Trump's And Obama's Memorial Day Tweets Were A Lesson In Contrast—And People Definitely Took Notice

Monday, May 27, was Memorial Day, the holiday the U.S. uses to honor the brave men and women who have died in the line of duty.

President Trump acknowledged the occasion in a series of wordless tweets showing videos and pictures of himself at Arlington National Ceremony.




President Trump, who was overseas in Japan for Memorial Day, made a point of meeting with American troops stationed on an assault ship nearby. That didn't stop his critics, however, from pointing out his tenuous history with the military.

He DID, however, make a point of wishing the Japanese military a happy Memorial Day.


People felt that America's fallen soldiers deserve better.
