There's nowhere I'd rather spend Thanksgiving than with the toughest, fiercest warriors. I'm here to say Happy Thanksgiving and thank you very much. As president of the United States, I have no higher honor than serving as commander-in-chief. ... We will continue to work tirelessly for the day when all of you can go home to your families…and that day is coming very soon. -- President Donald Trump, Thanksgiving Day 2019

President Trump sacrifices Thanksgiving with his own family to pay his respect to troops abroad that are sacrificing Thanksgiving (and more) with their own. I wish I had one-tenth of this man's energy!

I have flown from London to San Francisco on a non-stop flight at age 68. That long flight was brutal on my body. My butt was sore, my feet swelled up, and I was dead tired at end of that flight. Amazing mid-70’s Trump can endure those long flights to so many places. Of course he is flying in Air Force One, while I am flying tourist class. But still those long flights are very bad for seniors.

Looking at the photos and videos, I don’t think he thought of it as a sacrifice. He seemed to be enjoying himself immensely to be there. Big smiles and as many pictures as anybody wanted.

Never heard Obama being cheered so loudly and enthusiastically by the military.

I searched many MSM sites and newspapers to find this fact and had to dig deep to find it if at all.
If I was the Magic Negro it would have been top of the fold and out there for days.

Pathetic

Something else I noticed from the videos and pictures, his security detail was minimal and kept way back from the President.
