Fallen soldiers just wanted to get out of their dead town with no opportunities for them and have a stable interesting job. They never cared about Iran and never expected to die for a rapists ego. It’s a final insult to their memory and their grieving families for trump to lie about them.

However given a century of military history, anyone signing up for US military service ought to expect high probability of dying in a very stupid war far away from home.

"Our client dictator is getting little too uppity" or one persons ego, stupid both.

Final insult? Pfffft.
There is no bottom of the barrel for that orange thing so I'm sure there's loads more insults and disrespect from the child rapist about all this.

Hell, the blob will probably start up a donation event to 'help the families of the fallen' when the war finally ends for the final final time finally...then pocket 99% of the cash.

Literal war criminal terrorists lol. Wanting to get out of your shit hole town isn't a good excuse to go overseas to continue the American tradition of killing brown children.
