Any guesses on who Donald Trump honors on Memorial Day?
If you said Donald Trump, you're right.
TRUMP: Happy Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard to destroy our Once Great Country... me, me, me, me, me... I never met that woman except once for a quick handshake... bad judges, bad, bad Trump Hating judges... $500 Million Dollars for DOING NOTHING WRONG... Mar-a-Lago at $18,000,000... gave me no jury...
BTW, this isn't a "happy" celebratory holiday, this is a solemn day of honor and remembrance.
Here's what former president Obama wrote:
One of the greatest honors of my life was the privilege of serving as commander-in-chief, and with pride also came sometimes heartbreak and loss. And the sober recognition of the sacrifices that so many Americans and their families have made to preserve our freedom.
On Memorial Day, we honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We owe them so much, and their memories will never be forgotten.
And finally, here's what president Biden wrote:
Since America's founding, our service members have laid down their lives for an idea unlike any other: the idea of the United States.
Today, as generations of heroes lie in eternal peace, we live by the light of liberty they kept burning.
May God bless them, always.
We must never forget
the price that was paid
to protect our democracy.
We must never forget
the lives these flags, flowers,
and marble markers represent:
a mother, a father, a son,
a daughter, a sister, a spouse,
a friend. An American.
Trump calls Americans human scum and then whines about his sad, pathetic life and crimes, never once mentioning the fallen heroes he prefers to call suckers and losers. Obama and Biden focus on the meaning of the day and the sacrifices others have made for all Americans.
How anyone can continue to support a POS like Trump is beyond comprehension.

On a day like today, it should be remembered that President Biden has had a dead son who served in the military.
Donald Trump even before he ever became president, insulted and made fun of a Gold Star family because they disagreed with him. He then insulted all of America's fallen heroes when he attacked John McCain by saying he likes heroes who do not get captured (like it is their fault for following orders and doing a dangerous job). Then according to a first person account of his Chief of Staff, Trump called soldiers suckers and losers, and didn't want to appear where there would be soldiers who were permanently wounded in action (i.e. lost and arm or a leg).
It is quite clear that there is one candidate who really respects the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families fighting for America, but has also lived through the worry and the pain of service, contrasting with the other candidate who thinks soldiers are suckers and losers.
There is a reason Donald Trump lost significant support voting wise from military personnel between 2016 and 2020.
Are you someone who gives lip service to the military heroes who have lost their lives in action by having a barbeque once a year on you holiday off, or do you really respect the sacrifices the dead militia men have made by actually respecting their service?
