VETS GET READY TO LOSE YOUR CARE & Pensions - GOP/Trump Ready To Dismantle VA And Vets HC.

Republicans are planning a blitzkrieg to destroy all our basic systems before anyone can stop them.

The American Legion, VFW, et al could have buried the GOP and that bastard Trump, but they remained silent and their members supported Trump for all practical purposes. Now you will likely be put in a privatized system where vets care is triaged based on profits. The regular health care system CANNOT POSSIBLY help these vets and they will be abandoned.

Vets care in the future will be based on what it costs to help and maintain wounded and disabled vets. Vets with really special needs will be put in the general population to fend for themselves because the private system will be a profit model system that will just let people die based on cost to save them.

WHERE THE HELL IS THE THE OUTRAGE. WE SHOULD BE STORMING GOPPERS LOCAL OFFICES AND SHUTTING THEM DOWN FOR EVEN DARING TO PURSUE THESE POLICIES.

The American Legion is the worst, judging by the members I know. Disabled American Veterans seems good.

All health care systems are at risk. Vets care is for a lifetime responsibility.

But some are so wrapped up in phony patriotism that they have no judgment.

The Chickenhawk Republicans love to wear their little flag pins and pretend they are patriotic, then as sneakily as they can they screw our veterans so they can make their own fat cats fatter.

Now that the Repubs have a bona fide Draft & Tax Dodger in Chief - Comrade Casino - they are all set to be led to further disgraceful infamy as they sock it to our veterans.
