(note: my very first Reddit comment) Liz and her family were offered refuge in Canada when it began to look like London would be bombed but they all refused to go. They all visited injured troops and as soon as she became of age, Liz signed up and served as a mechanic and driver. Say what you will about the Royals living off the British taxpayers, but at least they do THEIR part when it matters.
Speaking as someone that spent a couple decades in the military, this is not a good tactic. This same thing could be said about President Obama's family or President Clinton's family.
Also, serving in the military doesn't make one overly special as a person. I've known a few assholes that probably deserved to be in jail that prospered somewhat while they were in. I can imagine a couple people in that photo would turn out the same way even in uniform. The Trump family members (not all, obviously) can be rightfully critiqued by what they've done more than what they haven't done.

I wonder what Trump's family's kids will think of him when they grow up and stumble upon all the shit he's said and done.

That said, "bone spurs"? Really?
