wonder if his Bone Spurs are acting up again?
Draft-Dodger Trump Said Sleeping Around Was My Personal Vietnam
Draft-dodger Donald Trump once said that the danger he faced from getting sexually transmitted diseases was his own personal Vietnam.
In a 1997 interview with shock jock Howard Stern, Trump talked about how he had been lucky not to have contracted diseases when he was sleeping around.
Ive been so lucky in terms of that whole world. It is a dangerous world out there. Its scary, like Vietnam. Sort of like the Vietnam-era, Trump said in a video that resurfaced Tuesday on Buzzfeed, It is my personal Vietnam. I feel like a great and very brave soldier.
It wasnt the only time the Republican frontrunner for president would liken his personal life to wartime service: Trump has claimed that his military-themed boarding school education was essentially equivalent to having being trained in the military.
