In 1940, Kennedy attempted to enter the army's Officer Candidate School, but was medically disqualified due to his chronic lower back problems. He exercised for months to straighten his back. On September 24, 1941, with the help of the director of the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI)—who was the former naval attaché to Joseph Kennedy—Kennedy joined the United States Naval Reserve.
President Kennedy was was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal and the Purple Heart Medal.
When later asked how he became a war hero, Kennedy joked: "It was easy. They cut my PT boat in half."
[Obviously Mr. Trump wouldn't have liked him because any captain that loses his ship is NOT the type of person to be admired.]
President Johnson was a LTCdr in the USN during WWII.
PS - Did you know that there were actually wars that the US was engaged in between "The Civil War" and "The Vietnam War"?
Can you provide us with a list of the top ten accomplishments of a Trump administration?
lol...I think the fact that you see condemning white supremacy as requiring caving to "mob pressure" is part of the problem here.
Did President Kennedy or Johnson ever go to Vietnam?
Trump should have took Nathan Phillips with him.Phillips would have loved to see Vietnam too.
Speaking of hypocrisy! Why haven't any of you condemned the attacks of Christians in Africa by muslims?
Trump has condemned white supremacy. Trump is not going to cave to pressure from radicals on the left.
Nine out of 10- or very bad things which hurts this nation and our people.
The positive one - fighting Isis in the Middle East - was attained by others- not Trump.
Wow, so things that have brought this nation out of the never ending blah nature of the Obama presidency economically, put more in families pockets, raised wages, and made it easier to start, and be successful at starting a business are in your mind "bad for the country".... So, I guess we can put you down as one of those hoping America fails....

Trump seems to refuse to condemn white supremacists. This from the gut who went crazy claiming Obama refused to say "Islamic terrorists."It would clearly be a wise move on his part not to condemn white supremacists if they were a big part of his base. Obviously they are not! Even if he did condemn them do you really think they would vote Democrat? Trump isn't going to cave to this mob pressure to condemn or apologize.
Did President Kennedy or Johnson ever go to Vietnam?

While you guy's argue about meaningless statistics I will focus on the bottom line. Trump gets things done. This country is getting back to it's greatness.
