Harris surrogate Democrat Senator Tina Smith (MN) ran to CNN to criticize JD Vance for accusing Tim Walz of ‘stolen valor’ over his military service.
“We can make sure those weapons of war, that I carried in war, are only carried in war,” Tim Walz previously said.
The truth is Walz never deployed into a combat area.
JD Vance blasted Tim Walz for dropping out of the Army after his unit was deployed to Iraq.
“Tim Walz was asked by his country to go to Iraq, he dropped out of the Army and allowed his unit to go without him. I think that’s shameful,” Vance said.
CNN’s Jim Acosta gently corrected Senator Smith after she said she isn’t aware of any military service that JD Vance served.
“I’m not sure of any military service that JD Vance has served,” Tina Smith said.
JD Vance served in the US Marines and deployed to Iraq.
