The Hits Keep Coming: Smoking Gun Reports Donald Trump Was A Draft Dodger

» 151 comments

So far Donald Trump has been creating buzz about whether or not he’ll run for president in 2012 by having made looking into Barack Obama‘s past – specifically, his birth certificate and college transcripts – his major focal points. But perhaps people in glass luxury hotels shouldn’t throw stones. Trump’s financial records and tax returns have already been a topic of discussion among those in the media, and Rand Paul recently demanded that Trump show his “original long-form certificate of Republican registration.” And, now, some digging around into Trump’s own past has revealed that the man who might maybe sort of possibly make a bid for President may have actively avoided serving his country. Keep in mind: Trump has made his own proposed plans regarding military action abundantly clear and also formerly attended the New York Military Academy.

This week, Trump discussed why he did not fight in the Vietnam War with local Fox affiliate WNYW:

I actually got lucky because I had a very high draft number. I’ll never forget, that was an amazing period of time in my life.

I was going to the Wharton School of Finance, and I was watching as they did the draft numbers and I got a very, very high number and those numbers never got up to.

What Trump didn’t mention, however, was that he actively avoided serving. According to The Smoking Gun, the business mogul’s Selective Service records reveal that by the time his draft number – 356 – was drawn during the December 1, 1969 draft lottery, Trump had received four student deferments and one medical deferment. These can be seen in a document on file with the National Archives and Records Administration.

The Smoking Gun explains:

Trump obtained his first two Class 2-S student deferments in June 1964 and December 1965, when he was student at Fordham University in the Bronx. He was briefly reclassified as 1-A–or “available for military service”–in late-November 1966, but that classification was switched back to 2-S three weeks later.

Another 2-S deferment is dated January 16, 1968, just months before his graduation from UPenn (to which he transferred following his sophomore year at Fordham).

Following his UPenn graduation, Trump–no longer qualified for a 2-S deferment–was again briefly classified as available for service on July 9. However, three months later, on October 15, his classification was switched to 1-Y, which was given to men deemed qualified for military service “only in time of national emergency.”

The 1-Y classification came a month after Trump underwent an “Armed Forces Physical Examination,” according to Selective Service records, which note the results of the exam as “DISQ.” While the military records do not further detail why Trump was granted the 1-Y deferment, a 1992 biography of the businessman by journalist Wayne Barrett reported that Trump received a medical deferment following the September 17, 1968 exam.

Now. Who wants to participate in a The Last Word drinking game organized around what Lawrence O’Donnell might have to say about this? One shot for each look of unbridled glee, two shots for each mention of NBC, and an exploded liver every time he mentions that it’s not like Trump is going to run anyway.

    So as W, Cheney, Limbaugh, Wolfowitz, Kristol and the rest of the warmongering phonies (almost).

  • skyfet

    Phonies who were born with silver spoon in their mouth can find a way to avoid Military services, while the poor had no choice except if they were in higher education. Yet these phonies become Politicians, loud mouth on radio or an editor, talk tough for more wars, with other peoples children doing the fighting.

    Donald Trump Was A Draft Dodger (Now he is talking how militarily tough he is!) Here are the documents showing his deferments which rich kids used to avoid the horrible War In Vietnam.

  • http://www.loudcitizen.org CitizenK

    I think a better term for Trump is “Death Dodger,” and I hand it to him for getting a great education and staying alive. Obama got a million dollar education, and what does he have to show for it? Doesn’t know shit about economics, business, or the Constitution. Double dumb-ass on Obama.

  • TillieGlockenspiel

    Ummmm, Clinton, and Senator Blumenthal LIED about HIS “service” (and don’t tell me he “misspoke” himself). Scratch a man over the age of 55 and you’ll find that most in political life did NOT serve in Viet Nam. And, don’t bring up Gore (journalist job- protected group during Viet Nam) and Kerry (we all know about him).

  • TillieGlockenspiel

    If we’re talking hypocrisy, can we talk about Bill Ayers and how the Left accords him deference?

  • TfT

    What a hoot! Trump, still an undeclared candidate, has his background checked, double checked….going back years and years and years, and yet we want to see hehimself’s college records and we are deemed racists.

    It is just too damn funny. and quite sickening.

    Liberal media whores (word approved by NOW and the ladies of the view) are working overtime to undermine anyone who might ask their cult leader a hard question.

    Unbelievable how the media will prostitute themselves for this guy.

    And is mediaite still silent on the story about banning a journo because he actually reported on an Obama protest????

    well, i guess it takes one to know one. and since you didn’t condemn our first draft-dodging, foreign soil protesting, dooby smoking, whore chasing president Bill Clinton i don’t know where you have any room to condemn this one.

