Paramount Member	Sat Nov 10 16:27:03 Lol. Trump is pissing on America and on all American soldiers who fought and died for USA. Trump cancels WW1 memorial at U.S. cemetery in France due to rain PARIS (Reuters) - President Donald Trump could not attend a commemoration in France for U.S. soldiers and marines killed during World War One on Saturday because rain made it impossible to arrange transport, the White House said. The last minute cancellation prompted widespread criticism on social media and from some officials in Britain and the United States that Trump had “dishonored” U.S. servicemen. The president was scheduled to pay tribute at a ceremony at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in Belleau, about 85 km (50 miles) east of Paris, with his wife Melania. But light steady rain and a low cloud ceiling prevented his helicopter from traveling to the site. “(Their attendance) has been canceled due to scheduling and logistical difficulties caused by the weather,” the White House said in a statement, adding that a delegation lead by Chief of Staff John Kelly, a retired general, went instead. The decision prompted a rash of criticism on Twitter, with Nicholas Soames, a British member of parliament who is a grandson of former Prime Minister Winston Churchill, saying that Trump was dishonoring U.S. servicemen. “They died with their face to the foe and that pathetic inadequate @realDonaldTrump couldn’t even defy the weather to pay his respects to the Fallen”, Soames wrote on Twitter. [...] Despite the light rain, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel held a moving ceremony in Compiegne, northeast of Paris, to mark the 100th anniversary of the signing of the World War One armistice. http://www...-france-memorial-idUSKCN1NF0NU Lol. What a pathetic clown of a president you have. Aren’t you ashamed, Hot Rod? He threw away his umbrella a week or two ago. There was a video on it. So maybe he was afraid that the light rain would destroy his hair and therefore he refused to attend?
Pillz Member	Sat Nov 10 16:31:43 Meanwhile macron is canceling the French people. But nobody is the least bit ashamed.
Average Ameriacn Member	Sat Nov 10 16:37:09 I've heard that they have acid rain in Europe, it's really dangerous. Trump should not travel there at all. He could have simply sent greetings by mail.
Rugian Member	Sat Nov 10 16:41:03 Trump didn't want to give credence to the idea that Americans dying for Eurofags was a worthy cause.

tumbleweed the wanderer	Sat Nov 10 16:45:40 he doesn't visit living troops either, says he's too busy golfing takes a long time... plus all that TV to watch & tweet about
Hot Rod Revved Up	Sat Nov 10 16:47:57 The people responsible for Trumps safety canceled the trip. I buy you books to go to school and what do you do? Tear the backs off and eat the pages.
delude Member	Sat Nov 10 16:49:12 Yeah i am sure they take that into consideration as he golfs in the rain.
American Democrat Member	Sat Nov 10 16:51:02 Trump is an embarrassment to this country.
Paramount Member	Sat Nov 10 16:52:26 If it is insulting to Trump then I think Europe should build its own army. Trump doesn’t like Nato anyways, so. We will build our own army, and Trump can strenghten his friendship with Saudi Barbaria instead.
delude Member	Sat Nov 10 16:53:10 I find it hard to believe that a little rain, and no contingency plan had been in place because of that. For example; >>Ben Rhodes, who served as deputy national security adviser for strategic communications under President Barack Obama, said the excuse about the inclement weather did not stand up. “I helped plan all of President Obama’s trips for 8 years,” he wrote on Twitter. “There is always a rain option. Always.”
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sat Nov 10 16:57:49 reports are Trump is grumpy -was roundly rebuked in the election -his shill put in as AG was immediately exposed -European leaders don't butter him up properly
Paramount Member	Sat Nov 10 17:05:21 ”The people responsible for Trumps safety canceled the trip.” Have they recieved instructions to not let his hair get wet?
obaminated Member	Sat Nov 10 18:26:00 "If it is insulting to Trump then I think Europe should build its own army. " yeah, like, maybe europe should be able to defend itself and not expect american soldiers to protect them from themselves.
murder Member	Sat Nov 10 18:45:45 Trudeau is a savage. :o) Lis Smith @Lis_Smith .@JustinTrudeau drops umbrella (& the mic): “As we sit here in the rain, thinking how uncomfortable we must be these minutes as our suits get wet, and our hair gets wet...it’s all the more fitting that we remember on that day in Dieppe the rain wasn’t rain, it was bullets.” http://twitter.com/Lis_Smith/status/1061321848762392578
Forwyn Member	Sat Nov 10 19:55:25 Leftists hope aboard the muh troops bandwagon for another day or two to #resist.
murder Member	Sat Nov 10 19:58:14 Don't look at me, I don't give a fuck about anyone who dies fighting in a foreign land. That doesn't have shit to do with national defense.
Hot Rod Revved Up	Sat Nov 10 23:41:54 deluded - Yeah i am sure they take that into consideration as he golfs in the rain. Playing golf in the rain is a tad safer than flying in a helicopter I would imagine,
delude Member	Sun Nov 11 06:18:57 "Playing golf in the rain is a tad safer than flying in a helicopter I would imagine, " Considering the hundreds of time it has flown in other weather conditions with president on board. As well as having other contingencies in place, it is difficult to believe that in this particular instance, it prevented their attendance. I am going to lean on the side that Trump just didn't want to attend.
Paramount Member	Sun Nov 11 06:32:37 It was supposedly only a light rain. I doubt it was the rain that stopped him from going. I think it comes down to that Trump hates American soldiers who fought and died for the USA. I think in his mind they are/were weak and useless.
Hot Rod Revved Up	Sun Nov 11 07:00:25 "President Donald Trump was scheduled to take a 30-minute helicopter ride from Paris to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and Memorial in Belleau, France. But a rainy forecast for the city made it too risky for him to safely fly there, the White House said a couple hours before he was to arrive at the cemetery. "The President and First Lady’s trip to Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and Memorial has been canceled due to scheduling and logistical difficulties caused by the weather,” the White House announced."

