    Seriously here....the President of the United States flies to France while they celebrate the defeat of Germany in WWI. He then avoids going to this event.....WHY?

    He is on the side of militaristic fascism.

    Triggered?

    Spin anything and everything into more hate Trump BS?

    Here are the facts:

    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-france-memorial-idUSKCN1NF0NU

    But light steady rain and a low cloud ceiling prevented his helicopter from traveling to the site.

    “(Their attendance) has been canceled due to scheduling and logistical difficulties caused by the weather,” the White House said in a statement, adding that a delegation lead by Chief of Staff John Kelly, a retired general, went instead.
    I know the President believes he can do anything he sets his mind to, but it seems he hasn't figured out how to control the weather.

    Maybe the left can get Pete Davidson to say a few words about wounded and fallen veterans.

    The right is triggered: Arrangement easily could have been made to get the President to the site in plenty of time. Trump is a disgrace.

    Macron is a disgrace. Macron think that paying lip service to fallen US soldiers who've twice rescued the effeminate French forces from Germany changes what he said earlier? I wouldn't have dignified Macron's photo op by attending either.

    Maybe his bone spurs were playing up?
    We shouldn't jump to conclusions about him not understanding the importance of these memorials and his lack of statesmanship.

    When the left's propaganda ministry directs it's followers to believe the President doesn't care about veterans, there are lots of idiots who follow those orders.

    Or maybe just hail a cab and skedaddle to the ceremony, telling everyone to hold their horses, he's on his way?

    The simple minded are clearly easy to sway to any dog whistle blown for them.

    Indeed, the Trump base will believe any nonsense that excuses their Dear Leader.

    We have millions of living US vets who have Trump's full attention. The bones that Macron is tending aren't going anywhere, and Trump can pay his respects at Le Pens inauguration.

    How many miles by road is Rethondes, France, from Orly Airport? Do you know? Any clue how long it would take for a motorcade to travel that distance?

    Do you know why the President is in France? Do you know what the ceremony he couldn't attend was about?

    Yes, the simple minded are easy to sway by the dog whistles they are trained to bark at.

    Why did Trump diss the memorial?



      • He is upset the Germans lost.
      • He has a Tummy Ache.
      • He has more important things to do.
      • He is a Nazi sympathizer.
    Bone spurs?

    Yes, really, full attention. The question being "why" he didn't attend, I can't answer with any certainty. I did offer "why" I personally would not have. Macron is anti-American, and Oh So chummy with Frau Chancellor Merkel who's predecessors killed all those US soldiers. Now Macron says France will align itself with Germany to form an army to defend against the US? F*ck that little privileged liberal prick. Macron "aligning" with Germany? Yeah ... surrender's what the French are best at. :truce:

    Or, look into it, learn the facts, and then understandably reject the lies and deceit the hate Trump brigades are trained to accept.

    So you don't know what this ceremony the President couldn't make it time involved?

    Of course not, because the left's propaganda ministry left that part out.
