... Trump said he plans to rename the holiday celebrated on Nov. 11 as "Victory Day for World War I."

"You know, I was recently at an event and I saw France was celebrating Victory Day, but we didn't," he said. "And I saw France was celebrating another Victory Day for World War II, and other countries were celebrating. They were all celebrating.

"We're the one that won the wars. ... And we could do for plenty of other wars, but we'll start with those two. Maybe someday somebody else will add a couple of more, 'cause we won a lot of good ones." ...

John Kelly confirms Trump privately disparaged U.S. service members and veterans (2023)
www.nbcnews.com

... Former Trump White House chief of staff John Kelly is blasting his onetime boss over disparaging remarks he says the then-president repeatedly made about service members and veterans and for what he called Trump's untruthfulness about his positions on various groups as well as on abortion.

In a statement to CNN published Monday, Kelly delivered a scathing criticism of former President Donald Trump while confirming reporting in The Atlantic in 2020 that detailed the comments he made during his presidency.

"A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all suckers' because there is nothing in it for them,'"

Kelly said of Trump. "A person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because it doesn't look good for me.'

A person who demonstrated open contempt for a Gold Star family -- for all Gold Star families -- on TV during the 2016 campaign, and rants that our most precious heroes who gave their lives in America's defense are losers' and wouldn't visit their graves in France." ...

He's obsessed with Obama. He's been trying to get something anything on Obama and have failed spectacularly. His only hope is to go after Biden and get him that way. Just sayin.
