Trump Changes (Obviously Bullshit) Story About The Helicopter. "He Didn't Want To Disrupt Traffic"

After twitter followers plastered the Trump twitter account with thousands of pictures of Barack Obama carrying out his Presidential duties in the rain, Trump sent prolific lying machine Sarah Huckabee-Sanders out to try out ANOTHER story. Just throw some garbage out into the streets, and see if anyone stops to sniff it, as it were. You know, "I don't see any reason why it WOULDN'T be the Russians. Yeah, that's what I meant..."

Apparently, Trump didn't want to go to the Aisne Marne ceremony because he kindly and altruistically didn't want to disrupt traffic in Paris. (Um...the motorcade went to Aisne Marne cemetery whether you were in it or not, dumbass. Try another story. Third time lucky. Or better yet, just admit you were too lazy to drag your ass away from the TV set in the U.S. Ambassador's residence. Your followers will still love you.)

The latest White House line:

"President Trump did not want to cause that kind of unexpected disruption to the city and its people," White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement. She also noted that the trip to Aisne-Marne was 2.5 hours by car.

Unless you're walking (which trmpie was not about to do, and he didn't bring GolfCartOne). It's about 50 miles from Paris.

Is there NO END to her lies ? When she talks in her sleep is she still lying ?

The presidential limo ("The Beast&quot has a top speed of only about 60 mph, so its speed on the A4 would be slower than most cars. Even so, the round trip would still only be about 2.5 hours. Total!

As a NY'er, I know this fuck can give a shit about "disruption to the city and its people"


Sorry, this excuse does not compute.

This hundredth anniversary observance had no doubt been meticulously planned for some time, down to the last possible contingency - including a motorcade to the cemetery.

They could hardly have come up with a more lame excuse.

Since when did he start giving a fiddler's fu*k about the chaos his visits cause and the undue strain he puts on the places he visits? Seems like just a minute ago, (2 weeks?) when the shroom head HAD to go to Pittsburgh after the synagogue shooting despite the pleas from the city asking him to wait until they buried their dead. There is no end to his narcissism or no low he can't manage to go beneath.

It is as simple as that. If he drove to the cemetery he would not have had enough time to get in a round of golf, which he did yesterday.
