Veterans released their verdict on Donald Trump, and it’s not pretty.

54% of veterans believe that in combat Donald Trump would not have their back. 55% believe that Trump would only look after himself, and a staggering 66% of veterans believe that Trump would not win any medals of valor, let alone the Medal of Honor that he has disparaged. A simple look at the facts demonstrates why veterans are abandoning Trump.

Trump calls veterans “suckers and losers.”

He invited members of the Taliban to camp David. He has repeatedly praised the military leadership of Nazi Germany.

No former commander in chief has shown this much disrespect for those who risk their lives for our country. There is one veteran, however, who continues to stand by Trump’s side no matter what he does. Congressman Brian Mast is the chairman of Veterans for Trump. He recently attended an unauthorized campaign photo op for President Trump at Arlington National Cemetery.

Brian Mast has not leveled a single criticism against Donald Trump for draft dodging, but the same Brian Mast has disgracefully attacked Governor Tim Walz and his service record, accusing him of failing to maintain an “unwavering sense of duty.” Brian Mast gives his endorsement to a man who sees our heroes who fought and died for our nation as nothing more than political pawns. Brian Mast pledged to defend our constitution as a Soldier and as a member of Congress.

But he participated in the coup on January 6th by voting to overturn the election.

Perhaps, Brian, you should spend less time attacking Governor Walz and reflect on the record of the crooked, cowardly criminal pulling your strings. I’m running for Congress in Florida’s 21st Congressional District against Brian Mast and Donald Trump's radical Project 2025 agenda. I’m proud to be fighting for our nation's service members, not just to respect those who have fallen fighting for our nation, but to support our veterans and active duty service members by keeping them out of combat as much as possible and by bringing them home safely.

I’m running for Congress because we have to end this failed, dying order of Donald Trump and his cronies like Brian Mast...+ Comments,
