Like I said, I may be mixing it up with something else, but I was thinking Bush had gone out in a downpour and then dropped his "new clear" mic bomb.
I did see something in one of the stories complaining that while Trump skipped out on Arlington, he did offer a Veteran's Day sale on his merch. So, that's something. I guess.
Oh, I absolutely believe POTUS should do something to commemorate Veterans Day, he is the CIC after all. I just disagree with it being an Arlington Ceremony. IMO Memorial Day is when we honor the fallen. Veterans Day is when we honor veterans past and present.
