   JD Vance Mocked For Claiming Trump Embodies Marines'   
   'Always Faithful'   
   Motto "I really do think that Donald Trump   
   exemplifies that motto," the   
   Ohio senator said. David Moye

   Give JD Vance credit for at least one thing: He is   
   truly trying to make   
   Donald Trump look good to voters.   
      
   Too bad the president’s own behavior keeps getting in   
   the way.   
      
   Case in point: During a campaign rally in New   
   Kensington, Pennsylvania, on   
   Thursday, the Ohio senator and former Marine praised   
   the former president   
   using the Marine Corps motto of “Semper Fidelis” - or   
   “always faithful.”   
      
   “I honor every member of every branch of our armed   
   forces, but the one   
   thing that I think the Marines really do well is we   
   have the best motto,”   
   Vance said to the crowd. “I’m biased with Semper   
   Fidelis — always   
   faithful, right?”   
      
   Vance elaborated:   
      
       “You hear Marines say it all the time, Semper Fi,   
   and to me, what it   
       means is that Marines are always faithful to our   
   country. ...   
      
       “I want to expound upon it because I really do   
   think that Donald Trump   
       exemplifies that motto because his government and   
   under his   
       leadership, the United States was always faithful   
   to the veterans of   
       this country.   
      
       “That’s something for us to be proud of. His   
   record and his vision is   
       a vision of always being faithful to those who   
   put on the uniform.”   
      
   You can see Vance’s comments below.   
      
   Of course, any Trump vice presidential nominee is   
   expected to praise him,   
   but Vance’s thirst trap claims for the GOP’s fearless   
   leader set him up   
   for internet mockery.   
      
   People tend to smirk when the “Semper Fidelis” motto   
   is used in connection   
   with a guy who allegedly dodged the draft, was   
   accused of cheating on all   
   of his wives, and reportedly referred to soldiers who   
   died in combat as   
   “losers” and “suckers.”   
      
   Still, folks on X, formerly Twitter, couldn’t help   
   but mock Vance’s   
   comments.   
      
       JD Vance desecrated Marine's moto: Semper Fidelis   
   by using it to   
       describe a man who dodged draft to serve his   
   country, cheated on his 3   
       wives, slept with a porn star while his wive was   
   pregnant with his   
       son, lied to the American people and continues to   
   put down America.

       Called our military “suckers and losers.”   
      
       Insulted Gold Star families.   
      
       Said of POW John McCain that he prefers those who   
   “didn’t get   
       captured.”   
      
       Didn’t want disabled amputee vets to be at his   
   events because it makes   
       him look bad.   
      
       But sure, JV Vance…whatever you say.

       JD Vance says as a Marine he is to be faithful to   
   all members of our   
       Armed Forces, then proceeds to trash the 24 year   
   service of Tim Walz.   
      
       I guess Semper Fi doesn't actually mean much to   
   JD Vance

       I wouldn’t call plotting an attempted coup and   
   supporting an   
       insurrection, faithful to his oath of office as   
   President. ?? —

       HOLY CRAP! JD Vance has absolutely no honor.   
   Trump hardly embodies   
       "Semper Fidelis." He...   
      
       ?? Called soldiers "losers and suckers"   
       ?? Insulted (and fired) Generals who worked for   
   him (Mattis, Kelly,   
       McMaster, Milley) ?? Refused to visit cemetery in   
   France

       Donald didn’t serve. Stolen valor words from JD   
   Vance.
