Screwing The Veterans and Lying About It


   Donald Trump just said, "My budget also puts America first by keeping tax dollars in America to help veterans and first responders."
   This is the same FAKE NEWS he's forever whining about: In fact, the defense budget has nothing to do with veterans or first responders--that money comes out of a whole different pot.
   It does not come out of the defense budget.
   The US Department of Veterans Affairs is not under the Defense Department--it's a separate agency. 

   Please don't believe this scam just because it came out of the Fuhrer's mouth. It's a lie--and he's banking on you not knowing the difference.
   That's an insult to the American people and it's also an insult to America's veterans--even to the ones who actually don't know the difference.
   We have homeless veterans out on the street--we have disabled veterans who can't get a job--we have first responders with life-threatening diseases who can't get medical care.
   And he claims his ridiculous $54B boost in defense spending is going to help this problem? That is either irresponsibly stupid or it's a lie. Believe whichever you'd like about the president, but you've got to believe one or the other--either he's an idiot or a liar. Take your pick.
   Don't let this wannabe dictator pull the wool over your eyes with all his rah-rah-sis-boom-bah bullshit. Don't let this chest-thumping "Make America Great" crap blind you as to what's really going on here.
   He's screwing veterans and first-responders and he's lining the pockets of his buddies in the military industrial complex.
