International Trump skips WW I cemetery visit....due to wet weather.

[usmctanker242]

Get the fuck out of here with all this bullshit. He didn't go and that's silly but who fucking cares? You think Trump hates the troops now because he didn't go? Get a grip and move on with your life...unfucking real how far people will go to bash on this guy.

Note: USMC veteran with 4 tours of combat. I couldn't give a single flying fuck that the president didn't attend a ceremony for veterans. Just like I didn't give a single flying fuck that Obama wasn't at Arlington for Veterans Day for certain years. People on BOTH SIDES need to get off their high horse and quit pretending that every single move a president makes is somehow a slight to others.

I'm going to say it.. Trump needs to lose weight.

Do you know how much we are spending to fly the President and his wife over to Paris? The purpose of this trip was to commemorate the end of WWI and he skipped part of it because of rain.

If you are going to spend tax payers money to travel and attend an event you better damn believe you will be criticized if you don’t go due to “light rain”...

Agreed,on this Remembrance Day I would like to thank you for your service.

You are smart enough to know that he didn't go there simply for a single event. There is no way in hell that I believe you personally, deep down, give a single flying fuck about money being spent to protect the president during his travels. Perhaps a better "Plan B" alternative should have been available, but we don't know for sure what's going on and perhaps it wasn't feasible. Others have talked that by the time a decision was made he would have been late.... then the headlines would be about how horrible he is for disrespecting veterans and showing up late.

Lets put this petty stuff to bed and move on to things which are actually important. This is 100% a non-issue and nobody really, deep down, gives a single flying fuck and they know it. Just more "outrage porn" and it's pretty silly that people are falling for the drama.

There was a plan B. The motorcade that John Kelly was riding in. It’s a 50 mile ride and other leaders such as Macron and Merkel made the trip.

You want to believe Trump had no travel options but he had one and chose to not go. It was an event to a cemetery dedicated TO and FOR US soldiers who died in WWI and others leaders went and Trump didn’t. Even Trudeau braved the rain to greet Canadian veterans at a battlefield (Vimy Ridge).

How'd you feel about Trumps "I like soldiers who dont get caprured"?

No loaded question, legitimately curious on that.

 

[JohnnySagebrush]

I don’t care if he went or not. It’s a silly issue, IMO, and never for a second have I thought that Trump has any respect for the military or really any concept of service, selflessness, or history.

It was a shitty comment but I don't think he meant it as people took it...it was obvious he was trying to give Jon McCain some shit and it probably sounded good in his head at the time. I'm very coarse when it comes to people whining about veterans or disparaging us...we're supposed to be thicker skinned than the general population.

These include everything from mechanical issues with key vehicles in the motorcade to unforeseen route problems to actionable threat intelligence to scheduling issues. Well before a decision to use the motorcade or not is made, routes have to be mapped and inspected in detail with deep coordination with local police. Even objects that could conceal potential threats (mailboxes, trash cans, manhole covers etc.) need to be removed or sealed along the motorcade's proposed path and alternate escape routes have to be figured out as well. And once again, due to the length of this voyage, in particular, we don't even know if there was a motorcade option for certain at this time or why that option wasn't executed if there was.

I know the leftist scumbags won’t read this but there’s a lot more that goes into protecting the president than just shoving him in a limo with a few motorcycles around it.

Seems like a dumb thing to get upset about. The weather made a heli flight potentially dangerous? At least he was there for the leaders' ceremony. May didn't even bother.

You missed the point entirely...this is about hypocrisy.

This fucking pussy, cries about people kneeling, saying ita disrespectful and all this bullahit...yet this fucking pussy doesn't go to pay respects to fallen soldiers because of rain.

Then we have people like u saying "who cares".....but have a meltdown because football man doesn't stand during the anthem.

Inb4 u say that u dont give a shit about anthem..might be true but I know a lot of cunts in this thread were cryimg about the anthem but not this.

Does your feeble little mind understand now?

 

[Spoken]

It’s been fun noticing folks who got annoyed by SNL jokes about a soldier defend trump. Hypocrisy and ideology go hand in hand

 

[Strychnine]

I've been to the cemetery at Belleau Wood and I was humbled by the sheer sanctity of that hallowed ground. A little water didn't stop me either.

I would go in the rain just to see that monument. Stunning work.

This all could have been avoided if the president had access to some sort of ground based automated travel machine. If only there was some way for him to use France's roads in such a manner as to be faster than walking, because we know he'll have a pulmonary episode after 200 yards.

You're pretty much a POS as a human, but did you actually read ANYTHING involving this situation? Do you think the US President can just move around freely in a foreign country at his whim? His schedule and mode of transport are dictated to him and scouted out weeks in advance. It's already been stated MANY TIMES, in this thread, that by the time he could have gotten there in a motorcade he would have been late. Do you think he's not going there at all? Do you think he's just washing his hands and giggling about it? Get out here with your manufactured outrage.

Football players has nothing to do with weather dictating the movements of a president on foreign soil. Why do you feel the need to bring the NFL and that fuckery into this conversation?

You sound like you want to suck Trump off
