President Obama reminded America of the kind of character required of a president, while Donald Trump spent the day ranting about his own petty gripes without mentions the sacrifices of the fallen on Memorial Day.
Video of Obama:
Here is what Obama said about America’s fallen heroes while speaking at Arlington Cemetery, “A nation reveals itself not only by the people it produces, but by those it remembers. We do so not just by hoisting a flag, but by lifting up our neighbors. Not just by pausing in silence, but by practicing in our own lives the ideals of opportunity and liberty and equality that they fought for. We can serve others, and contribute to the causes they believed in, and above all, keep their stories alive so that one day, when he grows up and thinks of his dad, an American like David Wheeler can tell them, as well, the stories of the lives that others gave for all of us.”
Meanwhile, Donald Trump remembered those who paid the ultimate sacrifice by going on a Twitter rant about the judge in the Trump University case:
Trump did manage to add a tweet on Tuesday morning that whined about the media coverage that his fundraiser for vets generated:
At no time on Memorial Day did Trump mention that sacrifice made by those who gave their lives for this country. Instead, Trump obsessed over his own petty personal issues.
Among the many jobs that a president has is to be the conscience of the country. At times of great tragedy, think of the many mass shootings during the Obama presidency, the President has had to lead the country through times of grief.
With a single paragraph in a single solemn speech, Obama demonstrated what voters should expect out of their president. With a series of tweets on the same solemn day of remembrance, Trump revealed that he did not have the depth required of a President Of The United States.
