AP: If I could turn to immigration and the families separated at the border.
Trump: Sure.
AP: There are children who have now been reunited with their families who are now showing signs of trauma from their separation experience.
Trump: By the way, many of the children — and this is unfortunate, I covered it so nicely on ’60 Minutes,′ but they only put on pieces of it, and they were fine but you know they cut, cut, cut because I guess they have so much time, although I heard that they did very nicely on the show. Did they do well?[/QUOTE]
Could anyone translate the bolded portion into actual English?
AP: On the subject of American soldiers and military overseas, why have you not yet visited a military base in a combat zone like in Iraq and Afghanistan?
Trump: Well, I will do that at some point, but I don’t think it’s overly necessary. I’ve been very busy with everything that’s taking place here. We have the greatest economy in the history of our country. I mean, this is the greatest economy we’ve ever had, best unemployment numbers. Many groups are, you know, we’ve never even been close to these numbers. I’m doing a lot of things. I’m doing a lot of things. But it’s something I’d do. And do gladly. Nobody has been better at the military. Hey, I just got them a pay raise. I haven’t had a pay raise in 11 years. I just got them a substantial pay raise. ‘They’ meaning our military people. I just got them new equipment. They have stuff that was so old that the grandfathers used to fly it. I have done more for the military than any president in many, many years.
So all you somd.com Patriots...do you also feel it is not "overly necessary" for the Commander in Chief to visit our men and women serving overseas in combat zones? Was Bush (43's) surprise Thanksgiving trip to Iraq just an inconvenience for the troops??
WTF does the economy have to do with visiting troops? Answer" nothing of course but Trump has to change the topic but he looks like a buffoon.
IF he truly has done more for the military than any President in "many, many years", why isn't he out there touting this grand success
with them?!? Answer: maybe his bone spurs are acting up???
