TRUMP: "John McCain, for some reason, couldn't get his arm up..."

I believe this was just last Saturday when Trump was talking about Republicans voting to dismantle the ACA--Obamacare.

TRUMP: “John McCain, for some reason, couldn’t get his arm up…”

John couldn’t get his fucking arm up because he was tortured as a POW while serving in Vietnam.

Trump dodged the draft crying bone spurs. What a POS to still be besmirching a war hero.

And sometimes it hurts pretty bad. I'm no Doctor but I just can't imagine if you had bone spurs when you were young, that they wouldn't be much worse when your around 80 years old.
