Trump being Trump - Part 4

Trump told reporters yesterday that he “called home” to Melania Trump at the time and told her how upset he was for not being able to visit the cemetery. At the time, the White House said he was unable to attend and had to cancel the visit because of bad weather.

Trump claims he “called home, I spoke to my wife and I said ‘I hate this. I came here to go to that ceremony.’ And to the one that was the following day which I did go to. I said I feel terribly. And that was the end of it.”

Oh, no, it wasn't, you fucking clown.

JFC.

When the decision was made to cancel the visit to the Aisne-Marne cemetery, no aides cautioned Trump that it would play poorly, which he later blamed on Gen. John Kelly and one of Kelly’s top aides Zach Fuentes. One person familiar with the postmortem discussions said Trump accused them of “f*cking him” by not predicting the inevitable fallout.

JFC! You need somebody to TELL YOU it would be a bad idea to not go?

Still, aides said at the time that Trump did not push to attend the ceremony after being told he could not fly there in the helicopter and that traveling by motorcade would prove difficult logistically.

Kelly later replaced Trump on the visit to the cemetery.

It wasn't dangerous or difficult for Kelly to go? I don't believe anyone even told him that about the helicopter or the motorcade. He simply didn't want to go.

Instead of the visit, Trump spent hours on that Saturday afternoon holed up watching television inside the US ambassador’s residence, people familiar with the situation said.

Bingo.

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

UPDATE:

Ha.  We'll be waiting for those poll numbers to "rocket up".
