    The Sikorsky VH-3D Sea King, the one we are most familiar with is the one commonly seen landing on the South Lawn of the White House;

    the Sea King is too large to fit aboard either the C-5 or the C-17 airlifter, so when the President travels and a helicopter is brought along, it is the VH-60N, which is the executive version of the UH-60 Blackhawk.




    The H-60 has a fuselage profile low enough that it can easily fit inside the large Air Force transport aircraft;


    To fly for HMX-1 is a HUGE honor for a Marine Helicopter Pilot and only the best of the best rise to this level.

    The Sikorsky dash 60 is used by every branch of the armed forces and by numerous overseas customers. Over 4000 have been built of the numerous variants.

    THIS IS AN ALL WEATHER HELICOPTER. The Coast Guard flys these fucking things into storms to save lives.

    There is NOTHING stopping one of these aircraft from safely operating in a gentle French rainstorm.

    Nothing.

    Except a petulant president who didn't wanna go out today.
    Except the Secret Service.
    Don't be afraid to see what you see

    So now their excuse is, Trump really really really wanted to go, but The Secret Service told Trump NO he couldn't visit a Veterans Memorial on Veterans Day.

    So is it safe to say Barack Obama never paid the Secret Service any attention ... because Rain never Stopped him?

    sad.

    I presume you are familiar with the term 'Commander In Chief,' and what, precisely, that means?

    Just imagine how all these Trump apologists would have reacted if Obama had tried to make up these thin excuses for weaseling out of this important function of the executive office.

    They'd be having a cow.

    The rain never bothered him; because he always had the Marines holding his umbrella.

    Obama's Marine One flight to Camp David cut short by weather https://www.cbsnews.com/news/obamas-...rt-by-weather/

    The ability to fly in bad weather isn't the only issue. Marine One usually flies in a tight formation for security reasons, along with additional aircraft operating in the area.

    You wanna reference what Obama did?

    Hey!

    There's an idea.

    President Trump could have done THIS: (from YOUR link)

    The president ... stepped off Marine One, and boarded a motorcade for the remaining 28 miles ...

    Not to the proceedings 50 miles away fool. You say you watch the news? Then get up to date asshole.

    https://www.politico.com/story/2018/...ry-rain-982947

    PARIS — President Donald Trump’s decision to cancel his visit to an American military cemetery outside of Paris threatened to overshadow his trip here, as government officials, historians and fellow Republicans hammered him for more than 24 hours for that move.

    “President@realDonaldTrump a no-show because of raindrops? Those veterans the president didn’t bother to honor fought in the rain, in the mud, in the snow — & many died in trenches for the cause of freedom. Rain didn’t stop them & it shouldn’t have stopped an American president,” wrote former Secretary of State John Kerry, a veteran of the Vietnam War.
    "2Timothy 3 "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away"

    They have roads in Europe. Just get up a little earlier. Oh wait. He's up in the wee hours. OK, he's already up. Just stop tweeting long enough to get ready and go.

    And other leaders had no trouble showing up there

    kind of like last year were the other world leaders walked and the feeble old man took a golf cart



    Trump is so lazy that instead of strolling with world leaders, he followed behind in a golf cart.
