<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nThe other day we talked about Paul Rieckhoff<\/a> using Donald Trump’s political stunt for his own political stunt. Close on his heels, Jon Soltz of VoteVets<\/a> did a “me, too” and refused Trump donations to his partisan organization before the money was offered (actully the money was raised through Trump’s foundation for veterans, and wasn’t offered to IAVA or VV anyway). Now this Sean Sorbie fellow, another clearly partisan Democrat from Florida (pictured above during his Wittgenfeld moment six years ago) writes that Donald Trump insults him, somehow, by raising 6 million dollars for veteran causes last night.<\/p>\n Veterans are facing real challenges and need serious solutions from America\u2019s leaders, but what we\u2019ve seen during this presidential campaign is Republican candidates using vets as political pawns to get media attention. It\u2019s insulting.<\/p>\n Donald Trump, who criticized John McCain\u2019s war record and tried to have veterans removed from outside his Fifth Avenue Trump Tower, is now putting on a media event that exploits vets for his own political interests, all because he doesn\u2019t want to debate his Republican rivals on Fox News tonight.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n He goes on to complain about what “Republicans” want to do to harm veterans – things like reforming the Veterans Affairs Department. Evil Republicans won’t destroy the economy by increasing the minimum wage and pricing veterans out of the job market. Evil Republicans want to do away with Obama Care which will somehow affect veterans badly. And finally, evil Republicans don’t like how Obama is dragging out the war against ISIS to last into the next presidency while Obama slashes defense spending to dangerously low levels. Then he lists the wonderful things that President Obama has done to uselessly throw taxpayer money at veterans’ issues without really making things better – perhaps making them worse.<\/p>\n Somehow, Trump, Cruz and Fiorina giving private money to veterans insults Mr Sorbie. I guess only public money doesn’t insult him. Personally, I think that these clearly partisan morons are insulting veterans if they think that we’re going to vote for candidates who aren’t giving veterans anything – even in terms of rhetoric. Can Sorbie, or Rieckhoff, or Soltz tell us any particulars about the plans for national defense of any of the Democrat candidates? How will Bernie Sanders or Hillary Clinton fix veterans’ issues like homelessness and health? Yeah, I didn’t think so.<\/p>\n So why are there partisan Democrat organizations so worried about Donald Trump’s money? Does Trump’s money somehow spend differently than other money?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
