Support for POTUS

There was general support for POTUS before, during and after Nov 8.

It appears that support is not returned. Why, pray tell, has he not at least publicly recognized four (4) our brothers. They went under his direction. SF goes to any number of God-Forsaken places, doing POTUS's bidding. The least he can do is show a modicum for respect and appreciation for that dedication.

I was sick at heart with their loss. To lose one (1) is a tragedy, to lose four (4) is a disaster. My deepest condolence to their families, both personal and military. It is hard enough to lose a loved one, but unforgivable to be forgotten or ignored.

Tp use his own word - SAD.

Fake news

Fake news strikes again.

If you only read the headlines, first part of the story and the angry responses you would think the President was some kind of asshole.

The headline
"Revealed: Obama didn't phone General John Kelly when his son was killed in action in Afghanistan - partially vindicating Trump's attack on other presidents"

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...y-son-KIA.html


You have to go way down in the story to read...

'But I really just speak for myself. I don't speak for other people. I don't know what Bush did. I don't know what Obama did. You could find out easily what President Obama did. All you have to do is ask the military people. But I believe his policy was somewhat different than my policy,' Trump said.

'I can tell you: My policy is, I've called every one of them.'

But then Trump allowed that he had not yet called the latest families of fallen troops. 'And you have to let a little time go by. You can't just call immediately. But I will be calling, have called, and will be calling the parents and loved ones, wives, etc. of the soldiers that recently were killed.'

The current president could single handedly produce a cure for world hunger and the left would protest in the street because there was no vegan or gluten free option available to those with unusual dietary preferences...

...I'd look for multiple sources to get a good picture of the truth, but its easier to just believe what George Snuffalupagus and Whooppie Goldbrick say as gospel.

Then why don't you find out.

Your next post will be to tell all the others who don't know just who they are.

Be more like Pineapples, do some homework.

Remember, your next post.

Thank you, who are George Snuffalupagus and Whooppie Goldbrick, and why do you believe they are credible sources?

Pineapples won't cure world hunger, Whooppie cough or a bad case of the Snuffalupagus.

That was your next post and in it you didn't explain who those two are.

That's strikes one and two.

It's clear you have a problem with reading comprehension. Both from your replies to the original post and my replies to you.

Get on the stick or your time here will be short.

Enjoy your new handle - although I don't think you'll get to wear it much. Your next one will be BANNED if you don't comply with what I told you to do.

And in your post about who those individuals are include what FTFSI means.

Why do you bring them up? Of what importence do George Snuffalupagus and Whooppie Goldbrick hold? I do not know or recall the information provided by George Snuffalupagus and Whooppie Goldbrick, are the sources you have provided grammatically correct?
