‘To him, you are nothing more than cannon fodder’

By Dave Ameling, Ossian

Belleau Woods, France, June 1918. This was the first and deadliest battle fought and won by the USA troops (Marines) in WWI.

June 2018, at the Aisne-Marne Cemetery, France held a ceremony honoring the soldiers who gave their all 100 years earlier. Almost 2,000 USA troops died, plus/minus 7,000 were wounded during the battle June 1-26, 1918. Plus, the British and French troops. The war ended on the 11th hour of the 11th month of 1918.

POTUS Trump flew there to represent the USA. It was raining that day. He “declined” to leave his hotel. 

‘My hair will get wet, besides they are losers and suckers.’ The troops in 1918 got more than their hair wet giving their all, so cadet bone spurs could become POTUS.

Presently, 2024. Adding more disrespect to USA troops, he went to Arlington National Cemetery. Section 60 has a ban on picture taking. He ordered his Secret Service detail to forcibly remove the cemetery employees trying to enforce the ban. He had political pictures taken. No tear gas was involved.

I am sorry we had veterans who swallowed their pride and voted for him. I feel you are not “losers and suckers.” He does! Allowing your commander-in-chief to denigrate you is painful. It would be great if you that voted for him would explain to us why you voted for the crook. To him, you are nothing more than cannon fodder.
