To the editor:

How could anyone vote for Donald Trump when they know what he said about our military veterans?

In 2017 at Arlington National Cemetery, he claimed John McCain was not a hero, he was a loser for getting shot down and captured.

In 2018, he was in France for the anniversary of the end of World War I. He would not visit the American cemetery because it was “filled with suckers” who got killed.

This is a man who asked for and got several deferments, as did President Joe Biden. Trump deferred five times (as did Biden), once for bad feet and four for college attendance.

This is a man who denigrates women in lewd and unprintable fashion.
