        Those of us who live with chronic pain wish he'd been able to talk about it yet we understand why, since there is still so much stigma and ableism to contend with even now.

        Probe what Trump was doing? That’s easy-he was hiding out in some shitty college with phony bone spurs.

        Why do you think Trump weaseled out of Vietnam? Personal cowardice? Fear that no one would respect him?

        JFK lanted a Tree in Canada, not the front lawn of the WH, and Trump can’t even go to Mexico, ...Canada May never want to have Trump back after making things up where talking with Canadian leaders.
