BuzzFeed - He has a habit of making this comparison. Aaron Josefczyk / Reuters Donald Trump has repeatedly compared the risks of dating to serving in war. In 1993, Trump, who received multiple draft deferments, told Howard Stern if you are dating, "you're the equivalent of a soldier going over to Vietnam." In 1997, he told Stern that dating was his "own personal Vietnam." In 2004, Trump adapted his comparison to modern times, updating his reference by likening dating to serving in Iraq. Trump was speaking to Playboy magazine about dating in the age of AIDS when he made the comment. "Was there a time when you worried about AIDS because of all you'd done?" asked Playboy. "There was, but I got tested," said Trump. "I think it's hard for young kids today. It's a whole different thing. I tell my sons just to get a nice girlfriend and be happy, because it's dangerous out there. It's Vietnam. I guess now we can say it's Iraq?same deal, right?"
