The clouds were below minimums for safe air ops, would a last minute ground convoy been any safer? If you can't answer that then you just need to shut the **** up about it. His secret service detail probably made the call.

Good point. Can't fly a helicopter in unsafe conditions. And it's not like they load the presidential limo on Air Force One for overseas flights.
Oh wait, they do.
Eh. The light rain probably made it unsafe to drive.
Actually no, they don't load the presidential limo on AF-1, it travels on cargo aircraft, just like Marine-1. But while you're being a smart ass why don't you tell the class what roads they would have had to travel to get to the site and how wide they were. Come on know it all, clue us in.

Every other world leader managed to make it there and show respect for those who died. But hey, people who gave their lives for principles are dead, right so that makes them losers, and Trump has no time for soldiers, living or dead.
The White House Chief of Staff and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff made it, I guess the roads were wide enough for them
Donald Trump is weak. Any pretending otherwise is suspect.
Then there is this….

I recall hearing a story that the Army didn’t meet it’s recruitment quota recently. I wonder how well it will do if/when these troops are told to chase down some 4 year old girl or worse yet, open fire. I won’t pretend to know what motivates these brave souls to risk their lives for total strangers, a nation that has historically treated them lukewarmly (sp?), and serve under draft dodgers like Bush and Clinton and abject cowards like Trump but I can’t imagine that what we’re seeing now is, in any way or proceeding from any tangent, is what they signed up for.
