Why do liberals care more about helping refugees than they do for veterans?

Why are the ones that we are least obligated to care about get prioritization over the people who served our country?

Liberals and conservatives all treat veterans like shit and then use them for empty talking points just like you are doing right now. It's not like Trump or Bush's years in government were a golden age for veterans. Whatever dingbat you cheer for is just as bad.

Failure to help refugees creates situations that make more wars and more veterans. There's a somewhat craven self-interest there. This ain't altruism, even if its politically sold like it.

@CountScrofula I can't say that you're wrong. At least, as far as politicians go. You've got the guys like Donald Trump talking trash about American soldiers, and then you get people glorifying them for going through hell without spending a dime on therapy for the poor slobs.
