Apparently Trump’s press conference is going to be about Walz’s military service. There’s a detailed story here for background. I’ve never served. I only have gratitude for those who have, whether it was months or years, regardless of politics. We aren’t perfect, but Trump is the worst of us. 🇺🇸

@manton It will be another desperate move of the weirdos.

@manton Interesting way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Swift Boats Veterans

@manton I find it entertaining that the Trump campaign is immediately attacking Walz and his military record. Brought to you by the guy who has referred to military members as terrible people.

I guess they are trying to take a page from the playbook they used against Kerry with the swift boat deal. Given they can't come up with any actual strategy to use against the Harris/Walz ticket.

@manton Imagine doing something difficult and critical for 24 months. He did that for 24 YEARS. National Guard is just as important as those who go overseas. How safe would America be if we sent all of our firefighters to other countries and didn't have any here. It's bizarre to suggest that National Guardspeople are less than somehow.

@tylerknowsnothing Completely agree.

@manton The problem is, a lot of elements in the story are disputed.

So it ends up being preaching to the choir as people who have heard a different story aren’t going to accept this one.
