Excellent statement released by President Trump.

One small quibble, though. He could've left out the part about the Veteran's group that endorsed.

If it perturbs us that Barky imposes himself into things that are not about him, it should perturb us when President Trump does it.

He could've given kudos to the group without mentioning it had endorsed him.

Not gonna lose any sleep over it, though.

End of raining on parade. Carry on.

I believe Donald Trump realizes that a major spiritual movement has picked him up.

This would be Donald’s way of saying that this veterans group is part of the movement.

Brigade 2506

Brigade 2506 (Brigada Asalto 2506) was the name given to a CIA-sponsored group of Cuban exiles formed in 1960 to attempt the military overthrow of the Cuban government headed by Fidel Castro. It carried out the abortive Bay of Pigs Invasion landings in Cuba on 17 April 1961.

About 1,334 men traveled on a seaborne force from Guatemala, of which about 1,297 actually landed in Cuba, plus an additional 177 airborne paratroops. An estimated 114 drowned or were killed in action, and 1,183 were captured, tried and imprisoned. Private sympathizers in the United States eventually negotiated to give $53 million worth of food and medicine in exchange for release and repatriation of Brigade prisoners to Miami starting on 23 December 1962. On 29 December 1962, President John F. Kennedy hosted a 'welcome back' ceremony for captured Brigade 2506 veterans at the Orange Bowl in Miami. Some of its members have gone on to fund the Brigade 2506 Veteran's Association which controls the Bay of Pigs Museum & Library in Miami.

Agree.

Made a similar comment on another thread about his overuse of adjectives, adverbs, and adverbial phrases. He needs a strong-willed communications director to edit his statements into simple - and more powerful - declarative sentences.

Yet, as is, so much better than the flaccid, insipid statement Obama released.
