Just woke up and read "Trump cancels visit because of Rain"

Please tell me that headline was taken from the Onion, and not even
Trump would cancel a visit to a WW1 memorial at US cemetery.

Was that the official excuse?????

My extended family fought in every war from Vietnam back to WWI. I felt physically sick seeing him represent us at all, but even more sickened that he would so disrespect our fighting dead of WWI and WWII by refusing to leave Paris to attend their grave site in the rain.

He deserves nothing EVER but contempt.

The house landed on one of his siblings and the other was done in by water. He's probably quaking in his boots.

I'm not sure why Putin's still around.

BTW, does this remind anyone else of the time at a G7 summit when Trump rode in a golf cart while everyone else walked? Such a snowflake!
