79 year old draft-dodging coward who called our Military "suckers and losers" squats & squirts a Memorial Day "message"

Trump marked Memorial Day with a Truth Social post that managed to honor fallen soldiers and attack Democrats in the same breath.

"Happy Memorial Day to all, including the Dumocrats, who disrespect our Military and all of the tremendous success that it has had over the last year," Trump wrote at 6am on the holiday. Memorial Day is traditionally one of the most unifying moments on the American political calendar, a day when presidents of both parties have set aside partisan conflict to honor the men and women who died in service to the country.

Trump did add to his attack, "God Bless those that have made the ultimate sacrifice. I love you all!"
