Instead of laying wreathe at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. There was no speaking part for that traditional P**********l activity. You're applauding an entirely self serving "historical" moment.

Self serving? Don't think he's setting any precedent.

2018: President Donald Trump spent Veterans Day at the White House.

2017: Trump spent Veterans Day in Vietnam, accompanied by Vietnam War veterans at a commemoration event.

2014: President Barack Obama spent Veterans Day on an official visit to China.

2011: Obama spent Veterans Day with troops on board the USS Carl Vinson.

2010: Obama spent Veterans Day with troops stationed at Yongsan Army Garrison in Seoul, South Korea.

2008: President George W. Bush spent Veterans Day at the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum in New York, while Vice President Dick Cheney attended the wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknowns.

2005: Bush spent Veterans Day with troops at Tobyhanna Army Depot in Pennsylvania.

2001: Bush attended events in New York, including a commemoration at the site of the World Trade Center two months after the September 11th attacks. Cheney attended the traditional ceremony at Arlington in his stead.

1992: President George H.W. Bush visited the Vietnam Veterans Memorial at the National Mall in Washington D.C. rather than Arlington.

1990: Bush spent Veterans Day weekend at Camp David, Maryland.

1989: Bush attended the dedication of the Texas Vietnam War Memorial in Dallas, while General Colin Powell, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, represented him at the traditional Arlington ceremony.

President Bill Clinton laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on all eight Veterans Days that fell during his tenure in the White House, but three out of the four presidents who preceded Donald Trump did not participate in the traditional Arlington Ceremony at one time or another.

While Veterans Day (which originated in the traditional November commemoration of Armistice Day) is intended to celebrate all U.S. military veterans, Memorial Day (held on the last Monday in May) is specifically intended to commemorate and honor those who died while serving in the U.S. military.

President Trump himself has attended both Memorial Day ceremonies so far in his tenure, but previous presidents have been known to miss the traditional Arlington commemoration on the last Monday in May, a history we wrote about in 2010 when President Barack Obama’s visit to Chicago that year prompted similar social media claims that his decision was unprecedented.

In fact, President George W. Bush made alternative arrangements in 2002, as did President Bush Sr. on all four Memorial Days during his tenure, and President Ronald Reagan on four out of eight occasions during his two administrations.

As he did for Veterans Day, President Clinton attended ceremonies at the Tomb of the Unknowns on every Memorial Day during his eight years as president. :

Too bad that your lip flaps so much with even fewer positive thoughts.
