Trump’s No Limits Lying: The Korean War Return Of Remains Of Veterans To Their Parents!

Donald Trump is the most massive liar ever in American political history.

One could say that every person lies, and that every politician lies, and that every President lies.

It is part of the human condition, one could say.

But Donald Trump lies on the average of 6.5 times a day, over 3,000 times in office since January 20, 2017, and he has no shame or caution about the preposterous statements he utters in person or on Twitter.

He knows there are enough gullible people that he can say anything and have millions of people believe and accept what he says.

He knows about the “Big Lie” technique of Adolf Hitler, who promoted lies so regularly that it became like a religion to believe him, and to justify the war crimes that occurred in Nazi Germany.

But it takes a specially dishonest person to promote what Donald Trump said after the summit in Singapore with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.

Trump tells us that he asked Kim Jong Un to arrange for the return of remains of Americans who died in the Korean War of 1950-1953, as Trump has had so many appeals from parents of such soldiers to do so, or so he says.

Only stupid people would take this seriously, as the average American who served in the Korean War and died there would now be 87, assuming they were 20 when they died in the war.

That would mean their parents had to be born around 1910 on the average, to have a 20 year old son in the war in 1950, which means such parents would have to be close to or over the age of 110!

How many people in America, let alone the world, live to be 110, or even 100?

Infinitesimal numbers, almost non existent, is the answer.

Trump is so totally wrapped in his own narcissism that he truly believes people will believe this BS!

How can anyone be anything but totally appalled by this no limits lying?

60th Anniversary Of Korean War Truce Ending “Forgotten War”!

On luly 27, 1953, after three years and one month of a undeclared war, the Korean conflict, which killed 33,000 American soldiers, ended in a truce, and the establishment of a demilitarized zone, and an uneasy relationship between the Republic of South Korea and Communist North Korea, a tense atmosphere which has continued, and has come close to the beginning of a new conflict.

35,000 American troops remain in what has become the prosperous, democratic South Korea, expecting a major war at any time, and the United Nations, which led the war under American supervision and that of about 18 other nations, continues to have a role in the on-off negotiations to bring about a much hoped for, but unlikely, permanent peace treaty between the two Koreas.

Meanwhile, Communist North Korea remains the most closed society in the world, with the population being brutalized by three generations of a family that has brought the nation down to dire poverty and total fear, a true totalitarian society on the level of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin.

Korea remains a war that most Americans do not have a clue about, and most could not find Korea on a map, due to ignorance of our history after World War II, and the much greater controversies that swirled around the later Vietnam War.

Korea remains even today the most likely place for another major American commitment of troops, if South Korea is ever attacked by North Korea, whether conventional war or nuclear attack, since North Korea has been testing nuclear weapons and defying the world community, under the leadership of grandson Kim Jong Un, successor to Kim Il Sung, and Kim Jong Il!

The Korean War Memorial in Washington DC is a reminder of the sacrifices of our troops and the other nations which fought for the South Korean survival, and South Korea recovered from massive loss of life and property, and is a proud example of democracy today!

Only four American veterans of the Korean War serve in Congress, and none from World War II, as we see Congress today with pompous members who talk about war, and yet, in most cases, have never experienced military service. It is easy to send others to war, while one sits and pontificates and is ready to send others to fight!

Let us hope that no more blood is shed in the Korean peninsula, and that rationality and common sense rules!
