Classy move by Trump. Not surprising at all.

On the other hand, Hillary would instruct the Marines to stay out of her personal space.
And Obama wouldn’t even know what a Marine was.

Very nice.

Thanks for posting.

And Obama wouldn’t even know what a Marine was.

The Kenyan would assume they’re all Corpsemen.

I’ve said it before President Trump has the ability to relate to the whole spectrum of society.

Obama made the 8th and I Marines take the bolts out of their rifles for his 2nd inaugural parade.

"On the other hand, Hillary would instruct the Marines to stay out of her personal space."

She'd have them serving the hors d'oeuvres to the partisan Democratic National Committee like she did at a dinner at The White House in June 1994.

Reported in the Washington Times "Inside the Beltway" section that month.

Yeah, he might have them confused with CORPSMEN. Or something.....

Wonderful pictures. Thank you.

It's unusual to display photographs outdoors, as they will fade quickly, but I see that Trump uses the photo gallery as conversation pieces.

Those pictures are just awesome. The one with the Marines in the Oval Office- just amazing.

My next door neighbor is an ex Marine. I’m going to make sure he sees this if he hasn’t already.

Awesome photos indeed. This President really knows how to treat people right. 90% of what he does is common sense and simple communicating of basic truths.

The other 10% effort is the really stuff that requires fantastic intelligence and training.

He’s getting a lot of use out of the new ‘patio’ this season, LOL!

Loved all the pictures, especially the ones of the Marines. MAGA! :)

Obama didn’t know the word corpsmen because he wasn’t born hear, and English isn’t a native tongue to him. He gets close but no cigar.

Compare and contrast: in 1969 I was a Marine Sergeant stationed in Tustin Air Station, California and one evening I was ordered to take 20 Marines in our dress blues to help out at a Daughters of the American Revolution dinner.

When we got there, we escorted the older ladies to their tables, parked their cars and directed traffic. When it came time for dinner, we watched them eat but we were not fed. When we were finished with that duty, I took all of my Marines to McDonald's and fed them.

The next morning, I reported what had happened to our commanding officer and he angrily called his contact at the DAR and told them on no uncertain terms that he would never provide Marines to them again.
