Why would anyone care about how many veterans they've fired when trump already called them all losers and suckers. This is a man who posed in front of their graves with a thumbs up and a smile.

I've only ever seen one face.

I'm going to need some context on that thought. A skim of his wiki doesn't mention mass firings or veteran's issues. Truman served and saw combat in WWI as an artillery captain. As president he desegregated the army and dropped nukes on Japan. He also oversaw the Berlin airlift and part of the Korean war of 1950-1953.

They may be referring to the fact that by ending WW2 Truman cost all of the fighters their jobs? I'm hoping the comment was tongue-in-cheek.

The US military was reduced by 10.5 million people due to the end of WW2.

That's not firing a veteran, that's creating one

I mean, I believe it. But, source?

Are they firing veterans at a higher rate proportional to the people they've fired than any other administration in history?
