The shameless chutzpah of this wheezing gasbag, a selfish, superficial draft dodger lecturing those who will serve on the duties of someone serving in the military.

If it were to happen, let it be from a wholesome coming to their senses.

The guy who said "The president WILL NOT BE QUESTION" leaves behind an unmistakable stench when he ghost-writes for Trump.

It's more of that Kim Jong Un "Hey, maybe we'll just shoot you" attitude that Trump LOVES saying out loud.

The old Trump nonsense about telling cops to hit the person's head on the door frame when shoving them into the back of a police car.

No matter how concerning Trump's WORDS are, he has a deep-rooted need to see people physically hurt, and with as much cruelty and sadism as possible.

It essentially said that the "speech" was "well received," but there was nothing approaching the rapturous ecstasy of Trump addressing his flock at a MAGAt rally.

I imagine that, since it is West Point, there is a certain pressure to applaud when the president speaks, even though he's up t here in a red hat, "riffing" like a perv madman.

After Trump left, I'm sure the cadets appropriately processed what he had to say.
