That whole "barely graduated" canard is what you call a "tell"houndawg wrote:Could have gotten out of it my ass. That would be career suicide for the son of an admiral who (barely) graduated from Annapolis.

However, saying something like Trump said about McCain being a POW back early during the Republican primaries should be disqualifying. You know, a guy who was not in the military and sought multiple deferments in order to avoid being drafted saying that about someone who could've gotten out of it but instead volunteered. Sensible people would have absolutely refused to vote for such a person.
But, unfortunately, we obviously have 10s of millions of people who are not sensible persons.
Only someone who doesn't know jack about the USNA repeats it
They don't have a "2.0" etched on their ring for nothing - every single middie I know (including two first cousins) "barely graduated"
