He didn't go last year either? On Vets day?

I know he and his bubble went there leading up to the inauguration. Is he counting that?

I sure hope so. I'm so tired of these interviewers just accepting every lie he utters at face value.

like how Trump is seen as a "beacon of repression" around the world - using Trump's words to justify anti-Democratic repression.

But, I would think it's almost impossible for anybody on TV, including Rachel Maddow, to have encyclopedic knowledge of every single one of Trump's 6,000 or more lies readily available.

I forgot 45 was even interviewed by Chris Wallace. I tend to try to forget things about that pig.

Two reliable sources though:

1. Alysin Camerota on CNN said he didn't.

2. tRump on Faux said he did.

... and that "visit" became his reality.

In the format of a picture book, but with a longer text, this handsome volume presents the history of Arlington National Cemetery. Telling and illustrating the story with quiet dignity, Demarest begins by noting that the rolling, wooded landscape overlooking the Potomac looks calm today, but it was not always so. Robert E. Lee lived at Arlington House with his family before the Civil War, but after his decision to side with his native Virginia during the Civil War, his home became a target for Union forces, and the land around it a cemetery for Northern troops. Since then it has become a national cemetery for soldiers who died in every American war since the Revolution. Demarest writes clearly, organizes the information well, and illustrates the story in nicely composed, sometimes luminous paintings. Back matter includes a time line, an author’s note, recommended books and Internet sites, and lists of significant individuals buried at Arlington and some of the memorials there.
