Trump Skips Arlington National Cemetery Visit

November 12, 2018 at 12:34 pm EST By Taegan Goddard —44 Comments


“At 10:03 a.m. on Monday, the White House called a travel lid, meaning President Trump is not expected to hold any public events for the remainder of the day,” Mic reports.

“That also means that Trump won’t visit Arlington National Cemetery on Monday, as the country observes Veterans Day — an unofficial presidential tradition.”



FL continues to get thousands of votes from servicemen and women which are allowed for up to November 15

“The Florida Election should be called in favor of Rick Scott and Ron DeSantis in that large numbers of new ballots showed up out of nowhere, and many ballots are missing or forged,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “An honest vote count is no longer possible—ballots massively infected. Must go with Election Night!”

Seems a waste of taxpayers' money to jet over there just to ignore the observances and pout over dinner. Didn't Melania get to do any shopping while she was there?

It's escalated into a grand defiance. I think he's doubling down and giving us a big FU. Wow he's really going to show us that nobody can make him do what he doesn't want to do. He'll show us, by god, that's he's entitled to ignore whatever he finds unpleasant and inconvenient -- even if it is part of his job as head of state. He'll show us! Afterall, what do we know? We're just critical, little people, who don't matter. He'll flip us the bird and lie about it. His jerkitude knows no limits.

Well guess what, I see quite clearly what he is. My disgust for him has also found no limit. How about you?
