Mr. Roche, I am with you 100% in your and other brave retired veterans’ sentiments about the Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, Comrade Bonespurs. His cowardice and his constant lying is eroding our Democracy, an we veterans who have paid attention know it!

Ed,

For whatever it is worth, I am a 23-year retired veteran. As such, I would ask you to perhaps consider my opinion to be more valid when it comes to the President and the comments that were "reported" by a less than responsible publication. As it turns out, that terrible quote could not be verified nor authenticated. In fact, there were more than 5 witnesses who were present that did verify that it never happened. Even John Bolton, no friend of the President said, it didn’t happen.

So, before you decide to cast your vote to the candidate that unashamedly supports an agenda that is in complete opposition to the values we swore to uphold, I would suggest you reconsider your initial impulse.

The Party that you’ve been loyal to all these years has abandoned every patriotic principle that you should rightly be proud of. The Democrats have made it very clear, they support and endorse the tenants of a Marxist/Socialist, “reimagined” America. Their tacit support of the BLM organization, the rioting in our cities by the Anarchist group ANTIFA, and their newly adopted “Defunding Police” policies should be all the proof you need. Did you witness the assassination attempt of the two Deputies and the “demonstrations” afterward, this past weekend? Every normal American was disgusted by these events. Not the Democrats or their supporters. They practically endorsed both with an extremely weak response and rationalizations for the abhorrent behavior that was displayed.

Knowing what you have given and sacrificed for our Country, I would ask you to seriously reconsider your position.

These radical principles go against everything we took an oath to defend, protect, and uphold. They would destroy the very foundation of our Republic.
