Republicans insult and dishonor fallen Danish Soliders just like Trump and Republicans shit on American Veterans

"We've never needed them.  We have never really asked anything of them.  They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and they stayed a little back, a little off the front lines". - Treasonous Draft Dodging Child Rapist Donald Trump declares Denmark and NATO didn't help in Afghanistan.

One of the things that is consistent with the Traitor trump and MAGA Republican Party is they will find a way to insult those who have made sacrifices including those who've made the ultimate sacrifice.  All while the disreputable Corporate Media still proclaims the Republicans are the Party of the Troops!

From the reporting,

COPENHAGEN, Denmark — The removal of flags commemorating fallen Danish veterans who fought in Afghanistan by staff at the United States embassy in the country’s capital has caused a public outcry.

The move came ahead of a silent march that will take place here on Jan. 31 to pay respect and show solidarity to the veterans following remarks made by U.S. President Donald Trump, which discredited the role NATO allied troops played during the war.

There is no way any career diplomat or anyone on the Embassy staff thought this was a good move; unfortunately, the current US Ambassador to Denmark is Kenneth Howery a member of the 'move-fast & break-things' PayPal Mafia with Elon Musk and Peter Thiel.  Son a move to please Trump and flex his powers as Ambassador, the rich billionaire asshole was like, Oh fuck off career loser bureaucrats!  I'm rich I know better than you!  Let's take down those flags and show those Danes who's the boss!  Ha ha ha, yes!

And after all why the fuck should he care?  In 4 years (or less) he won't be Ambassador anymore.  When he's through fucking up 70 years of international cooperation he'll jet off to chase storms and live in one of his mansions, enjoying the finer things in life, surrounded by his highfalutin' government service paraphernalia.   Some other jerk will have to try to repair the relationship.  And after all look at the upside?  If Trump, with Howery's help, manages to bully Europe into surrendering Greenland his name and legacy will resound through the ages.  All these Billionaire Assholes think they're Brad Pitt as Achilles in Troy (2004).

Armadillo, blurb from my T/F Film Fest booklet

Danish soldiers served in Afghanistan.  Denmark responded to 9/11 and the invocation of Article 5 of the NATO charter by spending and sending significant forces to Afghanistan for years.  

In 2011, at the True/False Film Festival, I watched the documentary Armadillo about the Danish NATO mission in Helmand Province in 2009-2010.  I never did any cross-nation work with Danish forces during my tour in Afghanistan, my small unit worked mainly with the Canadian forces, though the Danes were at the international base ivo Kabul and had forces in Afghanistan for the entire length of the "war".

But, shitting on long term allies is part and parcel of the treasonous trump administration.  If you recall Just Despicable Vance pulled a similar incident of utter disrespect towards Canada when trump was "joking" about Canada being the 51st state, posting Canada should, 'spare him their sob story about being America's closest friend'.

So, in his role as Vice-Troll, Just Despicable Vance also took time from his busy schedule of justifying extrajudicial killings of VA nurses by masked rightwing terrorists in Minneapolis, to attempt to insult Senator Tammy Duckworth, comparing her questioning of Micro Rubio to Forest(sic) Gump arguing with Isaac Newton.

First off all Forrest Gump is a Medal of Honor winner so, of course, Vance mirrors his president and shits on him and as Senator Duckworth points out Private Gump served in Vietnam when Bonespurs Trump was chickening out.  It's also a not-so-sly insult to Senator Duckworth who suffered severe debilitating injuries to compare her to Gump who was in the novel and film was crippled as a child.  So, all his white male followers can snicker and laugh at Senator Duckworth.

J.D. Vance is a despicable piece of shit. 

But, why was Vance attacking Senator Duckworth?  Because the Senator was asking criminal Rubio why the US had placed the roughly $500,000,000 in stolen Venezuelan petrodollars into a Qatari bank account.  Everything the Traitor trump administration should be doubted, questioned, and considered on it's face corrupt and illegal.
