Donald Trump had an important message for his Truth Social followers on Memorial Day, but people were less than pleased with his remarks.
"HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY TO ALL, BUT ESPECIALLY TO THOSE WHO GAVE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE FOR THE COUNTRY THEY LOVE, AND TO THOSE IN LINE OF A VERY DIFFERENT, BUT EQUALLY DANGEROUS FIRE, STOPPING THE TREATS OF THE TERRORISTS, MISFITS AND LUNATIC THUGS WHO ARE WORKING FEVERISHLY FROM WITHIN TO OVERTURN AND DESTROY OUR ONCE AGAIN GREAT COUNTRY, WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN IN GREATER PERIL THAN IT IS RIGHT NOW. WE MUST STOP THE COMMUNISTS, MARXISTS AND FACIST PIGS AT EVERY TURN AND, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!" he stated on social media on Monday, May 29.
Meanwhile, President Joe Biden had a much more inclusive statement about the holiday.
He wrote, "On Memorial Day, we honor America's fallen heroes who gave their last full measure of devotion to this nation. We'll never be able to repay the debt we owe them. But today, we rededicate ourselves to the work for which they gave their lives, and we recommit to supporting the loved ones they left behind."

(22,226 posts)Ha ha heh. A sign of his desperation of his needy and whiny narcistic craving of attention. He's finding out that fewer and fewer people are paying attention to him.

Actually we've been reading his all-caps garbage for years, ever since he learned how to "phone-tweet." The tweets that are spelled correctly with upper and lower case fonts, well, it's easy to figure out that one of his assistants did those.

(13,620 posts)gave ultimate sacrifice. Does he mean those in the military that died during war or those that stormed the capital on 1/6 and ended up going to prison. I say this because I seem to remember he said more than once, anyone who joins the military is a fool and had no respect for them.

(5,731 posts)I get that dim donnie doesn't understand "sacrifice"--let alone "ultimate sacrifice"--but surely whoever wrote this for him isn't THAT stupid. It's deliberate?
