sucker | tega227

I am a retired airman. I joined the U. S. air force to have a somewhat choice in whatever job I would be assigned to do. Understand, this was during the time when there was a draft, and the air force did not draft like the other branches of service. Being Black, the jobs I could be placed in were limited but it was far more than the other branches of service. I served honorably and I grew into being an honorable man.

It never occurred to me that I was a loser and sucker for serving my country. Well, it is what it is, and I am a proud loser/sucker and would do it again. Without being in the military, I probably would not have prospered as much as I have and probably wouldn’t know as much as I know now. I know I would not have been to nor seen the many places around the world. If all of this has made me a loser and a sucker, so be it.

The ex-president made that comment and has repeated it many times. He dodged the draft and talked badly about all aspects of the military. He has said he knows more than the generals. If you were wounded, disabled, or died in the military, he dislikes you and don’t want to be near you. Protecting the country, fighting to maintain a democracy, and doing it willingly (there is no longer a draft), according to the ex-president, it makes all of us a loser and a sucker.

Then, as I look harder at the comments that ooze daily out his mouth (and in the middle of the night texts), I am glad I wasn’t in the military when he was president. Why? Not only would I have been a loser and sucker, but I would also have been treated far worse than I was when I was in the military. When I was in the military I was called racial names, given unfair bad reports, and everything else that the racist people could think of.

The ex-president does not like anyone that is not from a European White heritage. Don’t take my word, he said this and, at other times, alluded to it. Why would I want to protect a man and/or country that I know I don’t have a chance as a snowball in hell. Now he asks for my endorsement and vote for him to get back into office so that my benefits will get cut or entirely lost (not counting social security and other things). That is why I don’t understand why anyone that is not one hundred percent White would want him back in the White House. I do not understand why members of the military want him back when they know what he thinks of the military, and anything associated with the military. The members of the military that want him back must really be losers and suckers.

Yes, I was a member of the military, I retired, and I am proud to be a loser and sucker. I don’t regret it; I am happy I retired before he came upon the scene and became President. I pray to God that he remains an ex-president.

I have spent a lifetime of service to this country, under Presidents of both parties, and later served the communities with pleasure and honor. I never considered myself neither a “sucker” nor a “loser” and I have served with a smile on my face. I never asked for fame or fortune nor did I shun from the job to be done and ask why.

I, like many others before me and after me, come from a family of honorable servers that put their life on the line for God and country. Before me, there was the draft and I do not know of anyone that refused to serve or hid from the commitment of serving. I have friends that have died and friends that are wounded (medically and/or mentally). There is no one, that I am aware of, who have a frown on their face and have said they do not want to be a loser or sucker.

This President is tearing down the very principles that this country was built upon. He is doing the work that the enemies of this country want done. I can imagine the leaders of our enemy countries smiling knowing that a sucker/loser is doing their work for them. They are probably applauding the followers and those that will not verbally oppose him. They will do anything to keep him in power and further destroy our democratic way of life.

To be for him is to want further destruction of our way of life then on to the other countries that stand in their way. Country after country will weaken and fall just like we are weak and is quickly falling. Newspapers, magazines, radio, and television will be gone. The last nail is being hammered into the coffin of the Stars and Stripes, others will follow, and WE will be at fault for it. The supporters of this President will be shoulder-to-shoulder to blame.

I can not go to a cemetery and see the gravestone of the fallen and call them “losers” because I could have proudly been one of them. Every time I am at the Veteran’s Hospital and see the sick and crippled vets, I cannot turn my head and not want to be around them or see them. They, as I, are not “suckers”. I have never said, they have never said, “screw this country, screw this President”, we served because we wanted to serve, and we are proud of it.

If we are suckers and/or losers, let the President’s followers protect him and this country the way we did. Let them do the jobs we did and have a smile on their face. Let the President do one single job that we did, and others are presently doing. Let him lead by example or has his leading come down to lying, cheating, and dishonoring those that gave their all for our futures.

No, I am neither a loser nor a sucker and would proudly serve this country again if I could. I could have run out of the country or I could have gotten a medical excuse for the pleasure of not being called a “sucker” or a “loser”. I could have let others provide me with a safe and comfortable country so that I may possibly acquire a fortune because of those that did serve and became a “loser”, a “sucker”.
