A Memorial Day Message from the former POTUS

He won't feel bad about it. He uses out of context, crap sources to live in his asinine echo chamber.

 

A person is either pro America or pro Trump. You can't be both.

 

Your premise is backwards:

A person is either pro America or pro Biden. Support of Biden is to support a dictator and a tyrant who is a threat to the republic, the same republic when you say the Pledge of Allegiance.

 

No, that's Trump. You saying the equivalent of 'I know you are, but what am I?' doesn't change reality.

 

That's your reality, not the majority opinion being polled just over 5 months out from what looks to be a Trump landslide.

 

I really feel good about this thread now that common sense and truth have been introduced to offset lies and distortions. Did anybody really believe a Trump supporter wouldn't shovel your crapola back at you which was posted last night, see post #12? Well, now you know different.

 

He didn’t make my Memorial Day about him.

Apparently he only had that effect on his intended target, to wit: the TDS infected. Lol!

 

so it means nothing to you that djt thinks people killed in war defending our freedom are suckers and losers?

 

this should bite Vance in MAGA world, hope he bleeds when it does. he is a scumbag of the highest order, knowing that the stuff he spouts is BS and detrimental to the country but does it so just to further his own power grab. at least djt is too mentally ill to fully understand just how bad he is. Vance, Gaetz, MTG and the other sycophants, not so much

MAGA ally JD Vance called out for 'praising' John Kelly’s story about son 'killed in action in Afghanistan' (msn.com)

"JD Vance is praising a Memorial Day speech by Ret. Marine Corps Gen. John Kelly — the same John Kelly who confirmed on the record that Trump repeatedly disparaged US servicemembers," The Daily Beast's Roger Sollenberger wrote via X (formerly Twitter). "Vance also served in the Marines."

 

Trump aired his own grievances in his Memorial Day post. How is that not making the day about him?

 

Just like my dog licking his nuts on Memorial Day doesn't make MD about him...or Paramount network airing Yellowstone rerun marathons every holiday about Yellowstone... or HLN airing Forensic Files marathon on MD made my MD about Forensic Files.... or the NHL having a playoff game made MD about hockey....

 

This prediction will age about as well as all the “red tsunami” predictions you confidently made in 2022 before quickly disappearing out of embarrassment after it didn’t happen. Lol.

 

Spas out bro! Whooo-hooo!

 

If we're talking Joe Schmoe, I'd agree. But look at all the other messages from current and former Commanders in Chief. Or posts from other American political leaders from Monday. How many of them air their own personal grievances on Memorial Day? How many are self aware enough to make the day about our fallen soldiers instead, and at least pause the personal stuff until later?

 

Or that not every fart by Trump (or even Doh! Biden for that matter) defines him (or Doh! Biden).

Sometimes, a fart is just a fart...

 

Whatever. It's a multiple choice question comprised of 2 options. You can't isolate one and measure in a vacuum.

Inevitably, it comes down to a totality on 1, vs a totality of the other.

Making a huge stink over on guy's fart just doesn't move the needle much.

Just makes y'all look petty and disingenuous.

 

There are two options right now for Commander-in-Chief. And the question is, do you want want that respects the ultimate sacrifice our fallen soldiers made for our freedoms? Or one that makes Memorial Day all about his own grievances because he's a narcissist that lacks self awareness?

 

I don't see much distinction between kneeling during the anthem played before a football game (which the right turned into a HUGE culture war issue about disrespecting our troops) and this very self-centered message from Trump. In fact, it's pretty easy to make the case that Trump's message is directly more disrespectful. I don't know where you personally stood on kneeling during the anthem - for all I know you looked at it the same way as you are Trump's message, but that certainly wasn't the case for the majority of right-leaning folks.
