“President-elect” Donald Trump didn’t bother to show up to any Veterans Day events today

Now that Donald Trump has managed to accidentally get himself illegitimately elected “president” of the United States by insulting and attacking military veterans and their families, one might think he’d try to reverse that image as he prepares to become Commander in Chief. Veterans Day gave him such an opportunity today, with events taking place around the nation. But Trump didn’t bother to show up to any of them, and instead spent the day on partisan work.

After complaining via Twitter last night that the hundreds of thousands of people currently protesting his illegitimacy are being “unfair” to him while falsely accusing them of being either paid to protest or encouraged by the media to do so, Donald Trump’s Twitter account was a bit more tame today. But his first today, which included correct spelling and grammar and therefore must have come from his staff, declared "Busy day planned in New York. Will soon be making some very important decisions on the people who will be running our government!" In other words, the first message to the American people today from its new "president-elect" was to announce that he's hunkered down with partisan advisors and trying to pick which corrupt extremists he wants in his cabinet – even as ludicrous names like Rudy Giuliani and Sarah Palin are being floated. It was only two hours later that Trump (or his staffers) realized the faux pas and finally tweeted "Today we express our deepest gratitude to all those who have served in our armed forces." But Trump never did show his face at any Veterans Day events today. He could easily have remained in Washington DC for the day and attended such events either with or without President Obama. Instead he ran back to Trump Tower in New York, where thousands of Americans are currently protesting against him to his face, to begin working against them. Veterans were mere insult fodder for Donald Trump while he was running, and that doesn't appear to have changed. If you enjoy Daily News Bin, consider making a contribution:

    Trump, Putin, Europe and Syria

    With Trump being as hateful as he has been during the campaign against Muslims, Blacks, Immigrants and others that ISIS and other terrorist groups would recruit such people to conduct terrorist attacks in the U.S. using Trump’s wording of banning all Muslims from coming into the U.S. as a rallying cry.

    Trump want’s to keep all refugees from Syria out of America. But where will they go? Russia won’t take them as it would upset the White Nationalism agenda of Russia. Other countries in the EU won’t take them for the fear of ISIS implants that would destabilize the European nations with fear that will lead to greater fear with Russia threatening to invade countries like Poland.

    The U.S. is planning to send 6,000 + troops, tanks and helicopters to Germany next year to reinforce the German military against an incursion from Russia. The U.S. has recently sent the largest shipment of ammunition to Germany in the last 20 years.

    Now why would the U.S. send ammunition not just Germany but to various locations across Europe if the military wasn’t expecting Russia to conduct a large scale military operation like Russia did with the Ukraine?

    The more important question is this though. Putin and Trump are buddies which we know from the campaign when Putin called Trump “brilliant.” With Russia continuing to attack ISIS in the Middle East and both ISIS and Russia causing refugees to flee to other nations, how can Trump remain friends with Putin for after Putin put the burden on Europe and the U.S. by not taking in refugees?

    How can Trump’s supporters even vote for Trump, how can the Electoral College elect Trump knowing that Putin is threatening war with Europe that in order for Trump to keep his friendship with Putin that Trump would have to reduce the forces being deployed to Europe otherwise Putin would increase his war in Syria and the Middle East in general against ISIS and other groups where thousands if not hundreds of thousands of refugees are left wandering the region eventually seeking shelter in Europe, Canada, the U.S. and Europe that if those refugees are not taken in they would become new members of ISIS and other militant groups that would not have become terrorists if Trump had only seen the real war and granted them refuge from the storm disregarding his voters wishes, which he cannot do because his entire Presidency and his “Kennedian Empire” that he is trying to establish through bringing his children into the White House to run various offices would be in ruin.

        Ignorant is too nice a description of that PIG Trump. If he was so brilliant, to show or send a campaign member to at least ONE VETERANS DAY affair may have at least given him an ounce of dignity. Wow is this CLOWN truly?

    Protesters should be glad he won. His life and his family’s life are now under total protection. No privacy whatsoever, scared 24/7 that something may happen to one of them or one of their properties. No matter how much money they have, they will never live in PEACE. That’s a great punishment!!! We are still FREE. The TRUMP family are now being held like guarded prisoners physically and more so MENTALLY and always will be.

    This seems like a fair, unslanted, well written piece. Keep up the good work, itelligent rhetoric like this is what got him elected In the first place. I am sure if you keep at it this will change, because alot of people will not get annoyed with your narcissistic views that deem half the USA not intelligent enough to have a different view.
