President Donald Trump Complained Kurds Didn't Help U.S. During World War II | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

    1. Harsh word from a draft dodger in chief , whos family has 5 generations of draft dodgers .
      Trump father did not help USA during WW 2 , he draft dodged also from Vietnam war and Korea
      Vietnam war , then called Indochina war , started 1946 and USA was part of that war .
      Bet grandpa Trump was in perfect age to serve in WW 1 .

    1. No Time For Hate yet he dimished the name of the late John McCain by criticizing the fact that he was captured. This guy doesn’t have a clue about what it takes to sacrifice for the country.

    2. Jeremiah Jeremecht Forget sacrifice for country, Trump doesn’t even KNOW the meaning OF sacrifice. Everything he’s ever had or known has been handed him on a platter. How could such one EVER understand the concept of ‘sacrifice’?

  1. Folks, Trump is simply Dumb. He has no knowledge on any topic. He got into the WH because he had a fake reality show that’s it! However, the public knows now the uneducated person he is. He has no idea what D Day was for or who was involved.

    1. Uneducated folks love Trump because it makes them feel better about themselves to have such a D Dumb person as our President.

  2. It’s kind of hard to ignore that he just decided to send US allies to their deaths in order to placate the President of Russia.

  3. Hes still pushing and pulling levers and buttons not knowing what they’ll do hoping one of them is a jackpot .

  4. thats like saying Trump and America didnt help during the holy roman crusades? during the middle ages honestly can this president get any more stupid?

    1. You could just go back four years before D-day to the Battle of France…

      Britain: check
      Canada: check
      USA: on a sunny beach somewhere sipping cocktails with the Kurds 😲

      If things had been different in 1940 then the great sacrifice that was the Battle of Normandy may not have been necessary.

      Just saying.

    2. Poor old, brave, Kurds, not even having a country of their own, having lost 10,000 men fighting ISIS, being reprimanded by a draft dodger. Makes you want to puke all over him!

    1. JPR… we do realise that there are decent people in the States but most of us can’t fathom how Donny has lasted so long.
      We can’t understand the blatant me-1st stance of the Republicans.
      How morals and values have been thrown out the door.
      Kia kaha America

  5. His intelligence is lower than that of a first grader, he lies more than all previous past presidents combined, and not to mention he’s mr. Bone spurs, a person who was too cowardly to serve in the military yet believes he has the absolute power over the entirety of the United armed forces, the most powerful and respected force in the world. Wake up Republicans!

  6. Turkey told trump what they were planning. He has betrayed, now he will try to justify his betrayal. He’s a real skunk.

  7. At this rate the US will become totally isolated in the world, completely friendless and no allies. Exactly what Vlad wanted from a Trump presidency.

    1. @Cancun American But, but someone’s got to educate the poor ignorant imbecile in the White House. Else he might injure himself. LOL.

    2. @robert gilleland
      *Donald is clearly an asset!*
      He’s just following orders.
      🤬🇷🇺👀

      *KEEP IN MIND* DJT 🤡👀
      3Wives DRUMPF (🤫real name)
      Trump University *shutdown* 🧐
      Trump Foundation *fraudulent* 💸
      *Personal Lawyer* in prison…
      *Campaign Manager* in prison

      *ALL FACTS* 💯🇺🇸

    3. Has anyone pointed out that the USA were not at the Battle of France four years earlier with, amongst others, Britain and Canada? Has anyone pointed out how the Battle of Normandy was a time of reckoning for the USA (because of their earlier absences)? That D-Day could have been avoided if the USA had stepped up to the plate sooner?

      Irony can be amusing. Not this time though.

  8. … and trump never helped in ANY war. Oh! I forgot! Those pesky imaginary ‘bone spurs’. Glad to see that they don’t bother him on the golf course where he spends most of his time.
