He completed the two month Ranger school but never served in a Ranger battalion. From what I understand he can call himself a Ranger but a better description is Ranger qualified. Sounds like the Army needs to draw the distinction because even they can’t agree on the terms.
I think Creepy leftist moron Tom Arnold has a reading comprehension problem. 😂😂😂
I don’t know what Tom Cotton said but to tender this bullshit picture as evidence is laughable........nowhere in this picture does Tom Cotton say he was an Army Ranger. 😂😂😂
Tom Cotton of Arkansas has accrued a resume tailor-made for a Republican politician: He leapt from a small-town Arkansas cattle farm to Harvard University and then Harvard Law School; he left a leading New York firm to join the military after George W. Bush's re-election; he was discharged after nearly eight years and two war-zone deployments as an Army captain and decorated hero — including two commendation medals, a Bronze Star and a Ranger tab.
In his first run for Congress, Cotton leaned heavily on his military service, claiming to have been "a U.S. Army Ranger in Iraq and Afghanistan," and, in a campaign ad, to have "volunteered to be an Army Ranger." In reality, Cotton was never part of the 75th Ranger Regiment, the elite unit that plans and conducts joint special military operations as part of the U.S. Army Special Operations Command.
Rather, Cotton attended the Ranger School, a two-month-long, small-unit tactical infantry course that literally anyone in the military is eligible attend. Soldiers who complete the course earn the right to wear the Ranger tab — a small arch that reads "Ranger" — but in the eyes of the military, that does not make them an actual Army Ranger.
So I read the article. Decorated combat vet. Better than me that's for sure.
I think stolen valor is a real charcter defect. I think Cotton should clean some things up and not benefit from any confusion
But as always when the left launches a smear, wait for the rest

That's a fair take. But let's be honest - if that were Biden's kid, he'd be pig roasted for it here.

Hunter’s time in the Navy Reserve did not go as planned and is best forgotten.

The picture seems inauthentic. Cotton is a smart dude, and "Afganistan" is misspelled. If it is authentic, it needs cleaning up as another post suggests. Reading doesn't just involve sounding out words, unless you're a fucking retard. It means reading for comprehension and understanding, including understanding of the writer's intent. So if you read under the words "Battle Tested Leader", the words "volunteered to be an Army Ranger" and "Fought in Iraq and Afghanistan" and you take away anything other than he fought in Afghanistan and Iraq as an Army Ranger, you yourself are a retard.
You should have limited your post to "I don't know."
Guy volunteers after 9/11, serves two combat tours, earns a Bronze Star, completes Ranger school, and some vague wording over it from some random flyer is an issue?

Maybe you should learn a little reading comprehension education moron. I said “I DON’T KNOW ABOUT........WHAT HE SAID” Einstein. Talk about trying to give people the wrong impression about what a person means.........
The point remains nowhere did he say he was an Army Ranger. To say that he did is a .........FUCKING LIE.
Tom Arnold lied. Fuck him. He is a left wing nutjob.

I've driven a Ranger. Does that count?
