  • Do people realize that Ike Eisenhower, the great Ike Eisenhower by the way, never saw combat. A 5-Star General and Supreme Commander never actually saw any combat. Dont throw stones at anyone in the military because they weren't Patton or Audie Murphy
  • @stacyewhite3037
    How low can they go? We should not be surprised by anything. True patriots honor everyone's service.
  • Thank goodness that trump and vance don't "frame themselves up inaccurately."
  • @pennyshook3513
    After serving 24 years in the National Guard he deserves to be retired
  • As an Army retiree, I wish the news organizations would contact the Office of The Adjutant General of Minnesota to ask any and all questions about CSM (1SG/MSG) Walz's record and retirement instead of civilian journalists. Civilians stumble over titles, schooling, characterization of service, even nomenclature of weapon systems and it is cringe.
  • @Johnny-bb6kp
    Vance is a total drag on Trump....he will be dropped in the coming weeks
  • Why are you still talking about this. Not news. Nothing there. No issue. My Dad was a vet. No no no stop this BS.
  • @user-mw7mv9ll8s
    Walz served 24 years. I don't care he decided to retire. Vance served 4 years, and his weapon was a pen. They both served thank you both. I do like Walz other public history vs. Vance. Walz being a teacher and coach, house representatives, and governor. Vance was a capital venture. Thanks to his good friend Pete Thiel. Vance changed his name numerous times. Until a republican with John McCain, caliber runs, I can not vote republican.
  • @spicewood7790
    Didn’t Shady Vance (or what ever his real name is nowadays) say trump was the next Hitler and he would NEVER vote for trump and now he’s trump’s bootlicker? Now THAT IS WEIRD !!!
  • @Joseph70663
    All claims have been thoroughly debunked. He RETIRED 2 months BEFORE his unit was even notified about possible deployment to Iraq. And RETIRED with full permission of his commander.
  • @billdurkee8824
    The JD and Walz both served honorably. Done. Now can we get back to the issues?
  • @GHGore
    Republicans aim at Tim Walz's stolen valor... FIFY
  • @user-bd6vt7oo5c
    Five deferments based on 'bone spurs?'😂 Sit this one out, JD, or whatever your name is this week.
