    Lol! at all of this, including the implied premise, but especially the notion of picking a POTUS based on how delicately they treated MD, vs say, oh idk... existing RECORDS of their respective presidencies...

    LMAO!

    Anything, but THAT!!!

    Trump is the truest example I can think of when it comes to "partisan politics".
    I was and am devastated that a responsible citizen, such as Haley, was not nominated.

    Like others, I am shocked that the GOP still wants to support this type of heinous individual.

    I can only comment, that if a Democrat - Obama, Biden, Clinton - any of them, demonstrated so many character flaws,
    there is NO WAY I would vote for a person like that, irregardless of party.

    It just demonstrates how the voting public has gotten off the "rational rails" to the insane "my party no matter what" rails.

    Sad - and he just might get re-elected if recent polls are believable.

    Donald Trump calling someone "human scum" is projection in a nutshell.

    A big part of being President is being Commander-in-Chief. I would think how a POTUS treats both active military and vets, and the honored fallen would go a long way in how someone views their record as President? Or is national security and our troops not that important?

    Trump making Memorial Day all about him also goes a long way to show his own narcissism. He's never about what is best for others. He's all about himself, and nobody else. His record shows this, as does the fact most of his closest advisors from his past Presidency are now voting against him.

    Lol! They're ALL narcissists.

    Trump's MD mean tweet might have been ill conceived. Might been gawd awful even...

    But it's still just a tweet.

    Conversely, Doh! Biden's mighta been writ up by a poet laureate (we know he doesn't do his own work...), mighta been as beautiful as anything Maya Angelo ever wrote... great enough to make her proud!

    Still just a MD spiel, and still, vastly inconsequential, agsinst their respective presidential records.

    Spas on though...(lol!)

    It's still a free country.

    The fact that you don't see what's wrong with Trump's Memorial Day message is indicative of a lack of respect for our country and those who died in her service. Equally sad and unsurprising.

    Read the first 5 words of Trump's "tweet" again and then pretty much shut the (redacted) up.

    You are really going off the deep end today.

    Dear Leader didn’t want to be uncomfortable….

    “President Donald Trump could not attend a commemoration in France for U.S. soldiers and marines killed during World War One on Saturday because rain made it impossible to arrange transport, the White House said.

    Despite the light rain, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel held a moving ceremony in Compiegne, northeast of Paris, to mark the 100th anniversary of the signing of the World War One armistice.

    The last minute cancellation prompted widespread criticism on social media and from some officials in Britain and the United States that Trump had "dishonored" U.S. servicemen.

    “They died with their face to the foe and that pathetic inadequate @realDonaldTrump couldn't even defy the weather to pay his respects to the Fallen", Soames wrote on Twitter. (British member of parliament who is a grandson of former Prime Minister Winston Churchill).”

    I can not imagine supporting a creep with so much baggage.

    But he hugged a flag once so I guess that makes him a patriot. Ridiculous.

    no, it's not, it is representative of the persons mindset, even if you don't want to acknowledge that. If someone calls you a lowlife scum and not worth the air you consume because they wanted your parking spot and then they follow you around the store repeating such nonsense, do you think those are just words coming out of their mouth and they aren't really an ahole?

    So predictable: The GOP candidate for POTUS says something stupid, outrageous, or generally newsworthy ( because he is the GOP candidate for POTUS), it gets reported and discussed and suddenly it is TDS. If were just some rando posting on social media, no one would care. Find another card to play, that schtick has gotten old and is not accurate.
