He again mocked a deceased American (hero) even after duck ing out on military service. How is this not bad?

Why bring up CNN when WSJ broke the story?

i don’t know that we
know why it was moved, or who requested it. what we
know is that the WSJ said trump had it moved, and we
know he didn’t. I mention CNN because they have also been known to lie to attack trump, but they are reporting that this story was fabricated by a wsj reporter who has a well documented history of blatantly dishonest reporting to smear Trump. Add the wsj to the list of media outlets that can’t be trusted. i honestly don’t know who’s left? Fox has Sean Hannity who is a dishonest clown, and from where i sit, almost everyone else is the mirror image of him.

that wasn’t a critique of
you Paul, not at all, you know i think you’re mostly fair
and honest. that was a critique of the media, all of whom have abandoned any journalistic integrity they had remaining after the obama years, in an attempt to take down the guy who humiliated them all. they can’t be trusted any more than sean hannity can be trusted. i know of one person in prime
time who regularly criticized his own side when they deserve it, and regularly praises the other side when hey deserve it - Tucker Carlson. Who else routinely praises and criticizes both sides?

obama
once gave a speech at notre dame, and some catholic items behind obama were covered with a tarp during the speech. You’re right i was offended by that. I’d also be offended if trump had that ship
moved or had a tarp put on the name. we
don’t know that trump did that. i’m not a glaring hypocrite, i am disgusted by how small and petty and vindictive trump is. but his policies are working wonderfully, and that’s far more important than his bedside manner.

Even if Trump didn't direct that action to hide the name, it's pretty sad that our military is playing partisan politics, because we have a thin skinned commander and chief who has no respect for those that have served if they aren't playing his game.

"it's pretty sad that our military is playing partisan politics"

if that's what happened, I agree with you. Do we know for sure what happened? All I know, is that a WSJ reporter got caught lying.

"we have a thin skinned commander and chief who has no respect for those that have served "

Trump spoke at the Air Force academy graduation this week, and shook hands with 1,000 graduating students.

If you took a poll of the entire US military and asked them who respects them more, Trump or Obama...do you really have any doubt what the results would be?

Obama is a plutocrat who is more comfortable with the swells. Trump isn't that. Trump is a lot of bad things, but what he's not, is an elitist.

Again, is a speck of honesty too much to ask?
