    Default Former Marine Walks Out of Trump's State of the Union

    A former Marine and current Democratic congressman was among those who walked out of President Donald Trump's tense State of the Union address on Tuesday, afterwards accusing the commander-in-chief of neglecting America's military and maligning its service members.


    "I left the #SOTU after Trump—a draft dodger who has mocked Sen. John McCain, Gold Star families, and soldiers with traumatic brain injury—started talking about the good he has done for our military," Moulton wrote.

    Trump—who avoided the military draft five times during the Vietnam War, four because he was still in education and one for purported bone spurs in his feet—has attacked veterans and military families when they stand against him

    I guess this is a new thing now. Attend the SOTU, walk out then tweet about it.

    Why not just not attend to begin with?

    Good man.

    I listened to the whole thing. And the Democratic response. I wonder how many Trump fans can say that.

    And Trump pissed on the UCMJ by pardoning a rogue seal who published trophies of terrorists and had murdered multiple innocent civilians in war environment,
    according to seals who were witnesses against him, calling him a psychopath.

    You already know going in to a SOTU that if you are a member of the party opposite of the President you are going to disagree with things they say or propose. So what's the point of walking out during the speech to tweet your disagreement when you can do so after the speech?

    If they knew in advance that it was going to be just another Trump Rally- THEY SHOULD HAVE JUST NOT SHOWN UP!

    But, they didn't know that in advance-

    More and more vets and serving personnel are turning their backs on Trump.
    Russian trolls and their supporters go on Ignore, automatically: no second chance.

    Yes, stagecraft. Just like "Hey, Look at me, I am conducting the National Anthem and refusing to put my hand on my heart."
