President Trump will participate in a Thanksgiving teleconference with members of the military on Thursday amid criticism of his support for troops.
The White House announced Wednesday night that Trump would be participating in “a Thanksgiving teleconference with members of the military” on Thursday morning. The president will be at his Florida resort in Mar-a-Lago on Thanksgiving.
Trump has drawn backlash in recent weeks, including for his decision not to visit Arlington National Cemetery to commemorate Veteran's Day. Trump later made a rare public show of regret, saying during an interview with Fox News that he "should have" visited the cemetery.
The president also received blowback for his criticism of retired Navy Adm. William McRaven, whom Trump knocked in remarks stating that he believed the U.S. should have killed al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden sooner.
Trump has yet to visit troops deployed in a war zone, a trip that has become a tradition for sitting presidents.
Trump told the Associated Press in a recent interview that he doesn’t think visiting troops in a war zone is “overly necessary.” “I’ve been very busy with everything that’s taking place here,” he said

Nothing says you love the troops like teleconferencing them for a few minutes from your Florida beach resort where you’re spending the holidays at taxpayer expense before teeing off on the golf course you own...
