Don’t blame the Reader In Chief. His electronic adviser gave him some bad information.

Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!

Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!

And this be our motto: “In God is our trust”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
Had he looked at a dollar, he might have said our motto was "Legal Tender."
What’s a motto?
Nuttin’, what’s a motto whit’ you?
