Trump Dive-Bombed In Tweets After Claiming Army Seized Revolutionary War AirportsMary Papenfuss,HuffPost
Trump, clearly reading from a teleprompter, talked about how the Continental Congress in 1775 created a unified Army out of the Revolutionary Forces encamped around Boston and New York. The army suffered a bitter winter of Valley Forge, found glory across the waters of the Delaware and seized victory from Cornwallis of Yorktown, Trump said. Cornwall, of London, was defeated at Cornwall.
Heres where it goes off the rails: Our Army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over airports, it did everything it had to do, Trump added. And at Fort McHenry, under the rockets red glare, had nothing but victory. When dawn came, the star-spangled banner waved defiant.
I mean these are just priceless----

We have taken the southern terminal from the redcoats, and morale is high, as the rewards were great; the terminal had a Cinnabon. Tomorrow General Washington would have us push to the northern terminal, where he hopes to find a barbecue ship and the main gift shop. We were most fortunate in our triumphs; word has reached us that the armies undertaking the liberation of Atlanta International and LAX were less fortuitous. Pray for us and the cause, because if we win, General washington promised all men under arms two first class tickets to the dream destination of our choice.

Dear @realDonaldTrump, It just occurred to me that you & my great, great, great grandpappy were on the same flight in 1812. The family stories of the emergency landing during the red flare are absolutely riveting. Just curious, what time do you start sundowning? xoBette #BeBette

We beat the British because they had to connect through Atlanta. #RevolutionaryWarAirportStories

My Dearest Rose,
I'm afraid I must be the bearer of bad news. My flight has already been delayed a fortnight, and I fear it will be longer. The army has shut down the airport and the airplane will not be invented for 6 score and 7 years from now.#RevolutionaryWarAirportStories

(53,776 posts)better than to read it as written and immortalize yet another monument to his unpredented/unpresidented ignorance. We need to get this dumb bell out. How is this fool president?
And that speech writer needs to be canned as well.
