Trump expected this:
(another Bastille Day type "celebration" - where he was the "guest of honor" at a parade displaying military might and was feted)
Link to tweet
Someone finally explained what the day - Armistice Day commemoration - is about and in terms he could understand (dead soldiers, WWI ending - and not about him - at all).
Trump decided not to attend - because it wasn't the "celebration" he thought it would be and he wasn't the "guest of honor" and he wasn't being feted.
That's how dumb he is - he didn't know what the day actually meant.
That's how self-centered he is - Trump fully expected to be feted and fawned over - once again.
That's how clueless he is - Trump expected another display of military might and instead discovered it was about the high price of war.
That why he canceled.
It's not about him and if it's not about him - he wants no part of it.
Trump didn't get his parade in America, so he said he would go to France. He found out he still wasn't getting the parade he was hoping for - so he bailed.
That's how much Trump supports the troops.
He bailed on his duty - once again.

OP
It really is - for a president. For Trump, shameful is his natural state of being.

It's worse than you think. He bailed because he was worried about how the rain would affect that dead animal on his head.

I knew that crude creep would want to stand next to Mme. Macron. He probably imagines bedding her or grabbing her somewhere. Just to stick it to her husband.
Dont ever forget - trump is a petty, vindictive little piss-ant. At ALL times.

Shameful beyond anything else he has done to shame himself.
