Wonder why CNN and MSNBC wouldn't be giving this tweet any coverage at all?
Then why did frvcvs start this thread last night? http://forum.surfer.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2729949#Post2729949

still think the guy is playing with fire.OTdos said:Compulsive lier that is in constant need of adulation
he can't go on his whole presidency tweeting like the way he's done for a year now. it's got o catch up to him at some point. just hope it's only he that suffers the consequences, and Cheeto Jr.
i was wondering if the MM would report on this and i'm glad that they are not - not only is it not news (and fwiw, i wish they would ignore a lot more, if not all, of Trump's tweets) - it's a blatant attempt to discredit any media that is critical of the Prez, regardless of accuracy. if you think that's acceptable, you're living in the wrong country - you're better suited to places like Turkey and North Korea.GromsDad said:

The media has done an absolutely fantastic job of discrediting itself over the past two years, don't you think? You are onto something though. They would be much better off if they would skip the fake outrage and biased breathless hysterics over everything Trump does and just go back to calmly reporting the news of the day.sussle said:

Trump Tweets Fake News
The implication was that the veteran had died fighting for his country. But the veteran’s tragic death occurred in the United States after his deployments. We know this because the 2014 photo is from The San Diego Union-Tribune.
"The veteran, Major Andrew Budenz, who was a Marine C-130 pilot in Iraq and Afghanistan, was killed in September 2013 in a motorcycle accident. He is buried at at Miramar National Cemetery in San Diego, and his wife, Jenn Budenz, was visiting his grave nearly every day when The San Diego Union-Tribune published that photo around Memorial Day 2014."
