...then how did Kelly and Dunford manage to get there? Magic?Let's get it straight, shall we? Trump was only willing to go to the ceremony if it wasn't too much trouble. Ten minutes in a helicopter. When rain turned 10 minutes in a helicopter into 90 minutes in a car, HE COULDN'T BE BOTHERED to drag his lazy ass out of the hotel.
I never want to hear the POS-POTUS say another word about 'the U.S. Military' again. Before leaving for Europe he trashed Obama for 'disrespecting the U.S. Military,' over the SEQUESTER which was thought up by CONGRESS, not Obama. This was the 100th anniversary of the end of WWI. The war to end all wars. And this knucklehead couldn't even be bothered to show up, for fear of a BAD HAIR day. What an embarrassment and humiliation for the United States. Trump just lost any and all credibility to criticize ANYBODY over their level of respect for the Military.

There is not enough Provigil in the world to bite through whatever they must give him to get though an international flight.

now know they should nuke DC during a predictable rainstorm?
Seems like a massive strategic fail moment. Like Trump does.

The next time he tweets about an NFL player kneeling during the anthem.

Narcissist Trump cant bear attending functions that arent all about him. As Commander in Chief, this is his fucking job but he couldnt be bothered.

There's also some House GOP members in France that he met with too
Something is going on, imo
