If you decide to enroll, congrats and my hats off to you.  Just do it for the right reasons.

The "kids" you refer to that are actually in the military know the risk.  It's the rest of the population that don't understand the sacrifice they are willing to make.

Quite possibly the dumbest statement ever.  Anyone that joins the military is taking a massive risk, they know it, and the public knows it....but for a president to call with a condolence phone call and remind the family of that is just insensitive at the time.

Again, it's the typical people here defending him no matter what.  It's just funny. 

People are mad that everything about Trump is being politicized?  Well then tell the idiot to stay off Twitter, do his job quietly, stop saying stupid things and maybe the media wont have as much to talk about.  He brings all of this onto himself.  To act like all of this is on the media is absolutely ridiculous.  While the media likes to make a story out of everything, Trump loves being the center of attention.
