"“It’s incredible that a president would travel to France for this significant anniversary — and then remain in his hotel room watching TV rather than pay in person his respects to the Americans who gave their lives in France for the victory gained 100 years ago tomorrow,” David Frum, who served as a speechwriter to President George W. Bush, wrote in tweets. Trump is actually staying at the U.S. ambassador’s residence in Paris."
“There is always a rain option. Always,” he wrote in a tweet. “Trump will use the U.S. military for a pre election political stunt but sits in his hotel instead of honoring those who fought and died for America.”
* It looks like Captain Bone Spurs is such a whiny toddler that he refused to visit our war dead at the the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery on Remembrance Day/the WWI Ceremony, because even though they often died horribly in in mud and rain and misery, he wasn't willing to get his widdle toes wet in a drizzle. After all, insulting Veterans is one of his favorite things anyway, and he has a long history of mocking and denigrating our war dead for fun, and generally trying to steal the benefits of living veterans.
Oh, and while he was there he used the commemoration of the Allied effort to repeatedly insult and threaten to invade our first and best allies.

"Rice says Trump’s assertion that California’s forest management policies are to blame for catastrophic wildfire is “dangerously wrong.”
Most of California’s forest land is owned by the federal government. California only owns 2 percent.
Furthermore, according to Rice, forest thinning would not have stopped the Camp Fire because it’s burning on land that was thinned by flames just 10 years ago.
He pointed out wildfires are sparked and spread “by parched vegetation, high winds, low humidity and geography.”
Rice said natural disasters are not red or blue, “they destroy regardless of party.”"
So basically he chose to victim blame California and threaten to punish them for having wildfires for reasons beyond their control by cutting funding to forest fire fighting and forest management, then went back on the threat because people still possessing things like logic and empathy called him on it.
