    He was in the Marines, they aren’t known for being particularly bright outside of maybe the specialists, NCOs, and COs. They ain’t called America’s greatest crayon eaters for nothing, but hey since the 80s or so theyve diversified their eating habits with MRE wrappers and chemical heaters.

    I grew up round Vietnam era army mud boots, I will take any opportunity to bash the Marines.

      So then he’s not bright enough to serve in Congress. Either he knew, which is bad, or he was too stupid to know, which is also bad.

        Would really depend on if he has improved since then, I’m from the opposite side of the county so I don’t have too much horse in this race so I am too ignorant to say if he has improved or not. Youd have to do actual research on him and frankly speaking I don’t give a damn I just want to make haha Marines stupid jokes.

        Why is it that if he’s a dumb young 20 he can’t gain any intelligence? Why is the line I keep seeing from people “well he didn’t know at the time, and that’s damning enough”, like, do you know anyone who has ever signed up for the military at 18-25 to bd ‘smart’ or informed?
