Thanksgiving dinner.....a-la Trump....

[nat4900]

Harponica does help to bump this thread rather nicely.....
See, this idiot is worth something....LOL

 

[harmonica]

I was 0341
since you were not a grunt, you'll have to look that up
even on ship, we had ''less duties''/off for THKG
we would not be in the field if we were on base
I spent my THKG on ship or on base..if on base we were off, except for guard duty

Now you go from being a squid to a grunt?

Lying piece of shit.

You cannot even keep your stories straight...I am calling bullshit on your story...10 to 1 you never served a day in your life.

I was not a grunt but I spent a shit load of time in the field, it is the nature of being a Marine.

One of the things about the field you would not know about is the oppressive boredom, days off mean nothing because there is not shit to do on one.

A visit from a DV was a nice diversion and since they (including the CIC) arrived unannounced, there was no prep work involved.

You really are clueless on this.

That is a fact.

The words "you never served" don't leave the lips of any vet who knows why they served.

If you are a vet and you've said that to someone, you essentially shit on your uniform. And don't put miltary insignia ballcaps in the rear window of your town car. That is lame too.

I can say it as much as I want
you never served
you never served
etc etc etc

Yes. You can say it. The fact that you do forces me to lose any respect that I might have had for your service. You're a weak man.

Since Abraham Lincoln, presidents have honored our troops in war zones by braving the environment and sharing a meal with them.

Well, our beloved Trump has chosen to celebrate the Thanksgiving dinner in "war-torn" Mar-a-Lago, bravely choosing to, instead, calling our troops by telephone and asking them if they're happy to celebrate this important day away from their families.

The highlight of all this can also be seen when Trump was asked by someone what HE was most thankful for on this holiday......Trump's answer ???

Trump is most thankful for his own existence, as America's savior.......

Hard to make this stuff up.....Its "reality" a-la Trump.

We all have the "relative" challenge on Thanksgiving, but can you imagine having to invite the Trumps? No wonder they eat in a restaurant.

the non-military jackasses here have no idea what serving in the military is like
so their opinions are crap if they try to be arrogant

again--you non-serving jackasses sound very STUPID/etc
we DON'T care if the POTUS visits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
in fact, if he visits it's a pain in the ass because we have to do extra work/etc
we are GLAD he doesn't visit

Uh-huh.
Maybe you've changed your tune since Trump was elected, covering his ass is time consuming, isn't it?
But maybe the TROOPS would appreciate a real visit instead of a call-in from a resort in Florida.
DId you bother to think about that, or does your big fat bi-assss keep getting in the way?

please keep up
they don't give a damn if he visits or not
they[ POTUSs] NEVER visited us !!!!!!!!!!!

it never crossed our minds
no one ever mentioned it
no one thought about it
we just wanted to get home/etc if we were on base
we just wanted to get our meal and get some rack time if deployed
the POTUS visiting was as far away from our minds as could be
we had other things on our minds
NO, we couldn't care less if he visited or not

 

[harmonica]

we want girls/beer/food/sleep
not the POTUS
if fact they did have ''strippers'' [ dancers ] come to the base one time
much more welcomed than any POTUS

 

[bodecea]

The people that the CIC normally visits on Thanksgiving are troops in the field, where there are no days off. That is the whole reason for the visit to thank them for that.

But being a squid you would not know about the field.

Obamaturd called the troops on the telephone!



Obama Thanksgiving: Call troops, dine at WH - CNN.com

Obama visited Troops in Afghanistan and Korea during the same year as your picture, 2014. Trump never visited combat troops. The chance of wet hair prevented him form visiting a cemetery in France. That was the purpose of the trip.

The troops love Trump. Not obamaturd!

Support for Trump is fading among active-duty troops, new poll shows

Not anymore... He fading fast and that is before memorial weekend...

So much Trump hate yet the country is doing fine, and we have a great economy with most people working.

• Germany is doing better.
• Trump has tripled Inflation
• Increased borrowing by 40%
• Dow Jones is down on the start of the year
• Climate Change is going to cause huge economic havoc

Everything you say is just off.

The Fleet Marine Force does not just apply to those Marines on ships, that is just nonsense. When I retired I was transferred to the Fleet Marine Corps, Reserves...yet I was not on a ship!

When it is being talked about the POTUS going to see the troops in the field, nobody is talking about him going into the bush with a recon team, yet you thought that is what was being talked about.

You are the first Marine I have ran across in 29 years that listed the ships he was on by their type and not their name. What ships were you on and with what units?

I didn't call you a duck, I called you a squid and you did not correct me. Also, in 29 years of being a Marine I never heard a Marine call a sailor a duck, just squid.

And, since I am the type to support what I claim, these are for you...