werewolf dictator Member	Sun Nov 11 08:23:34 trump should honor american war dead by nuking a city in britain plus nuking a city in germany for roles in getting america into their stupid fight then trump should dig up woodrow wilson's skeleton and set it on fire
Rugian Member	Sun Nov 11 08:28:35 Lusitania and the Zimmerman Telegram were false flags cooked up by war profiteers and globalists to drag us into the conflict. Why would Germany willingly prick the US into declaring war on it when it already had its hands full with the rest of Europe? Cui bono?
Paramount Member	Sun Nov 11 10:49:25 So Trump can’t travel if it is raining, because of safety reasons. OK.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Nov 11 11:05:32 "the White House said" "the White House announced" these have almost as little value as "Trump said" comments
patom Member	Sun Nov 11 11:15:57 His bone spurs must have been acting up again. I think it runs in the Trump DNA. War and Trump is sort of like Oil and Water.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Nov 11 13:27:50 Putin seems pleased w/ his puppet's performance: http://www.liveleak.com/view?t=Cbws4_1541940001
Rugian Member	Sun Nov 11 13:28:54 Holy shit, collusion proven!
delude Member	Sun Nov 11 13:36:44 proven way before...
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Nov 11 13:38:10 Merkel gets a no eye-contact handshake Trump gets a nod, a thumbs up & an arm pat best buds
Nimatzo iChihuaha	Sun Nov 11 14:08:36 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rMNQLiMH9A When Putin was asked about this rain incident by a reporter, he replied "I am not made of sugar".
jergul large member	Sun Nov 11 14:15:28 Macron was also incredibly touchy. I think behavioural experts are behind this (That kind of non-verbal communication can be very confusing to a certain mindset).
Pillz Member	Sun Nov 11 14:58:46 Lmao Putin is the best
earthpig GTFO HOer	Sun Nov 11 16:50:47 Rain is not a plausible or probable reason; any speculation as to the real reason?
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Nov 11 17:00:07 Trump: "get the fuck out of here, i have TV to watch"
Hot Rod Revved Up	Sun Nov 11 21:36:21 Maybe he was too pissed off a Maccarone because he double downed on his Nationalism insult at the dinner. But I doubt he would take it out on the dead because of that. More likely there was an illness, Melania or the Pres. Or even more likely, a believable threat. That's all I can think of and I seriously doubt it was the first one.
delude Member	Mon Nov 12 04:53:31 "Maybe he was too pissed off a Maccarone because he double downed on his Nationalism insult at the dinner. But I doubt he would take it out on the dead because of that." You underestimate the pettiness of Trump. "More likely there was an illness, Melania or the Pres. " Would have been a better excuse than "oh wittle rain prevented us." "That's all I can think of and I seriously doubt it was the first one. " Uh huh.
Hot Rod Revved Up	Mon Nov 12 05:57:55 The first one. "Maybe he was too pissed off a Maccarone because he double downed on his Nationalism insult at the dinner." Or is that a yes of yours?
patom Member	Mon Nov 12 07:15:43 Two possibilities: He failed to master the operation of an umbrella again. He ran out of kerosene that he uses to wash his socks. (Keeps the ants off his candy ass)

Paramount Member	Mon Nov 12 09:22:33 Is it more powerful than this image? http://www.../AFP_ON1F6-4697.jpg?t=20170517
Hot Rod Revved Up	Mon Nov 12 13:53:11 Looks like Trump is getting ready to retaliate if the King does it wrong. I wish I had a photo of the Scottish unit that fixed bayonets and charged during the 2nd Iraq war. Scared the crap out of the enemy.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Mon Nov 12 16:22:44 apparently Trump missed another event too, perhaps due to rain again... Trump traveled separately from other world leaders, who took a bus from the Élysée Palace to the Arc de Triomphe for a commemoration ceremony marking the centennial of the armistice. Multiple news outlets reported that Trump was not present when other leaders arrived and walked side-by-side and bells tolled to mark 100 years since the fighting ended. White House press liar Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement that Trump arrived separately "due to security protocols." http://the...ders-gather-to-mark-end-of-wwi
