you know why the GOP is abandoning veterans? bcz the conman can't admit the fact that he is the multiple times draft dodger coward, not a strong man. to hate honorable, brave people is the only way to justify his Infantile omnipotence.

It almost feels like punishment—they use veterans for campaign talking points but consistently fail to prioritize their needs when it comes time to fund their healthcare, disability benefits, and job programs.

The GOP have always believed the vets deserve nothing. I wish I had saved the article I read, years ago.

Of course it does. President Biden championed this in honor of his son Bo. So of course it has to go and f*ck the “losers and suckers.” Don’t think for a second that Hegseth will push back. He’s too busy drinking.

So sorry veterans. You deserve so much better. Thank you for your service.

It pains my heart to know some vets will be ok w it.

I'll never understand this.

Republicans use veterans just like they use everybody else… They couldn’t give a shit less about anyone except themselves

Our ONLY hope is a MAGA Vet who loses benefits and support and feels betrayed.

"Abandoning" as if they've ever cared about any demographic in the first place

They’ve already removed the message about these resources from the VA voicemail. I used to get irked having to wait for the msg to end before I could get to the prescriptions line to order dad’s meds, and now I’m just sad. Our vets deserve so much better. Vote them out!

I never dreamed that the Republicans would turn their backs on veterans who sacrificed to defend this great nation.

I never dreamed they wouldn't. They have a long track record of saying they love veterans while simultaneously making their lives harder.

They’re just like the 🟠☝️.
Never have cared about the Veterans.. it’s cheaper to pay their death benefits..
It always was just a 🐂 💩 line.. just like thoughts and prayers..
I have ☝️thought for the 🟠☝️ and ☝️prayer 🤔⌛️

They were never there for Veterans to begin with! Veterans were there for them.

Trump. “I like guys who aren’t exposed to toxic substances OK?”

2018
Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed.
