This is disgusting. This 'owner' sold his business 8 years ago to Gram- he had no business getting involved with this 'photo-op'. This administration is so full of crap they know no boundaries. Totally fake BS from the Liar in Chief.
No surprise.

The camera shop had been in the Rode's family for a CENTURY. And it was burned down.
The President does a tour of the damage with the FORMER OWNER, (whose family apparently owned this shop for a CENTURY), and he still owns the property on which the camera store sat,....


And you're getting worked up over this because...... why?

The camera shop is part of his family's legacy.

I do admire your determination to pretend to be outraged. Outstanding effort.
Liberal dont seem to understand the concept of "pick your battle" argument. They whine and complain about everything like some old biddy being the neighborhood gossip. Thing is..after about the 9000th infantile, extreme intolerant ranting that no one cares anymore. We just roll our eyes, and ask "what is it this time?"

It is nothing more than an annoying insect buzzing about.

Yes, if it HADN'T been a success, why would Biden "suddenly" have decided to leave his basement refuge to go there today? Oh, I'm sure he won't do any photo ops. Like I'm also sure he'll answer unscripted questions.

apparently they don't remember about the boy who cried wolf.

it applies to the cries of racism.
it applies to "he wants to be a dictator"
it applies to all the forms of collusion and conspiracy they've claimed for 4 years

there is only ONE "problem" they wish to solve, which is "get Trump".

Here's a quote from the real owner of the camera shop, that you conveniently decided to omit. In the grand scheme of all things concerning Trump, this is not that big a deal. It's just another simple case of him attempting to defraud the american public. Not unusual for a criminal

Quote:
Gram said it was deceptive for the president to refer to Rode as the owner of the camera shop and call it “his store.”

Gram also said he is disappointed that Rode’s comments praising the president were construed to reflect the views of current ownership.

A visit by Biden: compassion.

A visit by Trump: photo-op.

What's the big deal? At least DJT didn't do a Creepy Uncle Joe move and talk to a racist Jew-hater that idolizes Farrakhan.

I have no problem with including this quote, it actually makes the Gram guy come across as a tiny bit of a jackass, to be honest. And further proves my following opinion, in my eyes:

In my humble opinion, The TRUE owner of that camera shop was the man whose family started it over 100 years ago. The new owner has had it for 8 years. 8 years. Compared to THREE generations of the same family. Over 100 years the business has been going strong. That is no easy feat, as most people who own businesses will tell you. That's an accomplishment. And the guy still owns the property. So this is a NON issue.


I find it hilarious that people are actually whining about this.
But, it also says a lot about those who are. It says that you don't have much material to work with, so you have to twist something that most normal human beings would understand, into something bizarre.

Meh, I dont know about that.
My area was hit with a destructive tornado back in March causing 100 million in damages and killing 19. Citizens welcomed Trump when he came to assess the damage give condolences to those affected. When he left the sight and went to the shelter put in place for those who lost homes to personally speak with them he instructed the press that they were not welcome to be there. So much for photo ops.