  • http://www.loudcitizen.org CitizenK

    Is anyone alleging that Trump got deferments illegally, or by lying/fudging the truth, or using undue influence?

    I’ve heard nothing to indicate that he ever did. We know that deferments for education and health happened all the time, by many people — not just the wealthy or privileged.

    Who has information to the contrary? Anyone?

    What does he have to show for it? He’s president of the United States, and unlike Trump had to work hard for it rather than just inheriting it from his dad. I think that shows a lot more merit.

    As for being a “death dodger”, it is always legitimate to ask about this since the commander in chief has to send troops in harms way. However, people forget draft dodgers are not exclusive to Republicans, so let’s not be hypocrites about it.

  • http://www.loudcitizen.org CitizenK

    Um, could you please tell me what Obama (peace be on him) ever “work hard” at, besides agitating people in Chicago and making the phoniest promises to get into office? Obama is a walking talking turd, and a truer word was never spoken. He’s also a lazy president, and Trump is calling him on it. Obama didn’t even publish anything when he was on the law review. Maybe he was too busy hanging around with all the right types of radical students.

    And are you really foolish enough to think Trump didn’t work hard for what he got? He may have received an inheritance, but he has worked hard every day of his life, both in school and business. Daddy didn’t hand him his fortune. He earned it. He has built a stunning empire.

    Obama has created ab-so-lute-ly NOTHING. NADA. ZIP. All he does is confiscate money via taxation, squander it, and destroy our country’s ability to create wealth.

    Where and when did Barry serve? Yet he has zero compunction sending our children off to their deaths.

    Hell at least Bush kicked ass and took names. Barry just puts them out handcuffed with asinine RoEs as targets. That is when he isn’t doing it illegally by attacking a country witout congressional approval.

    Bush, the war criminal, got AUMFs for both Afghanistan and Iraq by overwhelming bi-partisan votes.

    Barry, the chickenhawk crook and liar couldn’t even be bothered.

    Blumenthal LIED and was given a pass. Hardly what I would even “kindly” label “microscopic” investigation. So did Kerry and the ONLY folks to do any sort of investigating other than accepting anecdotal testimonials from like minded toadies was the Swift boaters and they were ostracized so bad by the media I doubt many folks will ever make that mistake again.

    Sorry…..but this attempt at equivalence is weak sauce.

    You seem like a decent enough sort……why can’t you folks ever own anything? Why is it always somebody else’s fault? Or why when sans a scapegoat is it either they do it first or do it more?

    I just don’t get it.

    Look, I get that you don’t like the president of the United States, you have every right to do so. But you are saying he never accomplished something, this is objectively a false statement. At the very least he has accomplished a list of things that a person would qualify as successful, principal among them getting elected as president.

    If you don’t think getting elected as president of the United States is an achievement unto itself, please let me know and the conversation is over right there. I have great love for my country and part of it means I greatly admire the office of the presidency, no matter who holds it and what party they belong to. We have a great system, that warts and all, works and the presidency is part of that.

    And are you really foolish enough to think Trump didn’t work hard for what he got? He may have received an inheritance, but he has worked hard every day of his life, both in school and business. Daddy didn’t hand him his fortune. He earned it. He has built a stunning empire.

    You know, I think you are right. We shouldn’t dismiss the work Trump has done to make money. But you can’t deny he is what he is because of his dad’s fortune. There’s nothing wrong with having a rich dad, heck I wouldn’t mind swapping inheritance with him, but you can’t just dismiss the fact that he was born into great wealth while most people are not.

    When comparing accomplishments, it is not hard to merit the person that didn’t come from an ultra rich background, you know, like Trump’s dad.

    Obama has created ab-so-lute-ly NOTHING. NADA. ZIP. All he does is confiscate money via taxation, squander it, and destroy our country’s ability to create wealth.

    You can’t separate the office of the presidency with your politics. I get that. But it still doesn’t mean that becoming president of the United States is a great accomplishment by itself.

    BTW I’m puzzled by the “confiscate money via taxation”, are you against taxes??? Do you hate all US presidents because none of them have ever said we shouldn’t collect taxes.

  • OxyCon

    As I’ve stated on numerous occasions, if you dare to criticize Obama, the media will swiftly work you over and give you the “Sarah Palin” treatment…the same media which STILL hasn’t vetted Obama will spare no effort to find damaging information on Obama’s opponents.

    I don’t see anything for me to “own”. I didn’t look up Trump’s draft status and it wasn’t done by a secret committee. Instead, a for-proft enterprise researched a question in hopes that it would generate traffic and it appears to have worked.

