"Suckers and losers"? I don't think so.

 

Mr. trump, the man pictured with this post was not a loser. He loved his country and his family, and he served to protect the freedoms that we enjoy. He was a part of my family, and we miss him very much.  

If there is anyone reading this who doesn't believe that Mr. trump did in fact say all the nasty and disparaging things about the men and women who serve this country, I have a nice antique bell here in Philadelphia with a slight crack on the side to sell you. 

Of course he said it. And we know he said these things because he said them publicly about John McCain. Can you imagine a man who is afraid of peaceful protesters outside of the White House calling men and women who put their lives on the line for this country, "losers and suckers"? We can add liar as well as coward to describe him because he had the audacity to say that he didn't call John McCain a loser. 



Below is an excerpt from the Jeffrey Goldberg story.

"When President Donald Trump canceled a visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018, he blamed rain for the last-minute decision, saying that “the helicopter couldn’t fly” and that the Secret Service wouldn’t drive him there. Neither claim was true.

Trump rejected the idea of the visit because he feared his hair would become disheveled in the rain, and because he did not believe it important to honor American war dead, according to four people with firsthand knowledge of the discussion that day. In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning of the scheduled visit, Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed......There was no precedent in American politics for the expression of this sort of contempt, but the performatively patriotic Trump did no damage to his candidacy by attacking McCain in this manner. Nor did he set his campaign back by attacking the parents of Humayun Khan, an Army captain who was killed in Iraq in 2004.

Trump remained fixated on McCain, one of the few prominent Republicans to continue criticizing him after he won the nomination. When McCain died, in August 2018, Trump told his senior staff, according to three sources with direct knowledge of this event, “We’re not going to support that loser’s funeral,” and he became furious, according to witnesses, when he saw flags lowered to half-staff. “What the fuck are we doing that for? Guy was a fucking loser,” the president told aides. Trump was not invited to McCain’s funeral. (These sources, and others quoted in this article, spoke on condition of anonymity. The White House did not return earlier calls for comment, but Alyssa Farah, a White House spokesperson, emailed me this statement shortly after this story was posted: “This report is false. President Trump holds the military in the highest regard."

Sure he does. 

Now, even Fox News is backing up Goldberg's story. 

The suckers aren't our brave men and women who put their lives on the line for our country, the suckers are the folks who line up behind this con man. 

Hey, I will even throw in a cheese steak with that antique bell for you.

"This very much includes those bosses they follow orders from, and more importantly, the police unions."

All of the bosses in this sad tale are democrat city and state governments.

But Trump!

Weather was bad, with ceiling too low for helicopter. Drive would have put too much of a burden on French security. Even Bolden said so.

So much bullshit, since every other important head of state made the jaunt.

If that was true I'd say fire them and replace them with people who don't condone and support the wholesale slaughter of the citizens the police are being paid to protect.

But that's not how it works and we both know that. How it works is city governments get elected to solve policing problems and try to enact reforms that rein in out of control officers and groups of officers, and fire the worst of them.
Then the police unions step in and overturn most disciplinary actions, get fired officers reinstated, and generally support the police behavior that cost NYC $68 million in payouts to the victims of said behavior last year.

But the looters did $100,000 damage there. Or about four hours and 23 minutes worth of police misconduct.

So Kemp stole the election just as we said he was doing at the time.
Abrams lost by 55,000 votes, and of the more than 300,000 names that were purged from the rolls, a study discovered that 198,351 Georgia voters were wrongly purged, a 63.3% error rate.
State SOSs shouldn't be allowed to oversee their own runs for higher office. Why anyone needs to be told this is anyone's guess.

Looters and rioters have done billions of dollars of damage this year.

And let me guess, believing this lie makes you want to vote for Fergus...

The property damage across the country from the riots is in the billions.

The extra cost for dealing with riots in Minneapolis alone is over $500 million. Rebuilding costs just for that city are estimated at between $300 and $400 million.

Over 30 people have been killed in the rioting.

That makes me damn sure I'm not voting for the party that orchestrated all of this.

Mike, it's a conditioned response, like salivating when we smell food. They just can't help it. LOL!

Well. you got part of it right. I was laughing. But I never use the expression "orange man bad." I tell it like it is; Trump is a demon from hell, so I call him, "the demon".

Tally of covid damage from Sturgis.

That makes me damn sure I'm not voting for the party that orchestrated all of this.

Glad you finally noticed drumpf's participation in fomenting riots at peaceful demonstrations.

The Tea Party was white identity politics from the right. I am not sure what exactly it is you are talking about.

The Rittenhouse joke doesn't cut it, since he is too young to order a drink. Typical wingnut humor.
