News Flash! Trump cancels golf outing due to rain showers... YA THINK?

Every other President stood in the rain it's a disrespect to the men and women of the Arm forces!

Rain, rain, go away. Come on back for Obama Day :D. Face it folks ... Trump flys for him only and never for our country. Blamed Obama and Hillary for everything and did much worse and you cheer him? Millions in golf, thousands in lies, Friendship with advisaries, infiltrators.

POTUS owes no apologies. He’s done more for veterans then 95pct of his predecessors.

not a trump fan, but looks like he’s there. What happen exactly then?

He will be the first to tell everyone how much he loves and respects the military.....but apparently making sure he does not mess up that orangutan hair seems to be more important!

What a disgraceful piece of work Trump is.

Can trump supporters accept this?especially veterans

Disrespectful to our fallen soldiers

The rain made his bone spurs hurt. Boo hoo hoo. impeach45

Put yourself out Trump. Standing in the rain wont hurt you. Give some respect to those in the ground who fought and died whether it was raining or not.

I guess US is France's fair weather friend; not all weather friend.

Bone spur kept jum from attending.

Spoiler alert: There’s a twitter storm everyday. 😉

It's not the rain. TRUMP is burned out after his campaigning.

HE HAS NO PATRIOTIC FEELINGS AT ALL---WWI IS JUST A PHRASE TO HIM--KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT HISTORY--DOES NOT CARE. THE RAIN MIGHT MUSS HIS ORANGE HAIR --MAKE HIS ORANGE SPRAY TAN RUN ANOTHER EMBARASSMENT FOR AMERICA AND A SLAP IN THE FACE TO OUR MILITARY.

Out of sight, out of mind I guess....

What a assholl !!!!!!!!!!

I thought all Donald loved water...

Well, we already know he doesn't know how to close an umbrella..maybe he doesn't know how to open one either! Also, his lovely wife, Natasha, could have worn her, 'I don't care' jacket to this event!

What a fake 💩 patriot DJT 🤥💩dodged the draft 5 times during Vietnam to let poor inner city blacks and low to middle income whites die fighting for freedoms he’s trying to take away from🇺🇸 A little rain 🌧 is too much for the winey little b**ch 🇺🇸 troops fought in worse Impeach

Makeup problems 💁‍♂️

Ask William Henry Harrison.....Ask General Joseph Johnston,,,both that stood in ceremonial bad weather. F you.

Cue the doctored WH video of Paris weather today to explain why trump didn’t attend...

Draft dodging pu$$y back then.......still a pu$$y today!

What a disgrace!

I guess they should have made the President’s car waterproof. A large oversite there.

Don’t worry, he will distract the media with more trade war news and direct this on China like usual.

The rain didn't stop other world leaders from honoring our fallen American dead. I guess a wet bad hair day is a good excuse as I don't feel like it.

A 50 mile drive in a luxurious limousine could have been arranged👀! I hope EVERYONE comes down on Trump over this thoughtless act!

Don’t want to get his hair wet?

He forgot to bring along a water resistant hair wig.

...yawn... how many times in 8yrs did Obama visit this WW1 Memorial?

He doesn’t have an umbrella, raincoat and boots

Pu$$y trump

The Democrats made it rain on me

This ceremony was held to honor American soldiers who died in WW1. Trump was there to represent us and honor them. He is so self involved that he couldn't take the time to honor our dead. He is not worthy to be our President.

realDonaldTrump FoxNews Potus, pls clarify if this is true did u cancel due to rain or due logistics. Pls do clarify as opp will milk exploit to max.

馬鹿奴!お前は張り子か?英雄達は土の中!

Expect anything less from a five time draft dodger?

Go home !trump!Get out of Here !

Probably blames that on someone else!

His hair would have dissolved away. Or maybe he is a witch like from the Wizard of Oz. Trump case it be the Douche of Oz.

WUSS

Don’t they have umbrellas in France?

How fascinating! As long as Trump is able to spark Twitterstorm, we have nothing to worry about.....things are just fine and there’s always someone else to blame for all our existential angst. Happy Dayz

Try bone spurs

Even the most devoted Republican can not stand up & defend Trump after this disrespectful display! He was there to pay respects to the Fallen on behalf of the American people & instead he embarrassed the Office he holds! Not even the PressSec will be able to justify this one!

Treaty of Versailles has still not been ratified by United States. Was the war ever really over?

whpresscorps haha tough guy ! weakPesident

I wonder if the soldiers should have cancelled the war when the trenches filled with water and mud after rain in WW1!

If it was an SS cemetery trump wouldn’t cancel.

In addition to being a chronic liar, out potus Trump is a wuss!

realDonaldTrump DonaldBoneSpurs DraftDodgingTraitor

He did not to get his hair wet🤣🤣🤣🤣

Trump grievously disrespected every fallen American today for the sake of his own convenience. I truly do not know how much lower this shallow inadequate excuse for a man can go.

That answering the call to our military record still intact I see Don.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING IN THE RAIN?

Shameful

What do you expect from a draft dodger.

We all saw what happened to the Wicked Witch...

Trudeau is a much better man and leader than he could ever be!!

Coward !

lol.. a coward, a fake, basically that thing ain't human.

Never get a trump wet

Sad grandpa is scared his taupe will fall off.😂

Didn't want to mess up his hair?

Snowflakes melt in the rain

The Latest: Rain nixes Trump stop at US cemetery in FrancePARIS (AP) — The Latest on President Donald Trump in France (all times local): 12:55 p.m. The White House is calling off President Donald Trump's scheduled visit to a World War I cemetery due to poor weather. Trump was slated on Saturday to visit Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near the village of Belleau, France. It's the site of a 1918 battle in which the American and French repelled German forces. More than 1,800 Americans died there. The battle looms large in the history of the U.S. Marines Corps. Trump was supposed to participate in a wreath-laying and a moment of silence at the site. It has been raining in Paris all day and the weather prevented Trump from arriving via helicopter to the site, which is more than 50 miles east of the French capital. White House chief of staff John Kelly, a retired Marine Corps general, his wife and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will visit instead. We don't need your help. Our apologies. Please be patient while we correct the mistake of 62 million American idiots. Europe won't buy it. They now know you like we do.
