Drenched in criticism for letting rain cancel his visit to an American World War I cemetery, President Trump on Sunday braved Parisian showers to attend another solemn ceremony honoring veterans of what was called the Great War.
His visit to the Suresnes American Cemetery and Memorial in suburban Paris capped a diplomatically difficult visit to France, during which Trump endured not-so-subtle criticism from French President Emmanuel Macron and other world leaders.
At one point, he looked at a group of aged veterans of World War II who watched the event from a covered space.
You look so comfortable up there, under shelter, as were getting drenched, he said.

(9,874 posts)The fallout from Trump bailing out of a cemetery visit yesterday was so bad his staff probably insisted he go to a cemetery and by the look on his face he hated having to do it.
