Trump says our troops were not on the frontline in Afghanistan

Our AC was also in Afghanistan, in a very dangerous operational situation.

My view on the current POTUS are unprintable🤬🤬🤬

Just posted this on another thread.
There are no words really that I can say to sum up how offended I feel by Trump’s asinine remarks that will come as a slap in the face to the loved ones of those who were killed and those coping with life changing injuries and PTSD.

I saw a clip of Emily Thornberry on Question Time last night responding to a question about this. The American guest beside her said that Trump had made a 'mistake'. She went for that with all guns blazing! It was insulting was the theme of her response. She was obviously furious.

Here's Emily in full flood

Yes, I loved that she was clearly so angry and the calmly sneering smirking guy with his greasy hair did not flinch from his defence of the indefensible.

Can King Charles, as Commander in Chief of our British armed forces, really visit the White House in the summer now?

It was not a "mistake", it was a blatant lie intended to convince his stupid supporters that America has never received any support from other nations. Presumably he thinks the rest of the world does not know the truth

You could say the Americans only joined in the Second World War on the side of the allies because the Japanese attacked them. Before that they tended to support the Germans. I don’t think Trump would like that as a home truth.

My son, a serving British soldier has served in tours of both Afghanistan and Iraq. He was most definitely was on the front line!

Both him and his family are still suffering the consequences of those tours to this day. I am just so angry and upset today by his heartless comments. How DARE this miserable excuse for a man downplay what our troops did in these places.

Or the fact that any money given to the UK in 1945 was a loan, there was no largesse here, and the UK paid it back by 2006.

Such a dangerous, mentally unstable man. He will be the ruin of the world. I have never wished harm on anyone before, but I find myself wishing evil things on Trump.

You're wrong, nanna8. America won WW2 - Trump said so.

I don't have any family in the forces but I am furious about what Trump said.
A soldier on BBC news, a triple amputee, after going to the aid of the US said he was shoulder to shoulder with the US soldiers on the front line.
This is just peevish Trump annoyed about Greenland.
I would be banned if I said how I really feel about this awful draft dodging man.

Trump is a disgusting, disgraceful, lying POTUS, who cares about nothing other than his hugely inflated egotistical self.

Nothing he does, including this latest so called World Peace committee fiasco, which hands him bucketfuls of extra power.

He has disrespected and offended so many people and nations.

RIP to our own brave troops in any war.

Hahaha must be true then!

Honestly it would be laughable if it wasn’t so horrific. How dare he!

No!

Just when you think he can’t sink any lower, he does 🤬🤬

So many of our brave soldiers were killed or severely injured answering the US call for aid from NATO.
One of those soldiers asks for Trump to apologise to those families who are still suffering after losing a loved family member.
Trump has lowered himself even more now. Despicable being. Can't call him a man.

🥀🥀🥀 for all those families of soldiers who have lost their lives or have been injured.

In fact, he was there, leading the troops.

The man is a dangerous buffoon.
That is an under statement btw.

I so agree, he’s surely about as low as he can go now?

Don't hold your breath!

Trump should talk!

As I asked, in another post, was this creature disappointed and heartbroken when his rich Daddy's money greased enough palms to get him exempted from the Vietnam War draft?
