    Maybe in your mind but not in the real world. Such is self delusion.

    Yes, what I said did happen, just not your blanket statement that is false.

    what Trump did to McCain when he was alive and after he died was sad and pathetic

    Trump is a very petty man, and if a dem did those things the right would see it

    What McCain did to Trump out of spite while doing a 180 on his own promise was pretty sad but then, when other people do bad things, it is Trumps fault. Liberal logic 101.

    The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Marine General Joseph Dunford, will be attending Trump's ceremonies.

    Trump spoke for his generals, insisting that they are "thrilled" to be taking part in his celebration.

    Joint chiefs will not be attending. The chiefs of the army, navy, air force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and the vice chair all found they other plans.

    Are you saying the military chiefs are not patriotic?

    Majority of Americans favor the ACA especially since Republicans didn't offer a better substitute .......... McCain did it for America.

    America is a Fluid country , always evolving ............... dinosaurs just go ahead and die eventually.

    WE know he has diverted $2.5MILLIONOF STATE PARKS FUNDS TO HIS EGO PARADE BUT THAT won't even cover the cost of getting the planes to the D.C. area.He and his most transparent administration refuse to give the costs for his ego parade.

    Trump is giving a speech.

    The draft dodger has no experience with the military. He doesn't realize, but the military chiefs do, that bragging about America's military might cheapens it.

    But he does listen to the murderous dictators he sucks up to and follows their suggestions producing big military parades is the way to impress the peasants. Let’s hope Americans aren’t that easily fooled.

    I just had a really strange thought.

    Trump is getting a lot of grief for politicizing the Fourth, right.

    Trump hits back, right.

    Trump never admits he made a mistake, right.

    A normal President, hearing what is being said, would tell his speechwriters, "Make it apolitical, nothing about me or my administration," right.

    Trump is not normal, right.

    Trump will double down. He will talk about himself, his accomplishments, attack Mueller and declare his report a witch hunt, tell us again how he fell in love with Kim and denuclearization is just around the corner, and he will tell us again how he knows more than the generals.

    That is typical Trump, right.

    His adoring admirers will cheer every word.

    You heard it here first.

    So? Big deal that he invites contributors to be on a viewing platform with him. Now if he goes after dems during his speech that is something else. Giving large donors a ride in air force one or spending a night in the lincoln bedroom is fine by me. I don't want large contributors but as long as it is legal, I think it is one of the advantages that incumbents have.

    And? All Presidents give speeches at all sorts of events.
    Obama doesn't have military experience.

    And Obama didn't have business experience, foreign policy experience, energy experience, etc.

    So, what is your fricking point besides just hating Trump????

    John Adams believed the signing of the Declaration of Independence should be celebrated with "Devotion to God" and with "Pomp and Parade....Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations"

    It sounds like Trump is no different than our Founding Fathers by having a 4th of July celebration and parade.

    Meanwhile, the hate-America-first left-wingers are doing their best to tear this country apart by destroying our National traditions.

    See, you're doing it now. Democrats always project what they do or say onto others. We use facts while Democrats use lies and their itty bitty feelings.
