Perhaps Dill can be of assistance; he was last time.

And I was simply pointing out how Trump supporters claim you "can not find fault" when Trump tells a lie. You proved my point perfectly.

It's amazing that children would besmirch the integrity of their father for this reason:
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/daughters-late-podiatrist-claim-diagnosed-donald-trump-bone-spurs-vietnam-war-favor-134618527.html Quote:Dr. Elysa Braunstein and Sharon Kessel — the daughters of Dr. Larry Braunstein, who died in 2007 — say their father was one of Fred Trump’s tenants at the time, setting up his podiatry practice in the Trump-owned Edgerton Apartments in Jamaica, Queens. Though they are unsure whether their dad actually examined the then 22-year-old Donald Trump, the sisters say that he often spoke of signing off on the diagnosis that kept Trump out of the war. The doctor also gave them the impression that Trump didn’t actually have bone spurs, but he said otherwise to help keep him out of the draft, they say. Not to mention the integrity of the NY Times chose to run it on the front page

No one has any proof; other than she said and the NYT is guilty of lack of journalistic integrity, as I said their actions are worse than the daughters'. They may truly be stating what they remember. There's nothing to be gained other than disrespecting the memory of a deceased MD.

Because the issue at hand is the integrity of the DR. Not whether or not the current POTUS used nefarious means to dodge his civic duty.

Of course many affluent youths had their medical conditions embellished to avoid the draft, (see Bill Clinton) but this article doesn't even state POTUS did it; it suggests his father made it happen. So yes, the point is the integrity of the medical professional. But the bigger point, as I have mentioned, is the NYT making it front page "news".

Tough situation. By exposing that Trump didn't have bone spurs, you're saying your dad was a liar.
