"Where is Trump?" Former president notably absent from 9/11 events 
"Where is Trump? Where he has always been in the moments adult leadership has been needed: nonexistent"

(Salon) Three Democratic Presidents — Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Joe Biden — were all in attendance at a 9/11 service in lower Manhattan Saturday for the 20th anniversary of the terror attacks, which killed nearly 3,000 Americans. 

Meanwhile, George W. Bush, a Republican, was in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, giving a speech near the spot where United Airlines Flight 93 crashed that day after passengers overwhelmed several al Qaeda hijackers who had taken control of the plane. 

Former President Donald Trump, however, was nowhere to be seen at any of these memorials Saturday. "Where's Trump on 9/11?" a New York Times headline read. "Not at Ground Zero." 

"Former President Trump — absent from the 20th anniversary 9/11 ceremony in his own city," McClatchy politics writer Dave Catanese tweeted. 


"Trump feels strongly about Robert E Lee but skips out on conventional patriotism," Vox co-founder and Senior Fellow at the Niskanen Center Matthew Yglesias tweeted. 

"Where is Trump? Where he has always been in the moments adult leadership has been needed: nonexistent," author John Pavlovitz added. ..............(more)

I don't hate Trump. I voted for him twice. However, that doesn't mean I m going to have my nose stuffed up his ass like some in here do. He, like most politicians isn't perfect and had flaws. Just because I point them out some here label me a liberal. Call me what you want, but I know where I stand and that's all that matters to me

Exactly.

No one is perfect. Some are loud and obnoxious. But I would rather get a pat on the back by a guy like than than get a knife in the back from a nice guy.

 

Where was Trump? Still telling lies on 9/11

This

why do some of you automatically assume that if someone criticizes Trump that they don't like or didn't vote for him. Personally I'm more likely to criticize someone that I support if they act like a cunt or don't follow through with promises than someone I didn't support. With Biden it's a given I'm not going to like most of what he does or stands for but if he ever does I'll praise him for it. my 2 cents.....................

Starts a thread claiming Trump was nowhere to be found on 9/11, 2 pages later posts a video showing Trump talking to NY first responders on 9/11.

He didn’t attend the memorial service with the ex presidents.

So what he went directly to the firehouse where the responders worked and had q on 1 conversations with those there . Let's see what is more meaningful going to a staged event reading a script or what Trump did ? Honestly you think standing on a stage reading a script is more of a tribute lmfao such a fuckinh hack .

What's so funny is how the left and many others label trump as this "media whore".  He doesn't seem to concerned about being in the media spotlight, but the left always seems worried about where and what he is doing.  So he wasn't in with the other ex presidents getting the media attention....he doesn't care about it.

All of them have worked against him from the start, I cant imagine he would want to share the same space as that group.

That's why I hate both parties, I am a racist, deplorable white oppressor due to the fact I voted for Trump nothing more nothing less

Off topic, but do you like Vermont better than NH? I think Vermont is better looking with the big farms and all, and maybe the people are the same as NH. What do you think?

I think Rudy will be the next one to go down, or Weaselberg. What will you say if Rudy gets indicted or WEASEL pleads guilty? 

Just how many of Trump's people need to plead guilty to federal offenses for you to man-up and admit he's NO FUKKIN GOOD???

You are actually looking like a fool here with your DIEHARD ZEALOTRY. 

You are not an intelligent man with integrity. You have abnormal allegiance to a party, and its leaders.

Pluses and minuses to both. It is much more laid back here compared to northern NH. Most of our tourists are from CT and western MA, not Boston. Whenever I go back to Tamworth / Ossipee I can't get over how busy it is. Of course the taxes are higher, but worth the trade off for the quiet, lol

I'm right on the edge of the lumber company land and the open farm land just to my west. It's the best of both worlds IMO. Another advantage for me is the legal weed, but my NH doc has offered to write me a script for it anyway. So for me right now I prefer the more laid back feeling of northern Vermont

Like most of us on here you are judging him by his online personality. I've gotten to know 550 via FB messenger and PMs here and he is nothing like his 550 brand here, so yes I would
