General Discussion / Re: Trump Was No Draft-Dodger, and Here's the Timeline That Proves It

While Trump had 5 deferments, Biden had 6.

Every single time, without exception, whenever I've debated a liberal about Trump's deferments, none of them knew about Biden's deferments.  Once pointed out and proven, they generally shut up.

If I'm not mistaken, there's a vast number of people in the US with deportation orders already against them. Why hamstring ICE even more in trying to remove these people?

The loss of Dem voters, current and future.

Still Winning: India Agrees on Trade – And Ending Russian Oil Imports?

Rack 'em up before the Supreme Court cuts the legs out from under Donald Trump's tariff leverage. One has to wonder whether the justices may be waiting for a few more trade agreements to come in line before publishing their ruling on Trump's authority under the IEEPA. Or, perhaps, delaying it just in case Trump can use it to end the war in Ukraine.

Trump offered that as a potential outcome from a new trade agreement reached with India today. The agreement will limit reciprocal tariffs to 18% and commits India to invest $500 billion in the US. Most importantly, Trump claims that India has agreed to cut off Russian oil imports while the war in Ukraine continues:

The top-line story in this is that Trump's tariff's again, accomplished what Trump want to be accomplished. Another big part of the story, though, is what it was Trump wanted, India ceasing to buy Russian oil, action # 532,979 that complicates DU-grade Progs' Trump-Russia Collusion dogma.

The fact that on any other given day, lefty says Vietnam was an immoral war. They said we were the invaders and all we did was murder and rape innocent rice farmers.

But then they insist Trump and Bush Jr. etc. were wrong to avoid this (even though neither one did).

Are we supposed to believe someone would be deemed immoral if they dodged fighting for the Nazis? The dems fronted a presidential candidate that condemned the war and protested it alongside Ramsey Clarke of all people!

Democrats told us it was the most secure election ever (after they spread fears of Trump stealing it), and yet, it's taken us years to get to a point where we can actually examine the evidence.

Pam Bondi: 2 More Arrests in Don Lemon Church Protest

https://www.newsmax.com/us/pam-bondi-arrests-minnesota/2026/02/02/id/1244503/

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Monday that two more suspects have been arrested in the takeover of a St. Paul, Minnesota, church — a case that last week also ensnared former CNN anchor Don Lemon.

The arrests of Ian Davis Austin and Jerome Deangelo Richardson bring the total detained to at least 11 stemming from the Jan. 18 protest at Cities Church.

"If you riot in a place of worship, we WILL find you," Bondi wrote in a post on X.

More indictments. I wonder how deep in the leadership of this attack the indictments will go ... or if DoJ will track down every "protester".

Trump Was No Draft-Dodger, and Here's the Timeline That Proves It

"Five-time draft dodger," the "Rich man’s draft dodger," and, of course, "President Bone Spurs." Those are just three of the many slurs used by lefties and TDS sufferers to describe the current commander-in-chief, who was eligible for the draft during the Vietnam War, but somehow never served.

But is there any truth behind the slurs?
...
But it's the draft-dodging part that stuck in climate researcher Willis Eschenbach's craw. For whatever reason, Eschenbach chose to lay out the facts in an image, but I've transcribed it for you so you can copy, paste, and send it to all your lefty friends in a desperate and failed bid to break through their reality distortion field.
...
Here are the facts, simply laid out by Eschenbach and verified by Yours Truly using both Grok and ChatGPT. A couple of the dates are slightly off, but everything checks out.

* Trump registered for the draft after his 18th birthday on June 24, 1964 (draft dodgers don't register*).

* He was given an S-2 (college) deferment on June 28, 1964 (perfectly legal, not a draft dodger).

* His S-2 status was renewed on Dec 14, 1965 (legal, not a draft dodger), and he was then classified on Nov. 22, 1966, as 1-A (available for service).

* Dec. 13, 1966, his S-2 was again granted to attend Wharton (legal, not a draft dodger). His final deferral was granted on Jan. 16, 1968.

* After graduating from Wharton, he was reclassified 1-A on July 9, 1968. He went to his Armed Forces Physical (something a draft dodger probably would not do) on Sept. 19, 1968, and was categorized as 1-Y, disqualified for service except in war or national emergency (due to bone spurs in both heels).

* He received a high draft lottery number and was never called up. On Feb. 17, 1972, after the abolishment of the 1-Y classification, he was classified 4-F (not qualified for military service).

I'd add — again, confirmed by two LLMs — that in the 1969 draft lottery (implemented for 1970 inductions), Trump's birthdate drew a high number (356 out of 366), which would have likely exempted him from being called up even without the medical classification.

Per https://randomservices.org/random/data/Draft.html , Trump's draft numbers were:

For 1970 inductions, 358;

For 1971 inductions, 236;

For 1972 inductions, 328;

For 1973 inductions (none were), 61.

Of course, the mockers focus on Trump's bone spurs. These would have been been shown using Xrays at Trump's September 19, 1968 Armed Forces Physical. For those who believe heel bone spurs, just ask someone who has such bone spurs or plantar fasciitis what happens if they walk just 4 or 5 miles, during and after their walk.

I did a 10K walk (~6.22 miles) that caused a plantar fasciitis flare up. I was barely able to walk at all for several days afterward.

Think about it. If you were an election official who knew the elections in your county were conducted properly and in exact conformance with the law then you would welcome a check on your records which would verify what a great job you have been doing. Instead, many Fulton County election officials are freaking out and are in a state of panic over the FBI seizing the voting records. And one of the very guilty acting Fulton County Commissioners now even wants to become the Georgia Secretary of State so she can do for state elections what has happened in Fulton County.
