The stormy whore thing didn’t work and had been abandoned. They are angry and desperate. They are trying to imply trump has beat up his wife, and now this.
It’s revenge for the disinvitation to the White House. The ny daily news is an illiterate rag written for people who can’t pronounce words over 6 letters.

Exactly! And we all know his heart is in the right place.

Yes, Kate Smith had a TV show in the 1950s, and she sang that at the end of each show, I think.

I think it was written by Irving Berlin, but I am not sure.

Yep. I’ll only vote for him in one more election!

It’s still not our national anthem.

Every time we sing our anthem, we are memorializing the men and women who died to provide this nation to us. It reminds us of the eternal struggle to keep this nation free.

God is mentioned in the pledge, as well He should be.

I often stop singing mid song. The president stopped singing the national anthem last week when he was at Arlington. I think it was because the choir was singing, and he realized some might think it rude of him to be singing while they were performing on the same stage. But who knows.

Even if he did......two things 1. even professional singers forget the lyrics to their own hits from time to time.

2. When was the last time God Bless America was allowed to be played or sung in a major public venue?

The liberals/socialists/communists have been hard at work for decades to remove God and love of America from our society. I will gladly bet that the person saying this shit had to look up the lyrics because they didn't know any of them past the title.

...just when you thought the media couldn’t sink any lower...

Isn’t this the same President who said he was looking forward to Friday’s jobs report an hour before it was released to the horror of the Mainstream Media arm of the DNC?

Can you imagine their reaction if he had chosen the Battle Hymn of the Republic instead?

Yes, no doubt Trump learned the song first in Russian and was having trouble remembering the English translation.

But Barry probably knows every verse of "The Internationale" by heart.

Somehow we got through the Revolution, the War of 1812, the Mexican War and the War Between the States without anyone ever having said the pledge of allegiance. Then we got through the Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II, and the Korean War before the word "God" was added to the pledge.

Of course the real reason the wording was changed in the 1950s was so that kids would not misunderstand the phrase "one nation indivisible" as "one naked individual."

Or so I read somewhere...
