President Donald Trump defended his administration’s decision not to attend a scheduled World War I memorial service Saturday in France, saying the Secret Service would not allow him to attend because of weather considerations.
By the way, when the helicopter couldn’t fly to the first cemetery in France because of almost zero visibility, I suggested driving. Secret Service said NO, too far from airport & big Paris shutdown. Speech next day at American Cemetary in pouring rain! Little reported-Fake News!

If President Trump decided to drive to the cemetery and snarl traffic for France then he would have been criticized for that too.
ReplyDeleteEveryone alert breathing person in this country knows that President Trump will never get fair treatment in the dumbocrat controlled media.
On the other hand the grand buffoon president Obummer could do no wrong in the eyes of the media despite his many gaffs and very stupid decisions that placed this country into 8 years of misery.
When this story first broke, CNN had the following headline scrolling beneath the screen:

A perfect example of Fake News. I prefer to call it "distorted news".
