Presidents attending the 9/11 memorial

President Biden, of course. President Obama. President Clinton. And I think Bush will be in Shanksville. Notice any missing names? Some dumbass con man who is a traitor to the United States of America? Nobody better say anything about the former guy being patriotic
Ever.

He MIGHT step out on a balcony in NYC and wave or something- but, I doubt it. NYers seem to despise him. More than likely he'll spend the day in FL telling the MAGATS about his 9/11 bravery- and how the liberals don't want people to remember him rushing up the stairs in the North tower to save small children.

His handlers know, if he did speak he'd just embarass himself by switching the speech to about stolen election crap. The optics would be to much to explain away, so they just keep him away.

Someone wrote a speech for the moron which tried to say that the 1776 revolution forces "went over the ramparts" of the British. Moron said ramparts... but because he didn't know the meaning of the word... he then "corrected" it to say "airports".

Utter Moron.

He and his Republican cronies will piss on the solemn 9/11 Commemorations via a meaningless lameass boxing match, which is at heart a cranked up GOP EGO televised wankoff for their IDOL: the Republican Casino Hustler and Subcontract-Stiffer Deluxe.

So disrespectful. So pathetic. So Republican.

I really like your descriptions and adjectives. Love "cranked up GOP televised wank off".

Tending towards irreverence myself, I appreciate words that make the point while being dark and caustic yet still FUNNY.

Way to go. Keep up the good words!

Twenty years ago, Trump stood in the middle of the street in front of Trump Tower, mother-of-pearl-handled six-shooter in hand, daring terrorists to attack.

He was called "Old Blood and Guts", later modified to "Big Bum and Gut".

Sad that he never got the Nobel Peace prize for his warrior demeanor.

OMG....good one. Love "Blood and Guts" later modified to "Big Bum and Gut".

Too damn funny.

The descriptor that popped into my mind this morning was "King of the Disgruntled". Not funny and not approaching your wit. Just mentioning that new descriptions for the toxic lard tub often dance across my distracted mind and today's nationalistic pageantry is brewing up a veritable font of pseudonyms.

Where he pointed his trusty six-shooter at all of the Muslims who were celebrating on the roof tops. Sad he never got the Medal of Freedom for that, either.

I mean if I was in charge of a somber ceremony remembering something like 9-11 I would not invite trump.
Imagine the spectacle.
It would turn into to. I really won, I personally saved everyone, me me me!!
Besides I thing it is a ceremony for real Americans trump and his followers don’t qualify.

but he is 96 and a recent cancer survivor. I am sure Trump's reason not to be there is equally as good.

He's saving himself for calling a pay-per-view boxing match with his idiot son. It's a couple of old, retired guys who will try to punch each other out. Even on a normal day, this whole spectacle would be a fucking joke.

I knew his reason. It is unfortunate that Carter couldn't go but 96 and recent cancer survivor.
