    Nope, sorry, I’m not buying into the Trump supporter propaganda

    He’s even congratulated Poland for the start of WWII...

    REPORTER: Do you have a message for Poland on the 80th anniversary of World War 2?

    TRUMP: "I do have a great message for Poland & we have Mike Pence, our vice president, is just about landing right now...I just want to congratulate Poland"

    Good call

    Given the choice, I would be playing golf also

    Well, I believe the real reason was because of the upcoming hurricanes and he wanted to be on the ground, ready to provide comfort and support to those affected. Luckily for those might be affected, golf got in the way...

    Many Trump just wants to make a stand? Or maybe he would like an American base in Poland named after him.....

    Probably. Further proving that he really doesn't understand the concept - as if the US's contribution has been out of the goodness of their hearts.
