Trump is commander of unpatriotism

Dear Sir

President Donald Trump’s recklessness, incompetence, compulsive lying, and skulduggery spread the coronavirus pandemic in the US, which he called a hoax; and now we know he is Commander-Of-Unpatriotism.

The Atlantic magazine reported Trump denigrated dead US soldiers. In 2018 Trump did not visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in France to honor our dead WWI soldiers. He said “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” He said 1,800 US Marines who died in the Battle of Belleau Wood were “suckers”. The Atlantic article was corroborated by Fox News, AP, NY Times, and Washington Post.

As a former Navy enlisted and Navy officer (“not for self but for country”), and with family members in wars from the Civil War to the Iraqi War, I am disgusted with Trump’s unhinged comments. My wife’s father, Alton Jones, and uncle, Howard Jones, were Marines who fought at Belleau Wood.

Trump called Senator John McCain a “loser” because he was a POW in Vietnam. This is similar language he used to describe dead WWI US soldiers. Unpatriotic Trump got five draft deferrals during the Vietnam War.

Trump undermined our military by accusing Pentagon officers of primary loyalty to defense contractors.
