How can I get some good press?

Suddenly, a photo op at Arlington seems like a good idea.
President Trump made an unscheduled stop at Arlington National Cemetery on Saturday to honor fallen veterans as families and volunteers placed wreaths on headstones.

Accompanied by uniformed soldiers, the president carried an umbrella amid the tombstones as he viewed wreaths laid by volunteers as part of "Wreaths Across America Day," a national event in which volunteers adorn headstones of fallen veterans around the country with holiday wreaths.

Trump's visit comes less than a month after he expressed regret for not visiting Arlington to mark Veterans' Day. The Washington Post reported Trump's visit lasted 15 minutes.

He also caught flak last month after skipping a visit to a military cemetery during a trip to France to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I, which the White House said was canceled due to poor weather.

And, look! I CAN carry an umbrella and go out in the rain.

Fifteen whole minutes. He must have been running.


...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
