No doubt they'll be employing your services to write Trump's speeches for him in future dave.

Trump's job here is to inspire others to do their duties, it's people like you who are the problem, sitting at home in comfort and criticising other who are trying to do their best.

It was very common during conscription for students and apprentices to defer their national service if they wee studying or training.
Then after their studies wee finished they'd serve their time.

This is what Trump did like countless others. Unfortunately when he did offer himself for national service his application was rejected due to a foot defect.

You Trump fantasists (and general thickos) are overlooking the one critical element here.

He masquerades as some sort of latter day general Custer who would take on armed intruders with nothing other than his wig for protection; yet 5 times dodged a draft. Doesn't sound like he would make good his war cry in reality now does it?

Ali etc. have never once claimed they would take on armed intruders with a pencil sharpener and stencil set; or that gun totting teachers should be part of the school curriculum!

Wiggy Trump is a whirling dervish of hyperbole, cheap soundbites and delusions of grandeur. Let's also not forget he inherited his vast empire from his father and has done some pretty despicable things to stop losing everything on several occasions.
