    He did say she should be shot. As for Political figures ever to fight on the frontline well Dwight D Eisenhower WW2, Winston Churchill Bore W and WW1, even the little corporal Hitler WW1.

    I’m not sticking up for Trump. I despise the guy, but it’s just my understanding that he said “she should have guns trained on her face” and that she was a “war hawk”.

    As for those you named. I’m not sure any were political figures at the time of carrying out military duties, I believe Churchill was minister for munitions at the end of WW1, but not sure if he saw any action in that time ? I’ve no doubt there have been Officers that lead from the front.

    He really didn't. You should watch the footage of the full exchange, not the deceptive edited crap the massed forces of the dreadful left wing media colluded on before sharing with you

    If, having seen the full version, you still believe he was saying she should be shot, then I'm afraid you're too stupid to be allowed out on your own. Or a democrat voter in other words.

    If I were to ask "what is currently the most effective way to signal you're an idiot in 3 words?" this might be the winning answer.

    In 12 months time, the American election will have made zero difference to your life. They both seem inept in different ways to me but doesn’t really matter at all.

    Churchill was in four conflicts....Punjab rebellion, Mahdist war in Sudan, 2nd Boer War and 7 months as a Regimental Lt Colonel in WW1.

    This is an idiotic view, regardless of which side you favour in the US election

    I’m not disputing that he was involved in conflicts. Question is, was he a political figure at the time of his involvement? Were any of those persons named?

    He/they may well have been, but my point was that politicians and military leaders generally don’t lead from the front.

    No need. If you're unable to respond to comments without resorting to personal insults, this might not be the place for you.

    No, he didn't. This is the sorta stuff what I was on about in my earlier post. Lies again. I actually completely agree with him on this point too - instead of sending our kids into the line of fire, let's send some politicians first so they can truly see what the cost of war is - especially the fuxking Cheneys!!!

    The amount of money Cheneys, Clinton's, Bush, Haley and on and on have made from profiting from wars is disgusting.

    A bit like when trump sent thousands of his supporters to storm the capitol resulting in 6 deaths and hundreds of injured people while he hid
