re: #268 Hecuba’s daughter
No one would have cared. Vietnam was a deeply unpopular war that ended over 40 years ago. The fact that someone lied to escape serving would not be shocking and would never have affected the 2016 results, especially given that Trump was a Republican. Trump’s disparaged McCain during the campaign and that didn’t harm him; why would his evading the draft 50 years ago make any difference?
while i agree with this - that no one would have cared, and what else was written above, i’d make one small point
it isn’t just that ‘someone lied’
it’s that
1 - someone lied by
2 - paying someone else to lie
3 - and that the second ‘someone’ was a doctor
4 - presumably licensed
and no, likely wouldnt have changed a thing - more’s the pity
