I know Presidents normally do this but seeing five deferment bone spurs laying this wreath (like he gives a fu*k) didn't sit well with me...

My 250 foot tall/ $100 million dollar - Arch de' trDUMP will remind them how dignified rich men are remembered and loved. Not with some puny marble headstone at their war grave.

(414 posts)...he desecrates the office of President of the United States every minute of every day. It is imperative that he is removed from office, ruined financially, and every greasy stain he has placed on our country scrubbed away. Restore the East Wing, the Rose Garden, and anything else he has touched.
He makes me sick. Everyone who enables him as well. Beyond disgust for me, it is now righteous anger.

It IS INDEED righteous anger. I feel it, myself.
We need to get ready for 2028. First, of course, make sure WE have the majorities in BOTH the House and Senate, and we can get that done, THIS November. It would be helpful if we have more Democratic governors and mayors, too. But we ABSOLUTELY have to take the White House back, with the very next Presidential election (which is in 2028).
And we have to make sure well STILL have those Democratic majorities for the Democrat who moves into the White House in January 2029. Well have a bigger clean-up job than even in our worst nightmares.

His goons shoved a female soldier out of the way who was trying to enforce the rules at Arlington, just so he could get his campaign photo-op. Too bad we don't have a picture of THAT!
