Trump dodged it “legally” as in by buying his way out of it.

It was an unwise war fought for all the wrong reasons — and Trump’s avoidance of the conflict is one of the few actions he has taken in his life that I do not criticize (even if I do mock him for his imaginary “bone spurs”). Our brother escaped the conflict by having a high draft number but although we were poor, I know that our father would have maneuvered to keep him out of Vietnam (Dad was a major in the Army reserves).
