[h=2]Donald Trump blasts Obama's trip to Japan: The Donald calls the President's visit to Hiroshima 'pathetic' and asks why he didn't mention Pearl Harbor[/h][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
[/FONT]Trump bashed the president on Twitter Saturday, reminding his followers that 'thousands of American lives' were lost that day - and using the hashtag #MDW, for Memorial Day weekend. The presumptive GOP nominee told the crowd at a San Diego rally Friday (pictured left) that Obama's visit to Hiroshima was 'fine' - as long as he didn't apologize. 'Now our president is right now...' he began. The crowd booed, to which Trump replied: 'You're right, it's pathetic.' The President (pictured right hugging Hiroshima survivor Shigeaki Mori, who spent years getting recognition for American POWs killed during the blast) didn't directly mention the Japanese offensive on Pearl Harbor and instead addressed the use of nuclear bombs in a speech at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial.

Bill Kristol has been wrong for 2yrs-an embarrassed loser, but if the GOP can't control their own, then they are not a party. Be tough, R's!

Didn't know Weld was getting back into politics, former Gov of MA. Good to see. Too bad maybe like 1% of the country knows who the hell he is. Don't think Johnson is gonna get a VP "bump" from that 1.
Kristol meant someone in the establishment Republican sphere I think. Although he is likely just talking out of his ass.
Kristol has beating that drum for awhile. His latest tweet…
Just a heads up over this holiday weekend: There will be an independent candidate--an impressive one, with a strong team and a real chance.

Sometimes I think people like Kristol do shit like that to try and convince themselves that they are somehow still relevant.
[h=6]- MAY 30, 2016 -[/h][h=1]NO ‘POLITICAL STUNT’: DONALD TRUMP SETS THE RECORD STRAIGHT ON HIS FUNDRAISING FOR MILITARY VETS[/h]The Washington Times
For months the press has offered catty speculations about Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s efforts to raise money for military veterans and wounded warriors. Since January, multiple reports have questioned how much money had been raised, where the funds went and whether Mr. Trump donated personally or through the Donald J. Trump Foundation. Several news accounts framed the fundraising as a campaign tool rather than a heartfelt gesture; Mr. Trump’s critics time and again cast him as disingenuous, eager to use vets as a “political stunt.”
On Tuesday morning Mr. Trump reveals all during a press conference at Trump Towers in New York City. There are some numbers already afoot: DonaldTrumpforVets.com, an official site established in January, clearly states it raised $1.7 million for military causes. A recent Forbes magazine analysis also found that the Trump Foundation donated $5.5 million to 298 charities during a four-year period ending in 2013, though the report cited Mr. Trump for donating $57,000 to seven organizations that directly benefited vets. Local New York vets who do not support Mr. Trump plan to demonstrate outside of the building, according to Americans United for Change, a progressive group.
Meanwhile, Mr. Trump praised the 16,500 U.S. Border Patrol agents who recently endorsed him, tweeting Monday that their support proved that his promise to secure the “wall” between the U.S. and Mexico was a viable one.
“We need a person in the White House who doesn’t fear the media, who doesn’t embrace political correctness, who doesn’t need the money, who is familiar with success, who won’t bow to foreign dictators, who is pro-military and values law enforcement, and who is angry for America and not subservient to the interests of other nations. Donald Trump is such a man,” the organization noted in their endorsement.
