hold on because this story might be being politicized by both parties and no one has the facts...

this..

and even if he did say it, the media isn't using this story for the family, they're politicizing it to use against Trump.

They're just as shitty as he is for this

Is it true or not is the only thing that matters

He's not wrong tho. You signed up in a military that historically does nothing but oppress people around the world.

I'm supposed to feel sympathy because you got your head popped off?

Supposed to feel bad if you black?

If you're black and sign up, voluntarily, for any branch of the military you're the biggest dumb ass on earth.

There's something called "not the time or place"
 
If you go to Vegas with your rent money and lose it on the table, does anyone feel bad for you?

You knew what you were getting into before you went there.

We gonna act like Trump aint said he likes "soldiers that havent been captured"?

We know he said this. He said it for everyone to hear/see.

This statement, "he knew what he signed up for", sounds like something he wld say but did he really say it? All it took was one person, without verification, for them to run w this. They run w anything that shows Trump in a negative light.

The woman who said Trump said this states she has proof. So, hopefully she can air it, I guess. Regardless of this being true or not, though, isn't the issue.

The media isn't using this to do anything positive. The deceased soldiers family has to endure their husband/son/father being politicized to further make Trump look bad just for the fuck of it.

When talking about joining the Military, I think, "Knowing what they are getting into" is a bit of an misnomer.

Personally, when I signed up at the age of 17 war was the last thing on my mind. They sell you you a lot of shit while you are being recruited some truths, some half lies and some gray area shit. My mind was on that signing bonus, free college, and that Va Loan (which I thought was a free house).

I think (know) the avg recruit fresh out of High School is thinking about getting some cash and getting some training (shooting, hand to hand combat, etc) and some other shit, not war.

Hell, sitting at the table w/ the recruiter and moms, my moms flat out asked him, what are the chances of my baby going to war? Dude was like man, hes gonna be brand new, so I doubt he goes. Not knowing how deployment groupings work, we accepted this and kept it moving.

The reality of going to war didn't set in until I was towards to end of AIT when everyone got their orders. The instructors were going around the room asking everyone where they were going to be stationed. They got to me and I said, "1st Cav". They were like oleeee shit, 1st Cav, thats rapid deployment!!! Will, yo ass going to war 1st! They thought that shit was funny as hell.

Cant lie, I was shook up for a lil bit when we got back to the Barracks. Crazy thing is, I got to my unit Jan 3rd, or 4th. Pretty much the whole unit was on leave due to the Holidays. A few days later they called everyone back because we got orders to deploy. A week later they were cancelled.

an this is why...people like you and others need to go back to those environments an tell them kids and families the truth.

the dream sounds good while you know nothing an seen nothing. but then you locked in.

i hate people that take advantage of other people ignorance. not calling you stupid ignorant...but in the term of not fully knowing.

War can be the last thing on your mind but if you sign up for the military you know the shit is a possibility. So as inappropriate as what Trump may have said to the widow the shit is 100% fact yall know what yall signed up for end of story.

For a long time now anybody signing up for the military and saying knowing you could go to war and die is a misnomer is like a drug dealer saying they really didn't know they could go to prison or get killed while selling drugs.

He had 2 weeks.

Thats the best he could come up with in 2 weeks.

Shows you how much effort he puts into his soldiers.

i wonder how they feel that his erractic ass could send them to their death with a tweet and no second thought.

Oh yea, I do no doubt. I don't discourage em from joining, but I make sure I tell them both sides of it.

Nah, what he say

Him waiting two weeks to call could be considered disrespectful.....

The mother allegedly verified it. Unless you want to hear him actually say it...

Personally, if someone in my family dies, last thing I want to hear is he knew what he was signing up for.

Like my fam could get killed robbing a bank and taking hostages, a place where he was totally in the wrong, and im punching you in the face if you say he knew what he was signing up for.

There is a time for being civil and showing sensitivity around a situation.

I dont agree with a lot of what the military does, and on a internet forum i might say yo he knew what he was signing up for in a general setting, but regardless of how I feel about the military, im not gonna tell the family of a dead soldier, "he knew what he was signing up for"

I mean to me, thats what you say when you wanna tell someone they deserved to die.

Now this gets compounded ten fold when its the president saying it to the widow of a fallen soldier. Like bruh, you are the fucking president, and you been going in on the nfl, and you say some shit like this?

I dont expect any type of decorum from Trump, but this is too much even for him.

I understand why military people and family are taking this so hard.
