  1. In this election year, contrast President Biden’s somber comments with Trump’s “losers” and “Suckers” comments. Only one deserves to be Commander-in-Chief.

  2. I’ll just leave this here…

    >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…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.

  3. Beau’s death was a tragedy both for Biden but also for the country. If beau hadn’t died then Biden would’ve run in 2016 and if he won the primary, would’ve destroyed trump.

  4. Biden actually has empathy for people, including our veterans. It’s refreshing.

  5. “Happy Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard to destroy our Once Great Country, & to the Radical Left, Trump Hating Federal Judge in New York that presided over, get this, TWO separate trials, that awarded a woman, who I never met before (a quick handshake at a celebrity event, 25 years ago, doesn’t count!), 91 MILLION DOLLARS for “DEFAMATION.” She didn’t know when the so-called event took place – sometime in the 1990’s – never filed a police report, didn’t have to produce the “dress” that she threatened me with (it showed negative!), & sung my praises in the first half of her CNN Interview with Alison Cooper, but changed her tune in the second half – Gee, I wonder why (UNDER APPEAL!)? The Rape charge was dropped by a jury! Or Arthur Engoron, the N.Y. State Wacko Judge who fined me almost 500 Million Dollars (UNDER APPEAL) for DOING NOTHING WRONG, used a Statute that has never been used before, gave me NO JURY, Mar-a-Lago at $18,000,000 – Now for Merchan!”

    Disclaimer: I DO NOT have a Truth Social account. This was a link in the posted article and thought it was important to show the contrast between POTUS and TFG.

  8. I lost my first born Son 5 years ago. It still breaks my heart if I ever stop to give it the slightest thought. You NEVER get over it, you merely learn to carry on. My heart goes out to this man. A parent should never have to outlive their children.

    THE HURT IS VERY REAL

  9. Even my six year old granddaughter knows what today means, you from outer space?

  10. Girl I get it… but that horse is beaten. May his memory live on but get a new way to try and relate with people. It’s… uncomfortable.

  11. Wow a president with fucking feelings? We’ve fallen so far as a country since ‘16.

  12. Meanwhile Trump went golfing on top of the closest veteran’s cemetery.

  13. The only modern POTUS to have military kids are Bush the first (Bush the worst did Air Force reserve) Biden, Eisenhower and FDR. The last three had kids in combat zones. It used to be much more common.

  14. The hurt is very real with my Dad after my Grandpa’s passing fifteen years ago.

  16. So two of his children died as well as his first wife. That is an awful lot of tragedy for one man to bear.

    I hope Jill has been a good stepmother.

  18. Go to gaza and see some real hurt. One youre directly responsible for
