Just Another Sucker: A Conversation

 

Just Another Sucker: A Conversation

Peter Schultz

 

            When I happened to mention that I had served in the Army, the young man said: “Thank you for your service.”

 

            I said: “Oh, don’t thank me. I was just another sucker going off to fight a war that made the rich richer and the nation worse off.”

 

            He said: “Oh, so you’re a Trump supporter.”

 

            I said: “Never!”

 

            He said; “Why not?”

 

            I said: “Because Trump is just another old rich guy telling poorer young people to go fight in wars that will make Trump and other rich people richer.”
