Never saw combat...but hey when do Dems ever tell you the truth or work in facts?

Mayor Pete thinks about Trump What, me worry?

Hey Mayor Pete how about Clinton and Obama They didn’t serve anywhere

MANY times.

You can’t enter heaven gay! Just saying

puleeeeez

A lot of people dodged that war. Joined the Guard, became a CO, moved to Canada. When Bill Clinton was President, he didn’t serve. Remember the draft? It was going on then.

This is a person that bombs Yemen of starving people, allows Saudi Arabia to slaughter a news journalist, allowed Putin to invade the U.S., put false information about North Korea and Iran into the American’s heads, closes down the Government twice, and more than 280 letters.

Hey kid go back home while it clean

I am a very proud Canadian, my father served in the US military in WW2. It pains me to see aout great friend and Ally into this zone of no return please my American friends get rid of this evil self centred idiot from your government. PLEASE!!!

I think Boodie-Judge was a truck driver🤷🏼‍♂️even with the gun pic he looked G.y I mean uncool😂👎🤡

Butthead has spoken.

Accuses? It is a fact that Trump dodged the draft with fake bone spurs. Stop fronting for Trump.

DISGUSTING IS AS DISGUSTING DOES.

Yeah! Go for it!!!!!

He did avoid it his wife is an immigrant and none of his family respects us Veterans he is all hot air

Yep.

You put Bush era war criminals on tv every single day.

Bone spurs are very painful...they can be easily fixed. Get loud Mayor Pete!!!

Republican will never mention it & they avoid this topic or others about president including his tax return but senator like Kennedy would complaint about congress. He himself has done nothing in this country being senator.

Yeah but we already know that

He’s not lying. But why is what he says about Trump the focal point here?

We already had a gay, black president.

n this day when we look upon celebrities that paid to have their children get into a college why would we not look with the same scrutiny of someone who pays a DR to write something untrue to get our of service in our military. Both are something only available to the rich!

Accused? How about acknowledged. Pointed out. Noticed.

Also disgusting that Trump would threaten a war with Iran based on his own insecurities, killing untold thousands of innocent Iranians, allies and US military.

Go Pete. He says what he thinks😂👍

I agree with Mayor Pete. Trump is the scum at the bottom of the swamp.

Butt holes are for pooping... Clearly not for having sex with, or speaking out of. Put a cork in it.... PeteButtigieg 'but-gig'

And that’s why Trump is President and Pete never will be.

At least PeteButtigieg is talking about it StandUpToTrump

I think mayor Pete gets under drumpfs skin he knows this country isn’t that opened minded to elect a gay president so he going to throw jabs at drumpf till he has to bow out the race

Did this guy serve in the army? If not he should shut up. Most rich people don’t serve.

Change “accuses” to “states” and I think you’ve got it.

Minorities as a substantial whole are never going to embrace this guy

How great would it have been if Trump would have been forced to fight in VietnaM! Go mayor PetE

But Bernie Sanders avoiding the draft is perfectly OK. 🙄

Ask the president if you knows what the military code of conduct is?

Is Mayor Pete a butthead...or is he just pandering to his ButtHeads?

'Stated well known fact.'

Thankyou Mayor Pete!

Butt igieg once again slams the president What have you, Butt igieg done as mayor to make your city better, and what can you do for the US Only tell the truth now😁

We know the president is a coward