    I mean, why do you think “Fox & Friends” gave Trump a regular spot on the morning after his reality show? I’m sure it isn’t to selflessly promote his program on NBC in which Fox has no financial interest. It was because for a few weeks, he’d be good for traffic.

  • Republitarian

    Can someone please tell me in what year was Joe Biden drafted, and in what branch of service did he complete his service. But, it’s clear Biden served, right? If he didn’t, I’m SURE that there were stories written about his deferments too, correct?

  • angryviewer

    Unless my math is off, the draft lottery was a year and a half after Trump graduated from Penn, so I question his recollection of the day. However, Trump played well within the rules of avoiding service, albeit when the aid of an occasional well-written doctor’s note. Also, I wonder if all you sanctimonious commenters would be rushing off to war if military service was mandatory then or now. If you want us to pull out of Afghanistan, re-institute the draft.

    The bottom line is Trump whether Republican, democrat or even if we find he, like Barack, is a secret muslim is exactly what this country needs n a president at this place and time in our history.

    The left, right and everybody in between can ask whatever they like, The Donald will either produce the document, answer the question or tell the asking individual to go _____ him/her self.

    The ” real ” American people, non matter who spins it to the contrary are either all in, or intrigued enough to stay along for the ride a bit longer.

    Trump is not only Obama’s worse nightmare, but that of all Republican comers as well as the broad spectrum of the press.

    Donald Trump is a ” true ” American contender, against Barack that’s more of a gender bender, that can only mean one thing, that’s ” BOOM ” goes the Obama’s chances dynamite.

    Thanks to FOI act, we find Obama’s daddy (maybe) was a “slippery character” (so said Harvard) who was deported (thrown out) from the US. Seems HI was first, then even Harvard wanted him out. He was a bigamist with too many wives (Polygamy) and impregnating too many underage girls and abortions. Obama’s “Dreams Of My Father” was a fabricated bald faced lie by Obama.

    This technique is called “mixed raster content” compression, usually abriviated as MRC compression. You can read wikipedia for a description of XObjects and their compression algorithms or open up the PDF spec (long document) to see that it allows for this.

    The morons opening this in illustrator don’t even understand that these XObjects are not even layers in the first place, that’s how Adobe chose to interpret the XObject elements from PDF in Illustrator, separating them into “layers”.

    Please refute what I’m saying with technical details (I’ll give you a warning, this is my professional and Masters level academic area), or admit that you don’t know what you are talking about.

    Can Americans really depend on media honesty anymore? 99% of media outlets and personalities are proud political activists. When did the American media become a joke? Why don’t we have one professional journalist, who will publicly pound politically active journalists? The American media sucks and is an embarrassment.

Obimbo found out he’s subject to the same requirement to hold office as everyone else, didn’t he?! One man made this little inept man of yours cower like the little inept egomeniacal clown he is! I’ll bet he’s going to have to see psychologist’s for years when his inept butt is thrown out of office! I can see 2012 Alice, can you?

    Nice spin, but no, Obama got at least a small slam on that hand. But Trump has pride and if the poles still show him in the lead in a couple weeks, why should he back off? If going after Trump by main stream republican politicians and pundits becomes popular (and to be sure, Trump is an easy target) and the Donald gets pissed off, he knows there could be no bigger reality show than a third party run with Sarah. In 2012, if you are a conservative republican, you may see devastation.

    Graduates choosing public service jobs over those of the private sector deserve our admiration. But their choice is usually made because of their lack of ability to manage even a small convenience store. To correct this imbalance applicants for government jobs should have at least one years experience running a small business. Letting the mentally challenged work the counter of a fast food restaurant rather than servicing public sector needs makes good business sense.

    it makes no difference to the people. they either don’t see him as president ideologically or, which is more often the case, these people hate him so much for some reason they will go to any means to make their justification that he isn’t good enough to be our president.

    I don’t see anything for me to “own”. I didn’t look up Trump’s draft status and it wasn’t done by a secret committee. Instead, a for-proft enterprise researched a question in hopes that it would generate traffic and it appears to have worked. I mean, why do you think “Fox & Friends” gave Trump a regular spot on the morning after his reality show? I’m sure it isn’t to selflessly promote his program on NBC in which Fox has no financial interest. It was because for a few weeks, he’d be good for traffic.

    Still, nothing you say above goes remotely to answering anything I asked.

    WTF does it matter if somebody did the same bad thing as you? What does it matter if they did it more? Or first?

    Oh and when you aren’t doing one of the above…..you trot out this stuff above……”what”?????? “It wasn’t me!!!” “some nebulous third party did it”

    Whatever it is, it always boils down to the left NEVER taking responsibility for it’s fvck ups. People or actions.

