A Biden supporting reporter recently called President Trump Bone Spurs during a live interview. He was referring to the President receiving draft deferrals during the Vietnam War. It’s true he received 4 student draft deferments while an undergraduate at the Wharton School... 
of the U of Penn after a med exam confirmed he had injuries resulting in bone spurs in his feet.BUT, what the reporter did not say was that former VP also received draft deferrals during the Vietnam War. Joe Biden got 5 draft deferments after med exams showed that he had asthma.
Both had been active in sports before receiving the deferrals.
The fair & balanced truth is that neither served in the military. Neither should be referred to as draft dodgers. Medical Doctors confirmed that both were medically disqualified for service.

To put those unable to perform their duties in service would hamper the ability to accomplish mission, and could also place other service members in danger.
