He is nutz

I couldn't watch the whole thing.

But 3 things I picked up on.

The President' desk is in the oval office.

He totally dissed all the American war deaths who aren't in Arlington Cemetery ...
such as the one in Normandy France where we landed @on D-Day 1944.


Or a cemetery in Meadville, PA where a friend's brother if buried (Vietnam).



He always makes everything about himself.

That was in addition to the fake canned music playing the opening from Hail to the Grief, and Trump repeated thanked the sound system or the audio engineer who clicked PLAY on his laptop.

Wonder what tunes the musicians will play?

Now that the walking goat skin wine flask is out of the picture and General Kelly has Trumps ear and control...what could possibly go wrong?

Where are soldiers are buried, I said out loud, "Never been to Normandy, eh?" Well, I have and it is an affront to the soldiers who died there to suggest thst somehow Arlington is special, more than any other final resting place on earth.

He apparently never took a history course in his life. Despite having been born right after WWII, I guess nobody thought to mention it and since he wasn't there, it didn't happen. It doesn't speak much for his "best" education. When I took World History in 10th grade, WWI and WWII were considered kind of important. And those who lived through them, like my grandparents, thought to mention them.

Or the one in N.W. PA where the older brother of a childhood friend is now buried?

And yes I screamed what about the Normandy cemetery too?
