Trump, speaking in Michigan, tries to attack Shri Thanedar, who is Indian-American, for calling for his impeachment but gets confused and mixes him up with John James, a Black Republican.
Trump endorsed John James, who has campaigned for Trump beside him on stage.
John James:
Shri Thanedar:
78 year old man has no concept of Photoshop.
Apparently he was asking John James in the crowd about information on who the impeacher was. It was confusingly phrased though.
Senility
Just remember this guy has the Gold Code….
Racism. The question was from a black guy so he has to be talking about Harlem not Harvard.
Why not both?
Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the United States. (YouTube short that doesn’t want to embed here.)
Do as I say, not as I do.
Could have been an Onion article.
Glad Trump also recognizes the importance of learning more history as I seem to recall he didn’t know what the Declaration of Independence was.
US President Donald Trump says he plans to rename Veterans Day - known as Remembrance Day in the UK - as “Victory Day for World War I” to celebrate American contributions to the conflict.
The president also wants to name VE Day on 8 May as “Victory Day for World War II”, he said on his Truth Social social media platform.
So about the time gap between VE day and VJ day …
“We won both wars, nobody was close to us in terms of strength, bravery or military brilliance, but we never celebrate anything,” he added. “That’s because we don’t have leaders anymore, that know how to do so! So we are going to start celebrating our victories again!”
Yes, we definitely never celebrate victories in the US. And definitely won both World Wars mostly solo.
And if we focus on victories, we don’t have to remember all those loser veterans who died or were disabled. /s
Also, if we start celebrating VE day, he can have another holiday in common with Russia.
Just watching the elderly Canadian WWII veterans now on CBC on the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Netherlands by the Canadian troops. The memories those centenarians are sharing from 80 years ago bring tears to my eyes. Funny but neither they nor their Dutch hosts have mentioned that the US single-handedly liberated the Dutch. I guess Trump is right that the US doesn’t get the recognition it deserves.
So I went to an official US government site (Canadian ones would be biased!) to see what the role of the US forces was in the liberation of the Netherlands in 1945. Trump Administration needs to update the account as it shows a Canadian general reaching the agreement with the Germans on the Netherlands. Also shows many more Canadians than Americans dying in the Dutch war campaign. That needs to be amended.
Liberation of the Netherlands
On 5 May 1945, the Canadian General Charles Foulkes and the German Commander-in-Chief Johannes Blaskowitz reached an agreement on the capitulation of German forces in the Netherlands in Hotel de Wereld in Wageningen. According to the NIOD , between September 1944 and May 1945 about 13,000 allied troops lost their lives while fighting in the Netherlands. The British lost about 6,700 military, the Canadians about 4,000, the Americans 1,135 and the Poles 630. There is an estimate of between 15,000 and 20,000 German casualties. 23,000 Dutch civilians lost their lives because of the fighting.
Yeah, they might disagree slightly on the relative contribution of different countries to the war.
Why? Losers, not contributors.
Correct me if I’m wrong: The White House published a proclamation on May 2, 2025 regarding May 1, 2025??
Calendars have been woke ever since Pope Gregory.
The proclamation seems to be dated 1 May. Not sure what wizardry is causing it to look like 2 May here.
I’m guessing he issued it in reaction to the protests that day, both the annual pro-labor protests, as well as the 50501 protests called for that day.
