“Hey, Joe,” a quiet but familiar voice said to me from the doorway of a small room with plush furniture. The room was meant to provide as much comfort as possible for the families of military members on the worst day of their life: the day the remains of their loved ones are returned to them at Dover Air Force Base.
I had been alone in the room for only a few minutes and was exhausted but restless; the previous three days felt like three years and three minutes all at once, because so much had been taken from my family so quickly and irrevocably that I felt like I was

A heartrending article. Not anonymous, but by a still-grieving husband. Amazingly published by NBC News. Look at this beautiful young family, torn apart. Then read about the comfort and solace our President personally provided this husband.

Starting the day with tears and a lump in my throat. Thank you President Trump and God bless the Kent family.
Put this event up against Illary and Smidgen meeting the remains of the Benghazi heroes and lying to their families about a video.
Trump was not my first choice in 2016 but I jumped on the train when he was asked in an interview what he would do about ISIS (which Smidgen created through negligence) and he said that he would bomb the shiite out of them. Though he used the actual profanity. And less than 2 years later, ISIS was reduced to a few scattered crazies roaming in the desert.

What democrats want you to believe about this President is just a lie. They truly hate him with a force unheard of in my lifetime. I seriously believe they hate him more than any evil dictator in history. I just do not know why, but I expect it is because he knows who they are, what they have done, and what they intend to do to this country in the future. He has been the thorn in their side because he speaks for millions of patriots who have been waiting for a champion of their beliefs. He may be a wealthy billionaire but he feels the same way we do about this country. He somehow made it to the top of his profession with his love of country intact and more importantly, the will to fight for it when it was clearly headed in the wrong direction. People try and demean him because he did not serve in the military, but I do not know one politician who is willing to stand in the breach and fight tirelessly on behalf of the country and we the people like he does. To me, that is an exemplary service to this country. Everything he does is to make this country better and it’s people more prosperous. As the article explains, he clearly has compassion for the families who have lost love ones in these wars. You can’t fake that. God bless and comfort each of the families who have sacrificed their loved one to war. We are grateful for their courage and willingness to serve. Our hearts are filled with pride and grief as we honor their sacrifice. God bless and comfort them. God bless this President. Give him wisdom, strength and determination to continue to lead in a time when a steel spine and a soft heart must go hand in hand.

If you have not read the story about this man's wife, I highly recommend that you google it. It is an inspiring story.
Photo shows a beautiful family. That smallest child looks just like the father. Makes me smile that our good warrior men are fathering a new generation of Americans.

When I think about the amount of energy that the Left has spent hating President Trump, I ask myself, imagine what good they could have done for this country if they used that same energy for good instead of and evil. They may have found a competent and worthy candidate along the way. Unless this party of hate turns their priorities around they are headed for total annihilation and will destroy a generation of young folks in their path of destruction.

This is a gut-wrenching story. What a contrast between a President who truly cares about his military and those (you know who they are) who do not.

It must have hurt NBC to print this, I am amazed that this passed the editors.
The truth about Trump is so totally suppressed that it is wonderful to see it make it into the news occasionally.

Whatever editor at NBC News that allowed Joe Kent to tell this story, that totally refuted the Atlantic/Goldblum fake story about Trump dissing vets, is probably looking for another job right now.
That was a concerted Media Smear.

I know the DNC and media are trying to set up a scenario were President Trump is anti military... what were they thinking.... everyone knows what he has done to support the veterans and their families... so then... let's step back a moment and examine the DNC playbook....based on the newest quotes from hillary...pelosi...podesta.... it seems their new coup plan is to contest the results of the election by demanding a count of mail in fraudulent ballots to try an offset the winning ballots of November 3rd..and then have the military remove President Trump from the White House...the DNC must have co-operation from the military... hence their attempt at tarnishing the President's record....

How many times has POTUS visited Walter Reed? Way more than any other President I'm sure....there's usually barely a mention of it when he goes....and it's not for a photo op either....

Shannon was an amazing women. An original story can be found at the Washington Post 3/22/20
The President may still be calling the husband, as he does with so many.

The DC insider “UniParty” politicians, a lot of the high up bureaucrats, both civilian and military, and the globalist investor class want the endless Middle East Wars to continue to be endless. As those wars have become “cash cows” for the globalist investor class whose industries supply the military with foreign aid and war material. In that respect, the “UniParty” politicians who support that investor class, you better believe receive all sorts of paybacks and campaign contributions that keep them in office, with some of the “UniParty politicians family members also having insider shots at securing lucrative foreign aid and military contracts in those far off countries, then you have the high ranking military bureaucrats who view those endless wars as career enhancers.
President Trump is not a DC “insider” he is as far outside being a DC “insider” politician as anyone could be. That’s why the DC “insiders” have been trying to get rid of Trump through their endless hoaxes since he was elected. Those DC “insiders” oppose and resist, both covertly and overtly, Trump at every move as he has attempted to implement his “Make America Great Again”, “Put Americans first” foreign and domestic policy agendas and bring the endless Middle East Wars to a close with much of the deployed US military coming back to the USA.

This is a moving article! One thing written stopped me Cold..” senior leaders who ultimately bear the responsibility for sending men and women to their deaths in combat.”. No President Including President Trump.
Send our Military Men and Women to their Deaths! The USA Military is an all Volunteer Force. They are sent where they are needed to Fight for their Country, not to Die!

I finally can explain to Everyone Why they hate him soooo much. Read Lee Smith’s book THE PERMANENT COUP. Particularly chapter 12...”Obama’s Coup”. I am sure the rest of the book is just as good but I only received the book today. The author is outstanding!!! And it explains to the rest of us WHAT WE NEED TO DO.
