The president, who rarely owns up to mistakes, spoke to "Fox News Sunday." (11/16/18)
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump says he should have visited Arlington National Cemetery to commemorate Veterans Day — a traditional presidential act.
Trump, who rarely admits a faux pas, told "Fox News Sunday" that "in retrospect, I should have" gone, but he was busy on calls and had just returned from abroad.
========================================
This is the first time I can recall reading that Trump admitted making a mistake. I didn't think that was in his DNA.
He didn't apologize for skipping the visit to that American military cemetery in France because the rain would mess up his comb-over.
But...all the lickspittles and rubes here that defended his choice seemed so certain of their cult leader....

I honestly hoped that the commander-in-chief had a better reason that we just weren't allowed to be told (like SS concerns from threats).
Sad that he couldn't muster the time to show up for a couple hours to respect the people who fought to protect the world and the country that sort of elected him. Owning up to it doesn't gain any ground with me.
I don't think Trump understands that honoring our war dead is part of his job as president. He has no idea about what it means to be a head of state as well as a head of government. All those presidential perks he's got. They're not free.
I don't believe he believes he should have visited Arlington Cemetery to commemorate Veterans Day. I don't believe him because as the article notes:Trump admits he should have gone to Arlington to pay respects on Veterans Day

Just put a flag lapel on Donnie. That shows them you are a real patriot.
I don't think it was raining in Arlington on 11/11.
I heard from Lawrence O. on MSNBC that when he woke up in his hotel in Paris & saw that it was raining, he canceled the cemetery visit when he found out he would have to be bear headed in the rain. That comb-over would have self-destructed when wet. Not good for the photo op, which is why he went to France in the first place.
Supposedly he's upset at whatever aide told him he should skip the traffic snarl he would have experienced by going by car to the memorial in France.
He's upset that his staff didn't warn him that he would get bad press for skipping it.
... because he needs someone to point out to him that it won't look good if he blows off our war dead.
He spent 4 hours with his lawyers on Monday covering his butt. "Nuff said.

trump has disrespected and insulted them ever since he called John McCain a coward and a traitor. The draft dodging ***** still hasn't visited our armed forces serving overseas. I hope these men and women and war veterans back home remember this when they vote next time. Stop voting for trump and the frigging republicans who don't care about you!!!
It just doesn't get any worse than a ***** who used his daddy's money and political clout to get 5 frickin bone spur deferments to avoid serving in harm's way as he bragged about sleeping around in Manhattan while the bodies of real American patriots and heroes dead bodies rolled down conveyor belts at Dover AFB. This asswipe actually pissed on our WW1 vets to avoid having his clown-like comb over get flattened by a little rain. I live in a city with 5 major military institutions,and the fact this vet hater carries the the title of C-I-C makes them want to puke. But you'll never see these faux pas self-proclaimed Trump cultists call this POS out for any of it....sickening
That's worth a thread. I'm drunk enough to start it.

Alright, let me get this straight.
In believing that it was a mistake, you are surprised that he didn't go. Though you continue to denigrate him for not going anyway and continue to make up some adverse remark about why he didn't go.
But when he actually does go to these functions and actually performs public duties, or ceremonies, that the president has no actual obligation to do. The lot of you continue to denigrate him either way.
It honestly looks like the majority of you are just looking for a reason to be bitchy, all the damn time.
