The mother of a Marine who died in the suicide attack at Kabul Airport in August has invited Donald Trump to his funeral after the former president responded to her viral social media attack on President Joe Biden.
Shana Chappell, the mother of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Kareem M. Nikoui, asked Trump to attend the service which is due to take place at the Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California, on September 18th.

Would you say her inviting Trump was pretty much a slap in the face of the current Commander and Chief? I don’t see how else it could be taken
I agree Trump will handle it in a very dignify manor but this will clearly be a ‘slap in the face of the current C&C. It shows Bideb has lost all respect with the people
I am confident he will go, and he will be protected. He’s no dummy.
He won’t speak. He will be there as a fellow grieving citizen.
There will be no media coverage. It will be censored as a nonevent.
Means she blames Biden, like the mother in Jaws. That’s how I take it.
By contrast...
Not so certain. This story is from Newweek. Why? It is a total embarrassment to the present administration and a huge dig a Biden.
That is a scene from Jaws - the woman lost her son and is slapping the sheriff because he knew there was a danger and didn’t close the beach, IIRC
a metaphor for Biden’s actions leading to the deaths of soldiers
And she would be right.
Thank you
This IS a big f’ing deal …
Good post, but it’s Commander IN Chief.
“I imagine that Mamma Chappell rules her family.”
Yep.... she’s a Mama Grizzly not to be trifled with.
Why refer to him as MR. Trump?
Noticed that too!
“Snooze Week” ...expected it, they delivered it. World media is shiete pile!
I don’t understand why Chips Ahoy! cookies are like that. Milk Way bars are good and I think in some ways better than Snickers.
Scene from JAWS.
Alex Kintner’s mom bitch slapping Chief Brody after the mayor refused to shut down the beaches and the shark ate her son.
Best movie reference for this, ever.
I understand your take, I truly do. This is a very tough call.
The grieving Momma Bear has reached out, in her time of need, in her desperate desire to make some sense of her loss. She seeks comfort from someone strong and compassionate.
Momma Bear observed, she learned and she now believes under different leadership her loss was largely avoidable. She has calculated under a different sequence, under a different approach and under a real leader, her circumstance may be different.
As I do, I imagine she believes President Trump is loving, he is kind and his presence would aid her.
Above all, President Trump will quietly do the right thing for this Marine Mother.
I bet my life on it.
The only difference being that, in the end, the sheriff killed the shark. I don’t see Biden doing anything as heroic.
