All the times Trump dishonored U.S. veterans and military service
President Trump is a big fan of the military â except  perhaps  those who have been captured or killed.
After four Army soldiers were killed in the Oct. 4 ambush   Trump  remained quiet for 12 days.
 He  then disputed accounts alleging that  he  told the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson he âknew what he signed up forâ and forgot the soldierâs name.
 Trump  later tweeted that he had a ârespectful conversationâ with the widow  and denied he forgot Johnsonâs name.
The latest flare-up came after a bizarre week in which  Trump  feuded with Rep. Frederica Wilson  who heard the call on speakerphone as it happened. White House Chief of Staff John Kelly  himself a retired four-star Marine general  called Wilson an âempty barrelâ and told reporters an erroneous story about her.
The sad chapter marks  Trumpâs  latest incident of waging war on those who served or the notion of military service.
A moment of silence  please  as we recall  Trumpâs  decorated history of dishonoring service:

Trump  never served in the military  dodging the Vietnam War with four deferments before finally falling back on a medical disqualification for bone spurs that kept  him  out of combat for good.
In the first campaign controversy that made  Trumpâs White House  bid seem doomed   he  insulted the Republican senator â and 2008 Republican presidential candidate â who spent more than five years suffering as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.
 Trump   who spent those same years working at  his  fatherâs real estate company  wasnât impressed.
â He âs not a war hero â he said at an Iowa summit in July 2015.
â He  was a war hero because  he  was captured. I like people who werenât captured.â
 Trump  would only double down on those comments in the next few days  calling the war veteran âyet another all talk  no action politicianâ who has âdone very little for veterans.â
