One of the most ignorant anti-Trump Stories Yet

A lot of commentators are slamming President Trump for not attending a commemoration ceremony in France for the end of World War 1 at the American cemetery at Aisne-Marnes. There’s a lot snark, typified by this from James Fallows of The Atlantic:

What I do know is that one hypothesis that has shown up in many stories about his no-show—that Marine One, the presidential helicopter, “can’t fly” in the rain—doesn’t make sense.

As you’re looking for explanations, you can dismiss this one. Helicopters can fly just fine in the rain, and in conditions way worse than prevailed in Paris on November 10.


Jim Fallows, whom I like and respect, and many others reporting on this story, are totally wrong.

Hard to believe the MSM would manufacture controversy.

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.
