Twitter Trolls Apparently Didn’t Like How Donald Trump Sang the National Anthem
Mediaite ^ | May 29, 2017 | Jon Levine

In the next edition of Donald Trump can do nothing right ever, we give you the National Anthem.

Shortly before delivering Memorial Day remarks Monday at Arlington National Cemetery, President Trump joined with the audience in the traditional signing of America’s national song.

Unlike a lot in Trumpland, it all went off smoothly — but that still didn’t stop a certain class of Twitter liberal from taking exception. The crime this time was Trump’s personal rendition of the anthem, which trolls online apparently deemed insufficiently respectful — or something.

Here’s a snapshot of the miasma of faux outrage.

(TWEETS-AT-LINK)

… Get a life people. It’s Memorial Day.

If he cured cancer they'd scream he's a racist for not curing sickle cell anemia too.

Interestingly though, Roseanne is a big Trump supporter.

Trump-Russia investigation is Bovine Excrement

It’s like “LISTEN TO THIS WORLD! THESE GUYS DIED FOR A GOOD CAUSE AND LET’S HEAR IT... ONE TWO THREE OH SAY CAN YOU SEE...”

It’s like Donald took all the GLOOM out of it! What is a mourning dove to do?!?

Curse you, Libturds, and your over-arching respect for the solemnity of Arlington Cemetery and The National Anthem!

President Trump sings and believes it

More than can be said for former holders of the office

I do think people are getting sick of it. There were also some indications that Trump's true inner circle that he can trust is getting out there and defending Donald Trump. I am disappointed that nobody has been hauled away in handcuffs and charged with treason for the leaks.

Mrs. Pence was masterful greeting military families before the wreath ceremony. She brought the official first first bunny with her. Aren't liberal heads exploding about the second family bringing the first bunny with them to events? I do get the feeling that Mrs. Pence is nobody's fool.

Uh, that IS their life: Hating others is a way of life for them.

Those Tweeter libturds really are brain damaged. President Trump did not do anything the least bit inappropriate. He sang along with the national anthem, good for him. BFD.

The libturds have gone so totally demented in their Trump hatred that they have to rant and rave about absolutely every moment in his life. If he ran into a busy street to save a child he’d be criticized for taking the risk. If he stayed back and let the Secret Service do it he’d be criticized for standing aloof. The libturds are simply determined to attack at every moment and every point, no matter what.

And blame him for putting Doctors out of business.

Maybe the “leaks” do not amount to a hill of beans in the big picture. If Trump is trying to live a life so true that it doesn’t need make-up to look good, this could be a demonstration of just that.

I watched the Memorial Day services in Washington on TV today. I don't think I've done that since the days of Reagan. Anyway, it was very nice to see a president who truly honors the day. Trump also spent quite a bit of time after the ceremony mingling with the veterans and families.

Regarding Karen Pence, she reminds me so much of my wife. Just a down to earth plain-spoken person with no pretenses. I know Melania Trump steals the spotlight most of the time but Karen Pence is closer to the kind of woman your average American conservative man is married to.

And at any rate how did the matter of “leaks” come to the fore here?

Maybe the bigger problem is that people full of themselves are leaking self all over the place.

Damn.

Don’t think I’ve seen a President do that.

Welled up a bit watching...

“If he cured cancer they’d scream he’s a racist for not curing sickle cell anemia too.”

Actually if he cured cancer, we would then be subject to years and years of sob stories of young children on food stamps because their female and minority mothers were oncologists who are now out of work because Trump did not care about cancer but was more interested in harming women and minorities

My suspicion is the real issue is not how he sang the song.

That is but a cover for the real issue.

Peal off a layer.

Trump is President instead of Hillary. But that is not the real issue yet.

Peal off a layer.

Leftwing solutions to all the world's problems have not yet been implemented. But that is not the real issue even yet.

Peal off yet another layer.

The world around us imposes a moral duty on us to hard work and personal responsibility and other personal virtues. But that is not the core of the issue.

Peal off another layer.

The liberal has decided not to try, but to demand that the nature of the world change so that these virtues are not demanded of them.

At bottom, they don't like what necessitated us from being thrown out of the garden, and want the garden back without bothering to become the kind of souls that can live in it. They aspire to moral pride, but want to skip the work of even being moral.

I couldn’t bring up the video... wished I could, just based on the remarks. Even of his enemies.

Donald sang it “with every cell in his body.” Blame Donald for bad judgment sometimes, but never blame Donald for not acting upon an overwhelming desire to be sincere. You mean, all this sacrifice, even while the government has been acting like chickens running around with their heads cut off, might mean something in the end after all?

I think we worry too much about Donald. The Man Upstairs is personally watching over Donald.

Yeah, because those doctors wouldn't immediately be retrained into another specialty, especially with a doctor shortage. Most would probably become hospitalists or GPs.

Even worse, ignore the melodic call of heaven.
