Every day, i witness the anger of the progressive left (on this board and on TV) & how little it takes to trigger that anger and venom.

Those of us in the middle (who supported a non-politician for the Presidency) see no problem with a person singing the anthem. (My father who served in WW2 always sang the anthem). To call 40 million people "Dregs" is not the way to make friends or influence people.

Your venom, anger and condescension is noted....as is the marginalized importance of those who continue to sit on their pitty pot & squeal in hysterics with their hair on fire.

Who is angry? We are laughing at this national embarrassment. At him - not with him.

Yeah.....like 96.5% of us that don't sing it every day.

It's probably best to get one's panty in a wad over something more substantive.

It was certainly not out of disrespect, but purely an action of love for this country.

Donald Trump has always had an insatiable love affair with this country.
History of this man will show that all of you,( if you care to embark on finding the facts concerning him), are short on knowledge of Mr. Trump.

He loves his country, and the national anthem, regardless of where it is presented, is the strongest symbol of the country he loves so much.

Why would he not embrace this masterpiece with joy in his heart?
As I said, he was not disrespecting anyone, but rather showing the world he has great love for this country.

You people seriously need to lighten up, and for once realize, that unlike the previous white house tenant, we have a President that really loves,and respects his country, and all it stands for.
The playing of the national anthem is a joyous occasion for our President, regardless of where, or when it is played.

Perhaps for many of you posting in this thread, it would have been more appropriate to play the death march, instead of our national anthem.

One thing many people, including those outside this forum, should understand is, memorial day is not, and should never be, a day of mourning,but a day of celebration of the lives our service people surrendered in an effort to keep this nation free.

Rather than mourn these brave people, we should be celebrating, with joy that we had those among us who loved this country enough, to give of themselves to ensure it's continued freedom.

Bob.
Horse pucky! It's called memorial day for a reason and it ain't about celebrating anything!

Oh brother; now its a total re-write of the modicums of respect and decency shown for over two hundred years of history to suite a putz who can't keep still during a memorial service.....riiiiight!

No level to low.....

There were MANY angry posts. Particularly the one I quoted.

Yours appears to be more condescending than angry. Which is also a word I used to describe the comments in this thread Starkey.

No, in the instance of what we are talking about the failure to understand the difference between mispronouncing a word and acting in a childish manner is yours and yours alone. Congrats!

I think this thread can officially confirm that the left has completely and totally lost their minds over Trump.

Just look at most of the posts in this thread. Enough said. Their party is in worse shape than i originally thought.

Pseudobulbar affect.

It is a condition which is secondary to organic brain disorders/neurological disorders.

It is sometimes co-morbid with Alzheimer's, ADHD, and Parkinson's disease.

Sometimes it shows up after a stroke or other injury to the brain.

There are medications to treat it.
