It was a rainy day, some three years ago, that we traveled to the American Cemetery in France. It is located not far from Omaha Beach and the other locations of D-Day. I post this because, as we laid a wreath at the memorial, a French official came out and shared how much the people of France appreciate what our country did for them in two wars. I post this too because two older folks and their preteen (at the time) granddaughter faced the rain that our current President could or would not. I try to come up with an excuse for him not going, but I am unable to find one. The people of Europe -in my experience - think Mr. Trump is inadequate and feel sorry for the American people having to deal with him. What bothers me is that our country was a leader of the world community only three years ago, and now has lost the confidence of the other nations.
