The malodorous, child-raping orange gash who cowers in food carts could've won the Vietnam war in a week? Lol

The same war he draft dodged by having bone spurs.
Now he says he would have won it.
So why'd he draft dodge it?

DR Veterans who voted for Trump know why he dodged the draft.
Because he's better than them.

He can't win the war he started in Iran.

But sure. Vietnam would have been a cake walk.

Trump often lays claim to uncanny powers to render the maddeningly complex comically simple.
If you think that makes him a simpleton, what about his marks?.

This is why he always gets the WWE vote. It's not about the content; it's about the performance.

Trump Says He Would Have Won Vietnam War in a Week, Mixes Up Cities

Then why didn't he summon up his (self-professed) magical juju and win in Iran in a week or two?

Had Trump been President he would have been so enamored with Ho Chi Minh's glutes that the US would have sided with the North.