Well Well Well…..Newt ran around on his wife and she was dying…….so and so did it first………that guy over there did it more.

    Let’s see if we understand liberal logic.

    Bill Clinton: It’s ok to dodge the draft.

    George W. Bush: Coward for serving in the National Guard.

    John Kerry: OMG! He’s a Vietnam vet, we have to love him.

    John McCain: Careful! The vietcong drove him crazy or “he lied about being tortured.”

    Obama: Military? Who cares? He went to Harvard! He’s a community organizer! He’s black! Let’s elect the bastard.

    So liberals, when is it ok to like or hate the military? You people seem all over the place.

He locked up all his personal records from his birth, medical, educational, financial records in Chicago, associations and political supporters and now finally the Federal Election Commission is auditing Obama’s funny money funds raised in 2008.

    DaTruth chooses to prevaricate using the ‘by ommission’ clause.

    From the ‘comparison section’ of that wikipeeing article:
    Just as tax avoidance is defined as reducing or eliminating one’s tax liability through legal means, draft avoidance is the elimination or mitigation of a potential conscript’s military service obligation through some lawful procedure. The term draft dodging is sometimes used more loosely (and to some inappropriately) to describe draft avoidance.

    So, by DaTruth’s logic, Nixon really WAS a convicted felon (like most repugnicans), since the only way he didn’t go to jail for watergate was his pardon by Ford; likewise, Carter pardoned those who went to Canada to avoid the draft, thus making their ‘dodging’ legal, ergo “avoidance” instead.

    The “story” of Obama’s birth, according to “Dreams”: Poor, but brilliant Kenyan goatherd comes to US college because of Kennedy, meets and marries beautiful Kansas girl who gives birth the future president of the United States. Brilliant father sadly must leave his wife and child in care of her parents while he goes to Harvard to get his Phd in Economics so that he can lead his country to wealth. Sadly, Doctor of Economics dies in car accident.

    The real story of Obama’s family: English-speaking Christian schooled brilliant Kenyan CLERK gets independent scholarship during the Eisenhower presidency to go to school in Hawaii, leaving Kenyan wife and two children back in home country. Meets Marxist sympathizing girl whose mother is in management at an Hawaiian bank. Girl gets pregnant and after baby is born, moves with her TWO WEEK OLD infant to Washington State to go to college. Father of child leaves Hawaii for Harvard BEFORE wife and child return to Hawaii. Officials at Harvard never bestow Phd on father, though he later represents himself as “Doctor” Obama. Officials at Harvard worried about his wife in Kenya and “wife” in Hawaii and calling him a “slippery” character, revoke his student status and the “brilliant” man is sent back to Nairobi.

    No, douchebag…by my logic, I actually use accepted definitions of the terminology, period. A deferment (which thousands of people got during this era) was in no way illegal, nor did it constitute hiding somewhere or fleeing the country. The fact that you have to rely upon some “loose” and admittedly inappropriate use of the terminology to make your pathetic case shows how weak your argument is. Try again?

    People won’t care if Trump was a draft dodger. They won’t care if he’s also a loser, or that he looks down on the average working stiff as being beneath him. As long as the Don has his long term birth certificate dangling from his shiftly little hands, they’ll think he’ll be a great president!

    How exactly did I do that? I’m sorry,but you sound like all the rest of the mental midgets on talk radio with you shallow hypocritical bs. You must be a birther, because after one of your lies and accusations are exposed as trash, you jump to the next one without even pausing for breath.

    LOL! You are sure creating a lot of hot air based upon nothing. Pretty good imagination you’ve got going for you. You know nothing about me, but create this whole picture of what I am, what I listen to, that I’m a “birther”, that I “jump from one accusation without pausing for breath”. LOL! That last part sounds an awful lot like you. Ever hear of projection?

    Do you realize that much anger will damage your organs? HPB, heart problems, suppressed immune systems, gastrointestinal problems such as irritable bowel syndrome and strokes, etc.

    Trump is your standard “tea” hypocrite. He will wiz in the corner and blame a liberal every time! Where are his taxes, where are his grades, how many bks? He is a pompous liar and grabs headlines by shock value, not fact value, but this is what the “teas” love!

    Is it just me or has the media already done more digging on Trump in two weeks than they ever did on Obama? And Trump hasn’t even declared his candidacy yet!

    Also, libereism … it’s called liberalism in English. Also, “Christ”, specially if you are a believer should be capitalized.

    it is amazing listening to a man say he will be abusive and frank in business dealings and runs when it comes to service to america.

