Trump and Ted Nugent had nothing to do with this conversation and neither of them stood in front of cameras and claimed to be in Vietnam as Blumenthal did. Bringing them up is just a diversion tactic that a lot of you love when assuming anyone who criticizes the left is of a certain political bias and mindset. When you look at the scope of effort the left has put into Trump compared to actually solving the issues they should be focusing on it's really asinine that we still have to hear his name in the media every other day when he can simply be ignored at this point. Ted Nugent can stick to making music and I don't care about anyone in the entertainment industries politics. I also don't own a gun, never have, and have no aspirations to if that was one of your assumptions. Blumenthal also only became a reservist as simply another ploy to dodge the draft and he never left the country. One of my family members though was drafted from college(one of Blumenthals deferment reasons) and dropped on the frontlines.

You realize he sponsored 1 of those pieces of legislation and the rest he was simply a cosponsor. Big difference in the two things, one is writing and proposing it, the other is tacking your name on the end.
