Orange President Scared of Rain

11/11/2018


America's 45th POTUS has done it again.


He behaved like a petulant child in a White House press conference, whining about 'fake news' and squirming under the, relatively mild, pressure of questions from the assembled journalists just a few days ago.


And then, yesterday, he wimped out of attending an event to mark 100 years since the end of WWI in France, because of the weather.

He tweeted about how he was specifically in Paris to celebrate (I would have thought commemorate would have been a better choice) the end of World War One, but then cancelled his visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and Memorial due to “scheduling and logistical difficulties caused by the weather”.

Whilst POTUS Trump cowered from the rain, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron paid their respects to the fallen and are here pictured inside the train carriage in which the ceasefire agreement between the German Reich and France was signed on November 11, 1918 ending World War I

As you would expect, some have been quick to criticise the POTUS for his lack of respect to the fallen.




I'm sure that those serving in the American services will be so proud that their Commander in Chief is scared of a bit of rain.
