IAVA Asks Country To #GoSilent To Honor Those Who Have Fallen | Morning Joe | MSNBC

  1. Excellent idea, I shall show my respect and solidarity with the VETS by ensuring I stay silent at the given moment, from Scotland. 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    1. Americans have been silent all ready for three-plus years while a con man psychopath runs the country and has access to Newk’s. I don’t think we need more silence. And I say that as a veteran

    2. Debate Me! I absolutely agree, but sometimes just for a moment, silence can be louder and more powerful than all the grey noise. Imagine we muted trump every time he spoke… I’m a loud activist Scot, but when I’m silent I’m being very serious. With the utmost respect, thank you for your service. 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

  2. God Bless all of our fallen American citizens to the Coronavirus.
    And God Bless our military service members from past wars and present.
    America show your support and wear your masks to help keep America stong and going!!

    1. Please don’t bless anyone that doesn’t do anything. Why your blessing people tens of thousands of us will continue to die. We need to stand up and take action and stop talking and social media. It’s been three years with a con man psychopath with access to Newk’s. At what point in time will the American people take action?

    2. @Debate Me! I have been wondering same thing.
      Maybe it’s because that what donald dump wants.
      And if it happens he could stay president.
      So we may need to be patient so that don’t happen.
      But make sure to vote and then let’s see what happens.
      So keep the upper hand and stay safe and stay home.
      🖕donald dump!!

    1. Yes selfish disgruntled white people who have a chip on their shoulder. I like the idea of Service to the country for all.

  3. another sign of a failed country. they want your money but the vet would have to beg to get help.

  4. I served with Marines in the 60s and I’m here to tell you, they had real grit. They fought with honor and courage.
    To all who served, or will serve I Salute you all. Stand up Anerica, stand proud.

    1. My brother served as a Marine in the 60’s, and went to Vietnam. He did not make it back alive from Vietnam. Please remain proud.

  5. The photo of Humpty taking a knee on the golf green at 3:00pm… priceless.

    Or, better yet, the photo of him driving his golf cart with a smile on his face at any time. The idea of the Memorial day means nothing to him. The 100,000 dead US citizens mean nothing to him. He has committed so much corruption and crime that not getting reelected is a sure prison sentence. Think this orange maggot is going to respect anything? Fools!

    1. and yet nothing has been proven, only in your bias feeble mind. The Russian collusion thing did not work so let us bring him down with innuendoes and false charges because we all know you and your kind can rule so much better. Wait till a democrat gets in there, which by the way will not be in the next 12 years. you can be sure that the civility shown by the disappointed HILLARIOUS voters will be magnified and then we can finally go out into the streets and fight this thing with armament, wont that be fun

  6. Kudos to all the great patriots that have made such a sacrifice. Some voluntarily and some by force.

  7. To my Grandfather Specialist Gilbert Martin, German POW WW2, Freed by his brothers in 1944.
    What america was!

  8. The”Coward in Chief” cares nothing about people who sacrifice their lives for the country “I take no responsibility”

  9. Boneheadspurs hasn’t golfed in 3 months, give him a break, it’s the only time he’s not doing damage to America.

    1. @Armin cheap price to pay to have Boneheadspurs to be distracted from his destroy America agenda.

    1. That idea is a recipe for disaster. It would mean a gang like mentality, sighting the end of the era of Rome when the government was “running out of money to pay soldiers” (don’t believe that personally) so the soldiers were given free reign to pillage as their campaigns wore down.

      I am not happy in any way that the wealth is so unevenly distributed except for the manner in which it is done because other options are dangerous and chaotic.

  10. i feel sorry for those who were LIED TO, and died for nothing ..well except for the profit of a few

  11. Excellent idea. It’s the least we can do, a single silent moment for those who have lost their lives in service of this country.
