I never knew why they held a violent protest in 1968? The outcome did nothing to end the Vietnam War. The Republicans plus military complex took over and lasted another 7 years. Unitity with the Democrats would have ended the war a lot sooner.

@elonmusk You Republicans paint whatever you want to your side.
I'm sorry, but there were only two groups that were being focused on.
Talk about spin you guy's created the word.
BREAKING: A Medal of Honor recipient torches Donald Trump for his vile claim that the Presidential Medal of Freedom he gave to one of his donors is "actually much better" than the Medal of Honor.
Colonel Jack Jacobs didn't pull any punches here...
"I can't believe we have to have this conversation but here we are. I guess what I want to ask you is, do the — do your peers, do the men and women — do veterans, do the men and women of the military understand that Donald Trump not only doesn't respect them, but really does see them as suckers and losers?" Nicolle Wallace asked Jacobs during an appearance on MSNBC.
"Well, many do, but many don't," replied Jacobs. "Despite the fact that Donald Trump is one of the most inept public speakers I've heard, and I'm an old person, so I've heard a great number of public speakers, and you often don't know what it is he's saying, not convinced that he knows what it is he's saying. He drifted off in castigating people who have served and sacrificed and can't tell the difference between the Medal of Freedom and the Medal of Honor."
Jacobs then slammed Trump as a "man who, as you said, denigrated people who served and sacrificed so that he can enjoy the freedom that he enjoys now."
"And if it weren't for these people, he wouldn't be in the position where he could — and all of us wouldn't be in the position — where we can enjoy freedom," he continued. "This is also the guy who managed to avoid serving because of a really deleterious heel spur on his foot."
"All that notwithstanding, the problem in this regard is that Donald Trump does not understand some of the things which in history have described how we get to a position where we can have freedom," Jacobs went on. "That is through the service and sacrifice of others."
"I'm reminded of the observation of Hillel, that first-century Hebrew scholar who wrote 'If I am only for myself, what am I?'" Jacobs said. "Well, if you're only for yourself, you're probably Donald Trump."
"Or the observation, almost as poignantly, of John Stewart Mill, who wrote about war," he continued. "Trump ought to like him, because he was something of an individualist and a libertarian, who wrote that 'a man for whom nothing is more important than his own safety is a miserable creature, who is made free and kept free by better men than he.'"
Indeed and well said. Trump is a miserable creature who has zero respect for our military veterans, no love for our country, and nothing but contempt for our values.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that Trump is a disgrace who is unfit to be Commander-in-Chief — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

"Even CNN" and news media has to admit they are the main reason why we have had more Republican President's in the last 40 years. (Reagan, Bushes and Trump)
And they want Trump again
