Afghanistan Thanksgiving: Trump makes the press look like boobs

For the U.S. troops abroad, President Trump made a major personal sacrifice by skipping his own Thanksgiving in order to surprise them by helping to serve them theirs. Under cover of secrecy, he flew nearly 7,000 miles, met with them, praised and cheered them, took selfies with them, served them in the chow line, and generally gave the brave fighting men and women in the world's most forlorn hellhole something to smile about. It was a lovely presidential gesture, well in keeping with past presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, who also made holiday trips to cheer the troops.

I did a search and nothing popped up with this header. Even using just key words. This disclaimer is due so being in FRepper Jail for: REASON---learn to search.

Pretty disappointed there Monica. You should have chosen a different word rather than "boobs". A lot of folks find then attractive and there is NOTHING attractive about the lame stream press. Assclowns would have worked. :-)

obama went there on thanksgiving? I don’t remember that.

I do remember our military were relieved of their guns before he would go meet them anyplace.

I swear the man’s an absolute genius. It’s like a grownup playing “gotcha” with a bunch of children.

They could “report the news” or they could “get Trump”.

For them, the choice is easy.

Newsweek still has Kwong’s story up, with a slightly altered headline and content. The info acknowledgin the change is found at the very bottom of the page instead of right under the byline.

Clymers.

I wish to hell those troops were on our OWN Southern Border. NOT Afghanistan's. Or South Korea's. And that is where Trump would have gone to serve Thanksgiving dinner. To troops who were REALLY defending our country. From invasion.

This making the world safe for "democracy" 10,000 miles away and for the drug cartels and their far-flung poppy fields gets real old. Along with ignoring the 3,000 Aztecan welfare pukes and their spawn breaking our border with Mexico every day. What the hell does AML Obrador have on Trump, anyway?

First step, to declare cartels terrorists.

he flew nearly 7,000 miles,

8431. Can't even get basic facts correct.

She is not counting the flight from Florida to Andrews before take off to kabul but that's another few hours and well over 1,200 miles.
