Donald Trump did not serve during the Vietnam conflict.
Many Mexican Americans and other immigrants fought and died to protect the American values of truth, justice and freedom.
The Donald is above all that.
Truth? Whats that?
Justice: annihilate whistleblowers.
Freedom? Arrest and deport aliens who have quietly contributed to their communities in gratitude for the decent life America used to offer.
