How has Former President Trump pissed you off today?

It’s a massively offensive claim. There’s a name for this sort of nasty fakery: stolen valor.

Today’s speech to actual 9-11 responders was the occasion for revisiting some of Trump’s other questionable claims:

https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/29/politics/donald-trump-9-11-first-responders/index.html

Vox’s article, out today, has an even blunter title: “Trump commemorates 9/11 first responders by making it all about him.”

It’s impressive how on 9/11 he was simultaneously down there as a first responder, watching Muslims celebrate the destruction of the towers and being interviewed on the news bragging that he owned the tallest building now.

Stolen valor? Trump? Never! Why, he’s the mostest bestest lover of America’s heroes ever, didn’t you know?

On a serious note: every damn day, that cretin shows that there is no bar too low for him to slither under.

And this slime-creature has designs on fascist power, as has been demonstrated time and again.

It may be a completely-unrelated coincidence that one of the first hits that come up with a search of “stolen valor,” “Trump,” “claim,” and “9-11”, apparently just isn’t there:

That search result is the sixth from the top of the list. Clicking on it does get a talkingpointsmemo.com page URL, but a blank page:

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/trump-lied-about-9-11-donations-took-150k-from-recovery-program

Here’s a page you get to when you search “Trump lied about 9-11” at the TPM site itself; the article is second down. And, again, you get a blank page when you click on it:

https://talkingpointsmemo.com/search/Trump+lied+about+9-11

Maybe it’s just me. Here’s the information on the article from that second page:

… Obviously I’m not claiming that slime-creature Trump is smart enough to be removing results from the Internet. But he does have some people working for him who could probably manage it.

But…yeah, could be just a coincidence. Hope we don’t start seeing a lot of missing search results as time goes on, though.

And even before that, Trump helped the troops in the Revolutionary War take the airports. Trump doesn’t like to brag, so not many people know that.

Even then, George Washington knew that Trump would be the greatest President.

Still a blank page.

TPM does give you, for some articles you click on, a page that says ‘you can see this if you become a member’ (or words to that effect). But that’s not what this blank page is about. It’s just a missing article on the topic of Trump lying about donations he claimed to have made to 9-11 causes.

Saw a comment today that noted, “Trump spent as much time at Ground Zero as he did in Vietnam.”

I know Trump keeps trying to set the bar lower and lower on a daily basis but I am surprised this isn’t generating more outrage. I’m not even American and I think it’s astoundingly shitty for Trump to be making claims that he was there and he helped and he sent people and so on when we know that’s bullshit. We also know that his reaction at the time was to say that he now owned the tallest building in Manhattan. 3,000 Americans dead and the rubble hadn’t even settled yet and Trump is bragging about how tall his building is? Giving thanks to the people who just declared war on the US for buffing his ego?

Regardless of one’s place on the political spectrum, Trump wiping his ass with 9/11 should piss people off. Tomorrow I am sure Trump will say some other dumb shit about something else but I hope these comments dog him for a long time.

Trump has pissed off the leadership of the National Cathedral, who posted this yesterday:

Yes, well said: this latest vile conduct deserves to be remembered by all.

Fake news.

At least he’s better than Hillary.

Ha ha, he makes the lib-tards mad.

Your just jelous."
That’s about it. These comments of Trump’s will have no effect on him whatsoever. He SHAT ON A GOLD STAR FAMILY during the last election for God’s sake. At this point, calling Trump supporters “a basket of deplorables”, is like calling the pacific ocean “a tad damp”

If nothing else, all of his bullshit comments about anything and everything should give the Dem candidate plenty of ammo next fall. Just have to hope they hire a decent ad agency.

Trump supporters have armor against that ammo. Denial and ignorance are powerful drugs.

You left out, “Well, where was Killary on 9/11?”

You forget that American military hero and his family “aren’t really Americans” according to Tan the Conman and his supporters. After all, they’re brown and Muslim. That’s a two-fer.

In the What Do Sovereign Citizens Get Out of All Their Nonsense? thread, I posted [ur=]this:

Today’s Republican party is nothing more than a group of whacked-out nut-job conspiracy theorists. That’s why the king WONJCT is in the White House now, of course.

As we go further down the third-world dictator rabbit hole:

President Trump Directs Navy Secretary to Rescind Medals Awarded to Eddie Gallagher Trial Prosecutors

At this point, “Make America Great Again” should be a slogan to elect a Democrat.

Remember back when Trump refused to send money to fight fires that were threatening peoples homes in California? Well there was a good reason for that. He needed to have American fire fighters well rested and financed in case they were called To defend somewhere truly important, like, say, Siberia.

I need to remember not to read this thread without Xanax on board. Holy shit, what a complete failure of a person he is.

Agree or disagree with the prosecutions, this is simply disgraceful for a CINC.

Why is this disgraceful? You think those prosecutors deserved a Navy Achievement Medal for losing that case?
