JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: THE MATTER OF TRUMP'S SELF-DECLARED BRAVERY - A COMEDIAN'S BRILLIANT LINE ABOUT IT - A DETAILED RECORD OF TRUMP'S ACTUAL LIFELONG COWARDICE




COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT


Donald Trump ridiculed by late night talk show hosts over claim he would have run into Florida school to tackle shooter

“What are you going to do, stab them with your bone spurs?'

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.

Readers may enjoy this which also clarifies the comedian's reference:

_____________________

In discussing Trump's "courage," it's important to note his already-established record while President.

None of Obama's foreign affairs horrors have been overturned - from efforts to have mercenaries in Syria use poison gas (taken from the murdered Qaddafi's supplies) as an excuse for American bombing to threatening a peaceful Russia.

The Pentagon has been given more money than it knows how to spend.

The tanks' engines are still roaring at the Russian border.

The CIA, which runs America's extrajudicial killing program, has been given a free hand in choosing whom it kills.

Afghanistan is still suffering under American occupation and increased bombing with no end in sight and absolutely nothing achieved.

American forces are illegally ensconced in Syria, busy helping terrorists.

The entire Mideast is in flames.

Israel is given whatever it likes and is allowed to threaten a peaceful Iran and continue its own atrocities and human rights horrors.

Trump’s UN Ambassador, Nikki Haley, pretty well speaks for Israeli interests.

And all this from a man who in his campaign said that we should get along with Russia and asked why the Middle East was in flames.

He was strong on those vital points. Then.

But when he first actually sat down around a big polished oak table with all that Pentagon brass and those big suits with the stern faces from the CIA, he shrank down into his chair like an 8-year old boy and peed his pants.

The man is beyond ridiculous.

George Bush was contemptible, but I'm not sure Trump hasn't outdone him in a single year for contemptible behavior.
