    Navy combat pilot. Would be the first of those in the administration since HW.

    Why would this ever be an asset for the presidency? It’s completely unrelated to the skills involved and doesn’t demonstrate any particular merit of bravery or understanding the costs of war. I don’t particularly want someone whose chosen role in warfare was comfortably dropping bombs on people they couldn’t even see.

      Some people would say that when you are commander in chief it’s good tha5 you have military experience. So far, JD Vance is the only person with such experience.

      Didn’t you see the movie Independency Day? Clearly it could be a huge asset for a US President.
