Again, he went after a Gold Star Family.

[boston bean]

He disgraced a POWs service to his country (John McCain).

He tried to put a drunken doctor in charge at the VA.

It rained and he couldn’t go to a cemetery in France to pay respects to the fallen on Veterans Day.

He again in the USA stayed at the White House because it rained instead of paying respects at Alrlington.

He insulted the widow if the fallen soldier after the ambush in Niger.

He uses troops at the holidays to score political points claiming an invasion when nothing of the sort is happening.

He has not visited the troops serving overseas.

Who the fuck would be surprised he would attack an Admiral who lead the SEALS in finding and killing the most wanted man who killed over 3000 Americans on September, 11th 2001.

Please media put it all together for the stupid masses so they cannot deny to themselves what a fucking piece of shit their President is.

ETA: I keep remembering and adding to the list the shit he has done and said about our military.

[JHan]

1. why don't they understand this yet?

[MustLoveBeagles]

3. Willful ignorance

They don't want to understand. They won't let pesky things like facts change their minds.

[JHan]

9. sticking to their narratives big time.

[Garrett78]

7. Because he's also said and done horribly racist and sexist things...

...and mocked a person with a disability. And they absolutely adore him for it. He's made them feel like their racism and sexism is perfectly fine.

I'm going to keep saying it, there is no viable Republican Party without racism and sexism. Period.

[JHan]

8. ++++

[Farmer-Rick]

37. The right wing has so taken up the cause of billionaires and the uber rich .01%

that if they told the truth of their agenda (which most people suspect anyway), no one would vote for them except a pathetically small group.

So, to get people to vote for them and to distract from the fact that billionaires and the uber rich .01% are stealing Americans blind, they support the most vile ideology in order to attract voters. They pick the most common hate mongering issues because no one else would support such vile people. And since the American rich are supportive of such awfulness, it gives it legitimize and spreads the hate.

If we took away their vast stolen fortunes, then we would have far less racists and sexists.

[srobertss]

25. Interesting research explores their bubble...

I heard Yochai Benkler, coauthor of Network Propaganda, on the Majority Report. They analyzed millions of stories, Twitter messages, and Facebook posts and discovered that the right makes very few references to media outside of their right wing sphere, but the left references a wide range of media. I think we knew this, but it’s interesting to hear research that supports it.

I don’t think I could stomach it, but I’d be interested to see what reality felt like listening only to Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, and reading Daily Caller and Breitbart. I’ve decided Trump supporters are like Flat Earthers. They seem to perversely enjoy the negative attention they get from the media and they are about as interested in information. Meaning, no interest in information. I would have no impulse to try to persuade flat earthers, so maybe I can transfer that attitude to Trump supporters. Except for one little snag, flat earthers have no political power. Still, I can practice that shift in perspective. Maybe it will reduce the grief and outrage.

[machoneman]

28. Demorats can generally see/hear both side and then form opinions. Wingers only listen to RW sites...

and generally accept, without any introspection, any propaganda which is 80-90% of what they talk about. My gal's ND based parents are a great example of how Fox and other winger media have infected their thoughts (all things Democratic are bad). Yet, she gets Medicare and SS and more government provided services!

Arrghhhh!

[catbyte]

2. Well, to be fair, you really didn't expect Il Douche to go out in the rain, did you? After all,

how he looks is always the most important thing. Can't risk being humiliated by a bad camera angle.


[IMG][/IMG]

[boston bean]

4. That is frightening and I presume what it is the reality of the orange bouffant.

[catbyte]

6. It is horrifying, isn't it? I also found this that explains his "do." I also remember reading that

when he and Melania are together he makes her do his hair. I'd run out of the room screaming, I don't care how many gold plated toilets we had. No. Freaking. Way.

[IMG][/IMG]

[boston bean]

10. Oh Lordy. I did not need a visual instruction!!

[catbyte]

11. sorry...

[jayschool2013]

33. Like this

[catbyte]

35. ...

