In 2017, Trump ordered Ryan Owens to die in Yemen just 9 days into the 1st term. Owen’s father rightfully blamed Trump, & Donald The Coward skipped any more dignified transfers for two fucking years. Gold Star father General Kelly confirmed the ‘suckers’ comment.

WASHINGTON ― In the world of President Donald Trump, he has paid his respects to “many, many” returning soldiers killed in the line of duty, with daughter and top presidential aide Ivanka Trump adding that “each time” she has stood by his side at one of these ceremonies, it has hardened his resolve to bring troops home.

In the real world, Trump has traveled to Dover Air Force Base in Delaware exactly four times ― fewer than half as many times as his vice president ― and avoided going at all for nearly two years after getting berated for his incompetence by the father of a slain Navy SEAL, according to a former White House aide who spoke on condition of anonymity.

“He refused to go back for two years, he was so rattled,” the aide said, adding that the main reason Trump had approved the raid just five days after taking office was that predecessor Barack Obama had refused to do so.

What’s more, Trump made the decision at a social dinner that included his son-in-law and top adviser, Jared Kushner, and then-chief strategist Stephen Bannon, rather than his National Security Council staff.

He conducts a war once again at Mar a Fugging Largo. They stuff their faces with champagne and caviar as he murders innocents. Little schoolgirls died in their classrooms along with our troops.

Our servicemen and women dying as the band plays on. Let them eat cake.
