Trump absconds from Armistice event in France due to "bad weather"

Quote:A British minister has appeared to join growing criticism of US President Donald Trump's decision to miss a memorial event on Saturday due to rain.

Defence Minister Tobias Ellwood took an apparent swipe at the president on Twitter, saying "rain did not prevent our brave heroes from doing their job".

The US president is also opting to miss the Paris Peace Forum, which is run by his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron and starts on Sunday afternoon.

The criticism from Mr Ellwood, a former soldier, follows a scathing rebuke from Sir Nicholas Soames, a grandson of the wartime British leader Sir Winston Churchill.

The MP tweeted that Mr Trump was not fit to represent the US and said that he was "pathetic [and] inadequate" for not defying the weather "to pay his respects to the fallen".

I think Trump didn't attend because they also remembered the fallen who fought the Nazis. Trumps ideological heroes.

Wrong war.

Of course, now that this has blown up, Trump is shifting the blame. He totally wanted to go, guys! We know it's true because Trump says it's true!

I forget which president it was, but I remember the secret service shitting their drawers when a president abandoned his motorcade to get closer to the crowds. Trump simply doesn't have the balls.

Pence announced there will be a second Trump-Kim summit, although it sounds like it will be about as pointless as the first. Since the first summit involved a vague agreement that North Korea will denuclearize in an unspecified manner or time frame, the US wanted a disclose all sites and weapons. Korea refused, and now the plan is to make a plan to reach that disclosure.

So... the state of affairs is that North Korea will eventually get rid of its nuclear weapons in some unspecified number of years, and in the mean time, we will discuss whether or not they will tell us what they currently have, in some unspecified number of years. I'm sure Trump will claim this summit is a complete success, and that Korea has been 100% denuclearized, and demand a Nobel Peace Prize.

Does anyone else find it telling that Trump hasn’t said fuck all about The Central American Caravan Of The Apocalypse since the election

It was predicted that that would happen.
