So Trump could not be bothered for a 1.5 hour drive to honor fallen Marines? Everyone else went! Lol

Well he hasn't been to and bases in Afghanistan or Iraq either, so his disrespect is not a suprise.

By the way, if the Secret Service says no go, it's no go. Period. Originally Posted by Lantern2814

Also Trump wanted a military parade showing off our military might. We do not do tjat here in this country because wr are not some third world power that needs those kind of chest beating ceremonies.
Keep spinning WTF, keep spinning. Now you claim we don't do ceremonies like this, you know, honoring the 100 year anniversary of the end of WW1, yet you demand Trump participate in that very type of ceremony in a foreign country. The hypocrisy is obvious.

Next Trump came to Paris and planned on doing this but it seems the weather was not up to the challenge, so he cancelled....even though no others did!

But according to some the SS informed Trump he could not go! " Mr President, seems it is raining and breezy, you hair could pose a security risk!"

Next you two, there is not one member in the military branch that would not be honored to hold an umbrella for his/her CIC. They put their life on the line at his order.

So Trump imho should have honored the dead Marines by not letting a little rain stop him from going to do so. A Marine would have been proud to hold an umbrella over Trump, had he not been so scared of the rain.

Now you two read up on tje new guidelines before you both get pointed.
The secret service could protect Obama in the rain. Guess they forgot how to plan with twit head in chief. What a crock
Calling out your lie again WTF. Trump himself did not cancel his appearance. A parade would be part of that ceremony that you whine and cry about. My 5 year old understands that. Again your hypocrisy surprises nobody.

Who had the final call Lantern? You really think the SS makes travel calls due to piss ant weather like they had? You do not think Trump makes that call?

Has Trump canceled any rallies because of the rain? Or according to you, has the SS canceled any Trump rallies due to weather?

The US does not have parades to showcase it's military might.

Maybe you can get your 5 year old to explain military parade history to you.

Maybe he was afraid he would melt in the rain like the Wicked Witch of the east from "The Wizard of OZ".
Again a parade would be part of a ceremony honoring the 100th anniversary of the end of WW1. The same ceremony you don't want here. You really believe the Secret Service, aka the President's protection, can't tell him not to go somewhere? Politico? Sorry, I don't go with biased sources. Oh well, off to ignore with you. Since you just threw out another insult be prepared for a warning. Just saying.

But no where has it been reported that the SS was the reason he did not go.

Again all other went except Trump. There was no danger of drowning in the rain.

Trump made that call. It was not made with security in mind but with convenience.
