When the President spoke about the Vietnam War he said, “It was a stupid war. Anyone who went was a sucker.” Per @JenGriffinFNC : This former official heard the President say about American veterans: “’What’s in it for them? They don’t make any money?’ It was a character flaw of the President: he could not understand why someone would die for their country, not worth it.” MORE from @JenGriffinFNC Regarding the President’s July 4th military parade planning, during a planning at White House after seeing the Bastille Day parade in 2017, the President said regarding the inclusion of “wounded guys” “that’s not a good look” “Americans don’t like that.” Also from @JenGriffinFNC : re John McCain, “the President just hated John McCain. He always asked, ‘Why do you see him as a hero?” Source confirmed POTUS did not want flags lowered but others in the White House ordered them at half mast. There was a stand off, President relented. Per @JenGriffinFNC , this is all acccording to a former senior Trump administration official who was in France travelling with the President in Nov 2018. AND, per @JenGriffinFNC former official said re: the French trip to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I: “The President was not in a good mood. Macron had said something that made him mad about American reliability and the need perhaps for a European army... “...He questioned why he had to go to two cemeteries. ‘Why do I have to do two?’ His staff explained he could cancel, l but he was warned, ‘They (the press) are going to kill you for this’.” He (The President) was mad as a hornet when they did.” Per @JenGriffinFNC reporting Finally per @JenGriffinFNC “When asked if POTUS could have driven to the Aisne-Marne Cemetery, this former official said confidently, no security reason not to drive there- “The President drives a lot. The other world leaders drove to the cemeteries. He just didn’t want to go.”threadreaderapp.com
