Midknight Review -- new and revised: While the WH was planning a Xmas visit to the troops weeks in advance, NBC and CNN were plotting to embarrass the President for not visiting the troops. He not only visited the troops, he took the First Lady.

While the WH was planning a Xmas visit to the troops weeks in advance, NBC and CNN were plotting to embarrass the President for not visiting the troops. He not only visited the troops, he took the First Lady.

NBC News criticized Trump on Tuesday for not visiting the troops over Christmas with an article headlined, “Trump Becomes First President to Since 2002 Not to Visit Troops at Christmastime.”

While it is unconfirmed what Trump is doing Wednesday, presidential trips to visit troops in war zones are not done spur of the moment. They take weeks of quiet planning with a select group of reporters invited to travel but sworn to secrecy. The Air Force, however, chose to not hide the flight from Andrews until the VC-25 was across the Atlantic and over Hungary.

See the article at Gateway Pundit for more details.

Trump used his self serving photo op with the troops to boost his ego...

Ten investigations? You are nuts. There were zero investigations done by members who were not tied to Obama and his administration. And lots of Seal Team members who are accusatory of Barack.

Let's return the favor, shall we?

CLINTON: You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about. That’s why I believe if we are fortunate enough to win back the House and/or the senate, that’s when civility can start again. But until then, the only thing that the Republicans seem to recognize and respect is strength. And you heard how the Republican members led by Mitch McConnell, the president really demeaned the confirmation process.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
