1. LOL!

I wonder if he eve knows where that happened.

2. If a question begins with the words, "I wonder if Trump even knows,"

It’s a good bet to just assume the answer is no.

7. It was a rhetorical question

He’s beyond predictably ignorant and proud of it.

3. Six. Six Marines

From the wiki page on the Memorial
"The U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial's world-famous statue, which is based on the iconic photograph taken by Associated Press photographer Joe Rosenthal, depicts the six soldiers who raised of the second American flag at Iwo Jima in the Japanese Volcano Islands on February 23, 1945"

4. You have to look closely to see two of them:

You have to count legs and hands to see two guys are mostly obscured.

8. Five Marines

John Bradley, the only man to participate in both flag raisings, was a Navy corpsman.

There is a picture of the first flag coming down as the larger flag is being raised. I found out a couple of years ago that my seventh grade social studies teacher is in that photo. He was a 19 year-old marine at the time. He never said a word about it until recently.
