Trump wishes Americans a happy Mother's Day

Source: The Hill


BY AVERY ANAPOL - 05/13/18 09:05 AM EDT




President Trump wished Americans a happy Mother’s Day in a video message on Sunday.

In the 80-second video, the president spoke about his own mother, as well as the mothers throughout U.S. history whose “love and courage and devotion” he said have helped shape the nation.

“America’s strength has come from the love and courage and devotion of our mothers,” he said. “Through their grit, determination and incredible spirit, they pioneered the West and settled the frontier.”

He also discussed his own mother, Mary MacLeod, who was born in Scotland and died in 2000.

She is doing what she has always done, selling herself for the top dollar. Didn't tRump's mother once say "What kind of a son have I raised?" This was many years before the orange ass became president (with gop/Russian money)

He has no respect for women, which makes me think his mother wasnt very nice, and both parents were poor role models.

that no normal self respecting mother would be proud of, Mr. Don the Con russian mobster traitor.

All I want for mothers day is for him to resign. Maybe drop dead.

aloof and detached from her kids from what I read. Kind of narcissistic...did her own thing. Theres an article out there somewhere on the internet.

But I actually meant he is the sob.

a girl doesn't get invited 'out of country' until they show their bodies.

With few exceptions, the women who pioneered the west and settled the frontier were white. Of course, native american/indigenous women were not pioneering or settling, but actually living there first. Most black women back then were brought as enslaved. Trump managed to deliberately keep the focus on white women.
