict were, say, WWII.


Be careful or you might need to move these goalposts to Mars.
