Favourite Reagan speech has to be the one he gave to commemorate the D-Day anniversary in 1984.

Wow. Sky News is just as vile as CNN. I clicked on the link above, see nothing but leftist propaganda, then read their description, which remarks how Trump “sparks a row” over comments, world leaders gather to honor the anniversary of D-Day and charities being contacted by 16 children who are worried “about their sexual identity.”

Well, glad to see Sky News rates 16 mentally ill children the same as D-Day.

Too bad those people had to die to save THIS place.

BBC, which is carried here on many US cable outlets, is carrying the DDay ceremonies from Portsmouth. President Trump read a prayer written by ( I think) Eisenhower in preparation for D Day. Comments, only during musical pieces, are appropriately about D Day.

I thought it was silly and turned it off.

A bunch of dancers, flashing lights and glitz to commemorate people who died strikes me as bad taste. What’s next? A musical version of Auschwitz?

Surprised by the scale of this commemoration.

The stage is huge.

First impression was that it is over produced.

reading of the letter of soldier Skinner to his wife was beautiful.

Fox News thought a YouTube commercial was far more important, and cut away.

Four thousand illegals and other types of enemy combatants from Africa and the Middle East and Asia per day are overrunning the U.S. border while Mexico, the narco state, recently releases a report showing 80% of its districts are now controlled by cartels. Nero is too damned busy fiddling in England and France (while the U.S. is turned into the world’s community property state by both Democrats and Republicans) to do anything substantive about it. Except after 30 months in office to throw up his hands and blame congress and the courts. Now we have Ivanka, the darling daughter and apple of his eye, coming out in favor of “paid family leave” of fourteen weeks per year for everyone. Open your eyes people. We are truly circling the drain.

so irritating - they thought the country music awards were more important.

touching to see the DDay vets mouthing words of songs of the era. forever in their minds.

Yeah, but the fat woman dressed up in a ‘40’s outfit with planes flying over - this is all so frigging cheesy. What idiot came up with this idea?

What are your specific ideas on what the President can do regarding he border, that he hasn’t already done?

Saw a picture on the Fox News website with all the leaders seated on front of a row of flags. I noticed Merkel in the front row, and a German flag in the back.

Has any of the commentators noted that none of this would have happened, and no one would have died if it wasn't for the Germans?

What in the heck are they doing there? Have they no shame?
