Trump suggested Wednesday he might skip his oldest son's upcoming wedding and social media had a field day.
Asked by a reporter whether he planned to attend Don Jr.'s Memorial Day weekend nuptials with Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson, Trump was less than enthusiastic.
"He'd like me to go, but it's gonna be just a small little private affair, and I'm gonna try and make it," Trump said. "I said, you know, this is not good timing for me. I have a thing called Iran and other things."
The president didn't stop there. "That's one I can't win on," he added. "If I do attend, I get killed. If I don't attend, I get killed. By the fake news, of course."

(39,158 posts)Seriously, no one expects you to solve Iran over the Memorial Day weekend - or ever, for that matter. You're too stupid.
I have no idea what press he's thinking is going to "kill him" by reporting. Would that they actually could...

(39,158 posts)I don't know what media people think are kissing his ass except for the RW media.
The NYT isn't kissing his ass today. Peter Miller news analysis above the gatefold.

(151,586 posts)When I got married the second time, my family was confused. They liked my previous wife. Hell, I liked my previous wife. She just fell in love with some other woman and wanted her freedom. So, I said, "Go for it!" I got a hug and a goodbye. We had a nice, neat uncontested divorce, decided how to split everything up and went on our ways. Shit happens.
Soon, I encountered the woman I am now married, too. We met at a computer trade show, COMDEX. She moved to California. On the day the divorce was final, we got married in the front yard of my house there, which was now owned outright by me.
Like I said, my parents were confused. They didn't know why the divorce had happened, and I didn't share the reason with them. But, they came up to the Central California Coast to attend the garden wedding. My new wife's parents and sisters came from Illinois and Florida to the wedding. We paid for their tickets and the hotel they stayed in.
It was a wedding, for Pete's sake. Everyone had a good time. We ate Pizza that evening, but had gone to a very nice restaurant the night before. Everyone hung around until after midnight at my house, except my parents and siblings, who drove three hours home in the afternoon.
Everyone came. We all get along. My previous wife didn't come to the wedding, although she could have. My local friends all showed u p. We were going to get married next to the Christmas tree in the house, but it's California. It was 75 degrees outdoors, and there's this huge, weird looking tree in the front yard, so we moved it out there. The officiant was a musician friend of mine who had a online ordination and did weddings as a side hustle.
Lots of laughter and fun. It was a wedding. People who care about you come to your wedding.
Donny Badger Trump Don't Care! about any damned thing. He'll be a no-show at his son's wedding.
