Yesterday was Memorial Day and as usual Donny had lots to say……on the day we are suppose to remember our fallen heroes Donny went off the rails about Biden and other stuff that had little to do with our dead.
“Happy Memorial Day!” President Trump wrote on Monday morning. A bit later came the fiery elaboration, reports USA Today: “Happy Memorial Day to all, including the scum that spent the last four years trying to destroy our country through warped radical left minds,” Trump wrote in an all-caps post. He also blasted former President Biden as “incompetent” because of his border policies, which he says continue to be helped by “USA hating judges that is sick, and very dangerous for our country.”
Providing some context to the criticism, the Hill notes that a federal judge on Friday demanded that the White House facilitate the return of a third deported man—after complaining that the deportation “lacked any semblance of due process.” In his Memorial Day post, Trump described such judges as “monsters who want our country to go to hell.” He ended by promising that “America will soon be safe and great again!” Trump will speak later Monday at Arlington.
I worry that Memorial Day is personal to a smaller and smaller number of Americans. As a national community, Americans may no longer have the ability to collectively remember and honor shared sacrifice, because the sacrifice is not shared. The all-volunteer force created a military that is self-selecting. The wars of 9/11 created many veterans who are self-regarding and condescending to those who haven’t served in the military. A 2020 National Opinion Research Center survey found that a full 60 percent of post-9/11 veterans “agreed” or “strongly agreed” that the eligible Americans who did not volunteer to serve during wartime should feel guilty, compared to just 43 percent of older veterans and 22 percent of civilians. That is dangerous for the country.
At times, it is as though Americans compete to see who can be the most bombastically patriotic in remembering their war dead. Remembrance should be a solemn acknowledgment of the tragedy of war and the nobility in serving one’s country in its armed forces.
The day is not the time to air some idiotic political bullshit….but that never stopped the moron in the WH.
I Read, I Write, You Know
“lego ergo scribo”
Trump’s speech was disgusting, and proves that he really does believe he can say or do anything and face no consequences. The real monster within him is showing itself, and it’s worse than anyone imagined. He is setting the scene for the dictatorship to be implemented.
Best wishes, Pete.
Yep and he is working hard to make it happen chuq
I am so freaking weary of Trump and his 3 year old brain…Im now seeing so many people insisting that Biden had dementia and was failing rapidly. I know he was a quiet, soft spoken man, and if he were struggling, it would not have shown. Also, if he were truly in that state he would not have been looking out, but rather inward. All the dementia ridden people I’ve known were more concerned with their own selves than with anyone else.
One of the things dementia riddled people do is shred everyone in sight, to bolster themselves up. Run down the neighbors, their kids, their spouse, the cat in the hat. They also change the ‘channels’ so that they get the credit by blaming someone else. That is Mr. Trump. What they never realize is how easily they get used by others.
There is a wealth of reports that agree with you. chuq
The entire comment from him was sickening, and the fact he didn’t even stay around to shake our soldiers’ hands to thank them for our service – lied to their faces then ran off for some $$$ golf with donors…a disgrace every single day. There is ZERO defense for his actions
I agree but there are still idiots that will defend him and his antics. chuq
Yes, nothing he says or does will ever be questioned…that’s why I enjoy your ongoing series of reports on the abuse, corruption, dishonor and more…otherwise it becomes normalized for everyone and then others begin to follow in his footsteps and the guard rails are off for all
Thank you for the kind words….I shall continue as long as I am capable…..chuq
Political remarks inappropriate for Memoral Day speech.
I agree. chuq
Donny’s remarks are always inappropriate. But then you knew that =)
Sadly way too many do not see it….and they accept lies as fact….truly pathetic. chuq
