People Are Appalled At A Comment Trump Just Made About The Military

Trump was discussing a conversation he had with a family friend who had served two tours in the Middle East.

He said the man told him that the "enemy" had taken some of the U.S.' best equipment, including state-of-the-art armored vehicles. Trump went on to describe why he thinks these vehicles are so crucial to the war effort.

"If a bomb goes off, our wounded warriors, instead of losing their legs, their arms, worse, they're okay," he said. "They go for a little ride upward, and they come down. The best stuff, all gone. Taken by the enemy. Taken by the enemy."

Soltz told BuzzFeed News that there were many casualties of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars who died while in an armored vehicle, and for Trump to imply otherwise shows he has a "complete lack of knowledge about the military."

"For him to say something like he just said means he has no idea what is going on in Iraq and Afghanistan," he said.

Soltz said it is important to note that while Americans have improved armored vehicle technology, our enemies are also improving their technology to attack the vehicles. He said Trump's comments show he is not equipped to be commander-in-chief.

"He's cavalier with other peoples lives and when it benefits him he will sacrifice American lives," he said.
