The Fascist Felon and First Pole Dancer traveled to Norfolk, Virginia to celebrate the US Navy’s 250th anniversary. Unfortunately, he made the speech mostly about himself and turned the celebration into one of his MAGAt style, campaign rallies.
“Let’s face it, this is a rally!”
Trump spoke on a pier in between two towering Navy vessels, an aircraft carrier and an amphibious assault ship. The carrier displayed a Navy fighter jet, which had the words “President Donald J. Trump ‘45-47’” printed on the fuselage right under the cockpit window.
The Fascist Felon criticized his political opponents and attacked Democratic lawmakers as the shutdown entered its fifth day, causing military personnel to work without pay until the government reopens.

Mr. War Secretary, sir, I'm seeing what appear to be both Black and female sailors in the crowd behind you and I was under the impression that was no longer allowed.

The Campaign Rally Drags On:
Deplorable. Once upon a time, if a president had use a speech to a military academy for partisan purposes, it would be considered a disgrace by both parties.

Trump: "For years I've looked at it. And I added it up and I figured — we have 92% of the frontage. I say, 'How come we call it the Gulf of Mexico?' I mean, I wouldn't say that Mexico is thrilled with me, but what are you gonna do. It's the Gulf of America."

Trump: "In recent weeks the Navy has supported our mission to blow the cartel terrorists the hell out of the water. You see that. And you know, there are no boats in the water anymore. We can't find any … what we're doing is actually an act of kindness."

Rewriting History:
Trump: "Please remember I wrote Osama bin Laden exactly one year ago, one year before he blew up the World Trade Center. And I said, 'You gotta watch Osama bin Laden!' … I gotta take a little credit."

Trump: "I said one year before to Pete Hegseth, I said, one year before — where's Pete? In the book I wrote — whatever the hell the title, I can't tell you — but I can tell you there's a page in there devoted to the fact that I saw somebody named Osama bin Laden and I didn't like it."

So say it, Hegseth. President Truman desegregated the military in 1948. That would be when the “wokeness” began, huh? Say it.

Hmm. We were still fighting in Afghanistan during Trump’s first term. How come we didn’t win “easy” then? Why did Trump sign a one-sided agreement with the Taliban that allowed them to take over?

Trump to the Navy: "I was president in 2016. And then they rigged the election on me. And then we caught 'em, didn't we?"
