    Deserves its own thread

    The Atlantic: “When President Trump canceled a visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018, he blamed rain for the last-minute decision, saying that ‘the helicopter couldn’t fly’ and that the Secret Service wouldn’t drive him there. Neither claim was true.”

    “Trump rejected the idea of the visit because he feared his hair would become disheveled in the rain, and because he did not believe it important to honor American war dead, according to four people with firsthand knowledge of the discussion that day.”

    “In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning of the scheduled visit, Trump said, ‘Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.’ In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as ‘suckers’ for getting killed.”

    Imagine if Obama had said "nobody wants to see amputee servicemen at a military parade"?

    I can't support anyone that craps on our Veterans...he craps on one...he craps on all while doing such when he himself never served and avoided the draft 5x.

    • Can it get worst ?
    Yes, it does get worst. He then wants to use the military for a prop and against peaceful protesters for that prop with the world watching. Oh wait, we then learn that Putin (anti-American that hates Democracy and wants to destroy Democracy) has a bounty out on the heads of our troops abroad.

    He meets with Putin several times including phone calls...doesn't mention the bounty to Putin. Doesn't question that idiot about it. Just like when Trump initially called the Coronavirus a Hoax...Trump calls the bounty story a Hoax too.

    “I never called John a loser and swear on whatever, or whoever, I was asked to swear on, that I never called our great fallen soldiers anything other than HEROES.”

    — President Trump, denying on Twitter tonight that he ever called Sen. John McCain a loser.

    “He was a war hero because he was captured… I like people who weren’t captured… He lost and let us down. I’ve never liked him as much after that. I don’t like losers.”

    — Trump, quoted by NPR, talking about McCain in July 2015.
