The National Park Service diverted nearly $2.5 million in entrance and recreation fees primarily intended to improve parks across the country to cover costs associated with President Trump’s Independence Day celebration.

2.5 mil not including the military costs. So you know it’s pretty close to 4-5mil for total US tax dollar expenditures. Great for the top 1% who pay no taxes. Not so great for our Military Personnel, National Parks Services and those who actually have to work and pay taxes for trump’s celebration.

I haven't seen any totals on cost because as of yesterday the Trump admin had not told anyone the cost, if they even know themselves. His last military parade was going to cost $92 mil. We know this one cost Parks 2.5 mil minimum.

Had our forefathers not have secured those airports American troops would have been massacred by British jets dropping smart bombs on them.

If there's one thing you can never accuse Trump of, it's dropping a smart bomb in one of his speeches.

For all you history buffs out there, Fort McHenry was during the war of 1812.

It seems obvious to me that something either got transposed or they had a teleprompter error. Please enjoy the liberal cartoon of the day and think you won something. All of you made fools of yourselves whining about a speech that hadn't happened yet.

In other words, amateur hour once again.

Let's assume for a moment that there was a technical glitch. What we then witnessed was this dolt making crap up again in ways that continually display what a D- student he was all those years ago, when he thought school was stupid.

What TelePrompTer glitch could be responsible for him talking about Revolutionary troops closing airports in 1776?

Dawg: every family has its 'Crazy Uncle Don.' Responsible families don't let that uncle talk to normal people in public, let alone grab a megaphone and blast his ignorance from the steps of the town's monument. Get your boy a muzzle, for the sake of your own credibility. Every time you defend him when he sounds like this... you sound like this.



There really is such a thing as 'Trump Derangement Syndrome.' We hear evidence of it every time he makes noises spill out of that hole at the bottom of his face.

History will look at Trump, as the hypocritical representation of The United States of America

I know for fact, people did not die for this. Mainly directed at you, the state of Ohio.

I need a 3 term Democrat, to finally eradicate the south, and republican ideology. Between wealth disparity, climate, gun control, and religious hypocrisy.

You should all be absolutely ashamed of yourselves

Not sure you understand my stance. trump did exactly what I figured he would. He wasted a ton of tax payer money for an opportunity to prove how much of a mouth breathing idiot he is.
He proved me correct. In both aspects.
He might as well have said...
“George Washington won the battle of LaGuardia freeing terminal 6 from British Airways.”
At least I would have thought it was tongue in cheek. As it was his ramblings were truly from a deep place of poor education and lack of intelligence. He’s a moron. He put it on display for the world to see. ‘Murika.

He read from a teleprompter. I'd love to see you give a 45 minute speech without a single mistake.

You do realize his claim is that the teleprompter broke and when it was working, it was hard to read because of the rain.

Quote:
Trump blames 'airports' gaffe on teleprompter

He told crowds on 4 July the Continental Army "took over the airports" during the American Revolutionary War in the 1770s.

Observers quickly pointed out there was no air travel in 18th Century America.

Explaining away the slip-up on Friday, Mr Trump also said it was hard to read the teleprompter in the rain.

During his "Salute to America" speech at the Lincoln Memorial on Thursday, he was talking about the year 1775 when he said: "Our army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do."

Critics pointed out the rebels could not have seized airports more than a century before the first powered flight - credited to the Wright brothers in 1903 - took off.

In the same sentence, Mr Trump also appeared to date a battle at Fort McHenry to the American Revolution, when it unfolded decades later during the War of 1812.

Outside the White House on Friday, Mr Trump said: "I guess the rain knocked out the teleprompter.

"I knew the speech very well so I was able to do it without a teleprompter but the teleprompter did go out and it was actually hard to look at anyway because there was rain all over it but despite the rain it was just a fantastic evening."


The president spoke to reporters as he departed with First Lady Melania Trump for the weekend to his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey.

https://www.bbc.com/news/48885319


So follow along, shall we?

1. It was hard to read.

2. It went out.

3. It was no problem because he knew the speech very well.

It seems he knew it so well that Britain having an air force in 1776 was from memory. So which of his excuses are you going with?

If you actually tried to comprehend what the man said, he said this was his thoughts. He believed that air travel and warfare from the air existed in 1776. There's a difference between a gaffe and stupidity.

And what did Trump think of people using teleprompters?

Quote:
When President Barack Obama was in office, Donald Trump repeatedly ridiculed him over the use of a teleprompter — a form of electronic cue cards — to deliver speeches, even though teleprompter use has long been common for presidents and other politicians who must deliver lengthy speeches often with little preparation. At the same time, Trump boasted of his own supposed ability to deliver speeches without a teleprompter, once asking reporters, “Isn’t it nice that I’m not one of these teleprompter guys?” according to The New York Times.

Trump amplified his attacks on teleprompter use when it came to his 2016 presidential election opponent, Hillary Clinton, repeatedly slamming her for delivering speeches aided by a teleprompter. As Politico recounted, he once ridiculed her for allegedly having one of “the biggest teleprompters” he had ever seen.

TelePrompTer slams:

Jealousy on display.
He hates those folks because they actually can read fluently.

I love when he sticks to the screen.

Flat affect, halting, robotic... like those hapless 3rd graders being forced to read a paragraph of Dick, Jane & Sally in front of the class.

There is actual video footage - sorry I can't copy the link, for some reason - showing those airports being taken over a couple centuries ago.

rofl Proving the point that trump can’t read very well. You voted for a guy that can’t read or write as good as the average third grader. No wonder he has as many goofs as he does. The potus is basically illiterate. Dumber then a box of rocks. Enjoy.

I don't know what's stupider. That fact that Trump flubbed part of a long speech and a bunch of idiot libs think it was intentional, or that they can't get it through their heads that this happens sometimes.

Obummer was great at reading, but every other word was "um" when he ad libed. W made up words as he went. Hitlery always had her point and wave to the crowd, or cackled and coughed. Whoop-de-do.

Never said it was intentional. Quite the opposite. He did his best at reading a speech. He’s too much of an idiot to not mess it up. It’s more complicated than his typical Dick and Jane story time books. He probably ran into a word he couldn’t remember how to pronounce so he went rogue and vamped. What we got was the result of his slow witted brain mixed with his poor education level.
Defend him all you want. He’s a moron. It’s obvious to anyone that’s honest with themselves.

Actually taking up for Trump here, he just fell back on word salad when the teleprompter got ahead of him. He didn't have a clue what was going to come out of his mouth because he doesn't control his own brain very well.
