FDR's "Day Of Infamy" Speech ....

to the Governor of Hawaii ... "We are their to back you up should you fail, and always will be!" .... oh wait ...

Besides the insignificant fact that dumb ass Trump used 'their' instead of 'there' ... HE CALLS HIMSELF A WAR TIME PRESIDENT NOW. So what part of "The United States" does he not get. This virus is attacking the whole Country. And since everybody be talking bout this being the worst thing since Perl Harbor ... I just thought the contrast in FDR's actual speech back then and this (#45) guys response today was .... was .... was .... and to try and shift blame on these Governors for HIS OWN SHORTCOMINGS and failures in this crisis? Can you imagine not just FDR but any sane President saying such a thing in a time of war? I am out of words .... help me out sigh. SMH.
