Trump sees veterans as workers..
No different to him than janitors.. DISGUSTING
q horde trash
He is disgusting in every way. Sadly, I'm not surprised. When has he ever done anything for anyone other than himself? I doubt anyone will care or shed a tear when his time is up (deceased). I know I wouldn't, and I don't believe THE FELON should have the " normal" ceremony we usually give past leaders. He has never, nor is he now, a leader. He's a convicted felon, a con, etc ( I could go on); so sick of him.
Wtf is a one million dollar a plate fundraiser raising money for? Sounds like a bribery scheme to me or pay to play. Is this even legal for the POTUS to do?
Trump was probably thinking, "Why are we digging them up out of a mud hole, so we can bury them again?" We have gone from the President checking his watch to not showing up at all.
A little frisson between Stein and Parker at the end-Stein often lacks gravitas,laughing inappropriately for example.
This is not surprising. He has never been in favour of your military. Remember “losers and suckers” among other comments?
So why was JD Vance not in attendance? What is he doing this weekend?
He’s not going because the Saudis are paying him a shitload of money for the golf crap. It’s all about money with this putz.
The President SHOULD do this. He is selfish and narcissistic. He should be ashamed!
What an amazing president, super kidding. What an A$$$$$$%. He clearly doesn't care about our military. I'll fight with Lithuania 🇱🇹 to back freedom!
Fund raiser for what . He is not running his sorry ass has already been elected. Where is money going his pocket I assume.
If you want to be the Commander-in-Chief and show off how you can render a hand salute, then you need to act like one. Welcome home our fallen warriors. If you can't do that, you are trash.
The orange lunatic has absolutely no respect for the military, & least of all those who give their lives for their country 😔😔 never forget that he called them ' suckers & losers ' 😡😡 Huge respect to the Lithuanians – & other allies ❤️❤️❤️
I hope the troops don’t forget this. He didn’t support you. Don’t support him.
Don't you maybe think the president it's going to greet and honor the fallen soldiers on American Soil when they come home to their country? why does he have to travel there? that’s THEIR tribute in THEIR country.
TARIFFS WILL BE LIFTED FOR THOSE LOYAL TO TRUMP‼️ NOTHING TO DO WITH ECONOMY ‼️
Why does Trump bow to Saudi?
Article: Billionaire Saudi Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Trolls Trump: 'I Bailed You Out Twice'
The prince has offered to bail Trump out a third time, too.
When is the penny going to drop America FFS} He’s incapable of giving a shite about ANYTHING except Dollars. Those poor soldiers deserved respect. Repulsive is putting it mildly! Trump is despicable. Sending love to the families who lost their loved ones.
Dumpty’s gone to Mar a Lago to make personal deals with MBS. What he cares about is making ever more money, while charging the government (us) the 3 million dollar cost to move and protect his ass while down there.
What do you expect from someone who called us “suckers and losers”. Yes, I am a disabled veteran😔
He never liked the military personnel or military veterans. He always disparages them.
Thank you Lithuania for sending our TROOPS home with Dignity and Honor! Lord, I pray for peace and comfort for the troops family members dealing with the loss of their love ones.
There's no "seems like" in this story. Donald Trump has made it crystal clear that he doesn't care about Americans, especially those who serve their country instead of serving themselves. He respects greed, not patriotism.
This is exhibit 5,001 that Trump hates the military.
While this doesn't always happen, (and understand how ridiculous it is) don't appreciate Sam when you are joking/laughing about how crazy it is. These days are NOT normal! 🤔
Your🏳️🌈President decided to #be too
busy playing golf 🆚 Offering his
respects & condolences to
Our🇺🇸Dead.
This has not gone unnoticed by
All☢️T☢️H☢️E☢️Powers🗳️Which♾️Be.
Remember when you had hands &
feet & eyes for “golf” instead of
Customs🇺🇸Courtesies,
Donald🦆John💩Trump?
WHY would any military person vote for Trump? BUT many did knowing his history from his last tenure as President, (McCain NOT a hero cause he got captured.) etc. Those military folk who voted for him allow the disrespect to continue. I however remember every slight he has projected towards the military and will never forget nor forgive his actions. God bless our military
Why is anyone surprised. He has no soul.
Of course he’s not gonna miss a chance to cheat someone on the golf course for some losers and suckers. Thanks MAGA
Trump could care less about veterans it’s all about himself and greed! My prayers go out to all the troops lost and their families in Jesus name! Bless us all from this tyrant
Bone spurs don't seem to stop him from lurching around his gold course
One was black – I think therein lies your answer!
You cannot pull Trump away from Saudi Arabia.He wishes he was one of them. So do l.
SAM- Question- musk taking the personal data of people, like your social security number, dates of birth etc… if leaked into the wrong hands could affect voting in 2026 or 2028? If yes, what does that look like?
Lithuanians totally cool in my book…President not so much…
What does MAGA mean – McDonald's Again Golf Again.
Let them eat cake
So so disrespectful to our military what do you expect from someone that calls them suckers and losers?
Trump does what he does. He doesn’t care what people think. I don’t know how he was raised, but I think being rich got to his head. He feels no pain for anyone no empathy no nothing but karma is a B someday, is gonna catch up to him.
Why is he still doing fundraising? What is he running for? He has a job.
Ya its not like he stood in front of multiple dead soldiers looking at his watch in direspect….like biden…after he ALLOWED the taliban to kill them!
Tell the MAGA.
How much more despicable can he get? This should be a statement and not a question. He is despicable and no doubt will get more so. His math is just as flawed as his morals.
Trump goes every weekend to Mara Lago these days. Fund raises( mostly for himself I think) Trump should have responded. He’s costing us millions every weekend flying Air Force 1back & forth & keeping the Staff on Standby. Not to mention extra Secret Service expenses. He needs to spend some time at home in the White House once in a while. He can entertain the Saudis there.

Oh well, if Hegseth is available he can put his wife & his brother to work too & maybe msg some more classified info to the team
Hegseth went. Since he’s been in control through these military disasters so far (DC helicopter crash, Signal war leak, now this), he should go and face his incompetence. If the enrolled military support this idiot, then it’s in them I guess….
Chooses Saudis over Americans. Maybe he thinks he'll come away with a couple billion like his son-in-law.
If you don’t recognize a problem you don’t need to deal w it
Is anyone really surprised anymore? We know exactly who he is, and he will never change.