[malaise]

5. Thank you

It's unbearable

[TheBlackAdder]

30. Trump is trying to take that away from Obama's legacy too--that OBL was killed on his watch.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

12. It's too bad that his bet with Vince McMahon didn't go the other way.

Because then, Vince would have shaved trmp's head. Now THAT would be worth the pay-per-view price.

[Blue_true]

13. McCraven was not responsible for finding Bin Laden, that was the CIA's job.

McCraven was responsible for executing any military raids on locations that the CIA identified, which he did.

Please DON'T propagate the lie that Trump is telling about the man, blaming him for every aspect of the hunt for Bin Laden, when he was not involved in that hunt, he just provided a hammer when needed.

The people at the CIA and NSA should be fucking livid about Trump's comment that it took too long to find Bin Laden, so should George Bush.

[boston bean]

14. Oh ffs I am not propagating one god damned thing for trump.

[lastlib]

20. GWB: "I don't know where he is. I don't worry about him."

Remember that? George Fucking Bush has NOTHING to be livid about. I am convinced that he DELIBERATELY let OBL escape at Tora Bora, then held up the search for him, so as to have him as a bogeyman to drum up fear for the GO-Fuckin'-Pee.

[Blue_true]

23. Maybe.

Bush certainly didn't look for him.

[Ford_Prefect]

38. Bush's friends inside Pakistani Intel coordinated with OBL.

Shrub didn't need to know something that might later embarrass him. He only needed to be sure his pals knew it and could deliver the information when required.

When it became advantageous to pass that same info along to the next US President it was leaked to the appropriate agency. So much the better to arrange US funding for certain factions within Pakistan.

[Blue_true]

40. Look, I am insulted by your conjecture.

It makes President Obama look like he did little to find the bastard, AND it insults the CIA operatives that spent two long years looking for him after President Obama restarted their unit. Plus, it insults the 11 CIA operatives, including the Mom of several kids who were blown up after they started getting close.

Fact. For whatever his reason, Bush sat on his ass relative to finding Bin Laden. President Obama reconstituted the unit hunting him in 2009 after taking office, and despite a major setback in early 2011, they found the bastard and then McCraven's Seals killed his ass.

[Ford_Prefect]

44. Nothing I wrote disputes what you refer to or the later actions taken to find OBL.

I don't know how you leap to the judgment that I impugn either Obama or the CIA group who identified OBL's location.
I commented on behavior by Bush et al, and by ISI (Pakistani Intel agency). The relationship between factions of ISI and OBL is well documented. Manipulation of the West, and the CIA in particular, by ISI and other elements of Pakistan's government to suit their agenda of regional power began prior to the cold war era and continues to this day.

[Totally Tunsie]

15. HOW did we end up with this loathesome creature?

Is he even human? What did we do to deserve this horror?

My first and last thought every day is "Oh crap, he's still alive."

I told a friend last year that if I ever received a diagnosis of two weeks to live, I'd take one for the team and head to Wash. DC "to take care of a matter". There was an instance a couple of months later when a woman drove her SUV into a security barrier outside the Capitol...my friend called to make sure it wasn't me!

[3catwoman3]

26. 'My first and last thought every day is "Oh crap, he's still alive." '

My first and last thought every day is "Oh crap, he's still alive." I understand what you said to your friend, and how funny that she checked to see if you had actually tried to act on your fantasy.

I am stuck in denial and disbelief.

[yuiyoshida]

16. He will probably give himself

The Presidential Medal of Freedom because he probably thinks he deserves it...

[jmowreader]

22. And he'll hold it up when they come to take him into custody

"See this Presidential Medal of Freedom? That means I can't be put in jail for any reason. I could even shoot someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue and not get in trouble for it."

"No, Mr. President. You're thinking of a get-out-of-jail-free card. That isn't one."

[Pa-Kid]

24. Well if you ask him

he says he gets an A+ for his job as president if you ask me it a F- He is the worst president this nation has ever had and hopefully we don't get someone who is even worse than he is in the future. Given how bad the Republican Party has become that could easily happen.

