- though some people are very thick

[Still, self-praise stinks, and in traitortrump's case stinks badly, - so the thick may still vote for trump, at least, just for listening to turmp they get somewhat punished for it].

Any other president would have expressed his/her gratitude to the soldiers for their service and enormous sacrifice. What a truly pathetic human being.
