Trump on PTSD and the military
Oct 3, 2016, 12:58 PM

“When you talk about the mental health problems,” he said, “when people come back from war and combat and they see things that maybe a lot of the folks in the room have seen many times over and you’re strong and you can handle it, but a lot of people can’t handle it.” -D.J.T.
So, if you can't handle it, you're not strong? I've know a few buddies of mine that would probably disagree with him on that one.

Here is what you should know about PTSD

Combat Vets are blowing their brains out at an alarming rate and many (according to other combat vets, Dr.'s, etc) say they don't seek help because they think they should be "tough". So yea, saying the exact thing that most people say prevents combat vets from seeking proper medical attention is kind of stupid, but I'm certain you won't see it that way.

He's obviously just trying to channel Patton

But seriously, you should know by now that people don't care what Trump says or does.

If they didn't care when he said he admires

soldiers who "weren't captured," then they won't care about this.
Or maybe they do care...they just suppress the fact that they care.

People didn't care. The dude's instinct just seems to be to insult whomever or whatever he thinks is an obstacle to him.

I don't so much mind this...

Because I don't think he was trying to be malicious (like the McCain comments). I think he just doesn't understand what he's talking about very much in this case. He used the wrong words.

Then he shouldn't speak, much less apply for the job of Commander in Chief.