    I am angry for Trump could be the reason why my relative went to Vietnam…now this fact is shamed-fully…three times and what medical problem did Trump have laziness

    Oh, and Charles Krauthammer, who has been paralyzed since he was 20, is a chickenhawk. Genius. Who needs Webster when you’ve got You Tube?

  • TillieGlockenspiel

    Alex, I do think that your headline needs revision. While the original definition of “draft dodger” might apply to Trump, Biden, Clinton, et al (and there are LOTS of politicos who fit into that category), the common usage for “draft dodger” for those of us who were sentient during the Viet Nam war meant males who left the country when their Selective Service numbers either were called or about to be called up.

  • TillieGlockenspiel

    Alex, I’m no Trump fan, but I do think you should apply the same standard to Dick Blumenthal, Bill Clinton and Joe Biden that you are applying to Trump.

    ………………………………………
    Same standard fair enough, but you could add all the gaffs from all three over the years (which have happened) and they would not add up to the last 2 months of Trumps hate, spin, lies and f-bombs! The “teas” should be insulted by Trump playing to their simple hate and lower IQs! Keep the hate alive!

    If your number was not called, YOU did not dodge the draft. You libs love to throw around the term “draft dodger” but you have to really dodge the draft. Bill Clinto was a REAL draft dodger.
    If you took an “Armed Forces Physical Exam” and did not pass you are NOT a draft dodger and you did not AVOID service.
    Libs love lying it is their favorite passtime. There should be a special draft for people calling others draft dodgers. They should be sent to the front lines without body armour.

    You are right on the draft dodger part 100%. However he does qualify as a Chickenhawk First Class because he now supports a pre-emptive war and chose not to serve when he could have.

    Alas my plutocratic friend.. The definition of chickenhawk is not from you tube however is from the official Chickenhawk Hall of Fame, in which you are correct about Krauthamer as I do not see his name listed. So you are batting 1 out of 154. That is not good.http://www.nhgazette.com/chickenhawks/

    A lot of people got student and medical deferments, so what? Obama has never served either and he is a lousy president so how is this going to make the Fool in the Oval Office look any better? The Fact is that Obama let people go to prison because of his Childish Refusal to show his BC,that shows Obama has not a thread of Honor or Integrity and he also was not raised in America, but went to muslim schools overseas, which is the reason Obama has no American Values about him, he was not raised as an American, but as a muslim, even though he says he isn’t, but he said from the beginning, if it comes down to the nitty gritty, he will stand with the muslims! That certainly doesn’t sound like he cares for America much, now, does it? Anyone who makes the Left nervous and makes them start talking crazy and grasping at straws shows that the person making them do that would be good for America! How stupid can the Left get anyway?

    If you got a true medical deferrmant,like Krauthammer ok. ( this does not include somebody with a cyst on their ass like Limbaugh).
    Oh,and by the way if their is a military draft under the new law the only student deferrmant this will apply to is a graduate in his final year of medical school. So mention military draft to all the warmongers and neocon chickenhawks and all you’ll see is ass and elbows and not a peep. “You guys go to war and fight. I’ll hold your coats.” Sad, isn’t it?

    It doesn’t matter how much your hero Allen West hates the president, dislikes his policies or anything else, Obama is still the Commander and Chief. West, being in the military for 22 years as he makes sure to remind everyone and an Officer to boot should have enough decency, integrity and values not to publicy call the President names in public.
    He stains the rest of our U.S. Army with this behavior and it’s no wonder West retired from the Army not under his conditions. And one more thing. What kind of nutjob would stand by the statement of just because he flew into military combat areas during the day justifies that Airforce One and everyone from the President to the cook on board should do the same? Just that statement alone shows you how this guy is detached from the real world. Sorry to break your bubble there billwitt but facts are facts.

    Sorry, don’t think West respects the man in the WH any more than the majority of Americans.

    Why should West respect him when he doesn’t respect our values?

    He was talking of the poor, in prison, etc.
    Then the king will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.
    35
    For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me,
    36
    naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.’
    37
    Then the righteous 16 will answer him and say, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink?
    38
    When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you?
    39
    When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?’
    40
    And the king will say to them in reply, ‘Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.’
    41
    17 Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
    42
    For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink,
    43
    a stranger and you gave me no welcome, naked and you gave me no clothing, ill and in prison, and you did not care for me.’
    44 Then they will answer and say, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or ill or in prison, and not minister to your needs?’
    45
    He will answer them, ‘Amen, I say to you, what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me.’
    46
    And these will go off to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

    How many of these have you done?

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but there was no draft during the years clinton&obama would have been drafted. Correct?
    Or did they have deferments other well-educated men were using to their own advantage?