[erlewyne]

17. He is the Republican ideal.

If they are so proud, why don't they speak for him
instead of making laws to CYA (cover your ass).

[47of74]

19. Lincoln or Eisenhower would've died of shame if they saw what this orange fuck would do to the GOP

[George II]

18. He was too busy making phone calls to visit Arlington National Cemetery this year...

....(only 2.8 miles from the White House) and then lied about going to Arlington last year on Veterans' Day, which he didn't.

[kimbutgar]

21. The dumbasses in the military will continue to support him

As long as Fox, Hannity and Limbaugh are on armed forces radio they will never hear these attacks from the so called potus of red states.

My husband has a nephew who hadn’t gotten his disability check and blames President Obama still to this day for wrecking the Verterans administration. Even though he got that disability when Obama was president and been getting paid until recently. He thinks the orange maggot is the greatest president ever in his lifetime. Because he lives in Arizona and only watches fox and listens to right wing radio.

[Totally Tunsie]

27. Yeah, and the hoardes followed Jim Jones to Guyana also.

Jones had his Kool Aid. tRump will have his Orange Tang.

Some people have heads so empty they can't even rattle. No wonder Survivor Producer Mark Burnett is a tRump associate. We must "Outwit, Outlast, Outplay." We WILL survive!

[machoneman]

29. How many Wingers you know get SS, Medicare, Medicaid or other Federal services?

Really, and how often do they slam the Democrats?

Just askin......

[JaneQPublic]

31. Another One: He said some combat troops got PTSD because they couldn't "handle it."

In the video, he certainly seems to suggest "strong" service members could handle and didn't get PTSD, but the weak ones ended up with PTSD.

[Wounded Bear]

39. Channeling his inner Patton, I guess...

and he's kind of like Patton, with all of the assholiness but none of the military skill.

[Achilleaze]

43. The republican misleader is pissing on our active troops with that slur

Who the hell would follow the lead of this insulting republican draft dodger, who apparently has no respect for our troops.

[niyad]

32. a serious question"

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100211422574


open letter to every veteran, every active duty military who support the draft dodger in chief:
With your support for a man whose daddy's money got him FIVE deferments (for BONE SPURS, no kidding!), who demonstrated nothing but contempt for the military (his military prep school harder than boot camp, he knew more than the generals, etc., etc.), who is using the military as a political punching bag, you have absolutely NO moral standing to EVER say anything about draft dodgers, conscientious objectors, peace activists, etc.

You have clearly placed some bizarre political ideology above the country you swore an oath to protect, so FUCK YOU. You disgrace the uniforms you wore, or are wearing, you are hypocrites of the first order. GO TO HELL.

You are no different in hypocrisy than the so-called christian evangelicals, who ignore the sexual predator in chief's revolting misogyny and hatred for women, claiming that his immorality is beside the point in prosecuting their bizarre agendas. They have no claim to talk about anyone's morals, EVER.

both groups of you are disgusting and disgraceful, deplorable and despicable.

May you receive everything you deserve.

[duforsure]

34. Don't forget he in the oval office gave the russians top classified information

Outing someone helping us by infiltrating ISIS , which his exposing him was giving aide to the enemy, russia, and he knew it, and probably caused harm to that person , but hurt us with it. He didn't care about this country doing that.

[OMGWTF]

36. My liberal USCG son is surrounded by MAGAts at his base

He will show them mainstream news articles about the latest ways Trump and ilk have fked over the military and all he hears back is "Fake news!" When he was in the USCG reserves, everyone was liberal now they're all Trumptards.

[tclambert]

41. Again I must remind people that he did salute a North Korean general.

He showed respect to somebody's military.

I'll bet he's very respectful to Russian generals as well.

[SpezelEd]

42. Disrespect

He had bone spurs, and was unable to serve. Every time he thanks a veteran for their service I view it as an insult.... and why more veterans of his age group don't understand how little he actually respects them is stunning.

He doesn't give a crap about Christmas, Merry Christmas, Ha.
