Not Fit To Be Commander-In-Chief

Trump has not visited any troops in a combat zone; he has not visited the soldiers that he sent to the Mexican U.S. border. Where was he yesterday? At his little Thanksgiving Dinner.

President Donald Trump has told aides and White House officials that he was afraid to visit U.S. troops in war zones, and didn't back the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan.

“He’s never been interested in going,” one unnamed former senior White House official told The Washington Post. “He’s afraid of those situations. He’s afraid people want to kill him.”

Trump told advisers that he had considered visiting troops in overseas combat zones, after a series of decisions that critics said showed disrespect toward the military and the troops.

On Veteran’s Day he cancelled a trip to honor those who died to defend our country because he might get wet.

The president canceled a visit to a cemetery where thousands of U.S. Marines were buried during a trip to Europe for ceremonies marking the 100-year anniversary of the end of World War I, and did not visit Arlington National Cemetery on Veterans Day. ...saying had been busy with phone calls

Speaking to reporters Tuesday, President Donald Trump downplayed the fact that many U.S. troops will be missing Thanksgiving with their families this year because of his decision to send them to the U.S.-Mexico border.

“Don’t worry about Thanksgiving,” Trump said. “These are tough people. They know what they’re doing and they’re great. And they’ve done a great job. You’re so worried about the Thanksgiving holiday for them. They are so proud to be representing our country on the border.”

The president’s comments came shortly before he boarded a flight to spend Thanksgiving at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

I do not understand how any military servicemembers or veterans can respect Trump, I realize that they have to obey all lawful orders but they don’t have to respect him.
