94-Year-Old Veteran STEALS THE SHOW at Trump VFW Speech in Kansas City, Missouri (VIDEO)
GP ^ | July 24,2018 | Jim Hoft

President Donald Trump spoke to the VFW Convention today in Kansas City, Missouri.

During his speech invited 94-year-old veteran Allen Jones on stage to share a few words.

Allen stole the show.

The World War II veteran told the story of losing his brother in World War II fighting. Then Allen turned to President Trump and made a request. Allen asked the US president if he could bring his family to the Oval Office next April when he turns 95.

President Trump said yes and gave Allen a hug.

This was an amazing American moment.

Damn best. Maybe only Reagan would have acted better at that situation. If it were Buttcrack O, he would have told him to F off.

"If it were Buttcrack O, he would have told him to F off."

Obama only takes selfies. He'd be handing out autographed selfies of himself if he were there.

I also don’t think the 94 year old veteran would have WANTED to go visit 0bama in the Oval Office.

That was great, Hojczyk...thank you for posting it!

I had a big grin on my face as I watched it. To be 94 years old and be able to walk and talk straight and erectly as he did...well...that would be wonderful!

Moments like these must be treasured, for soon they will not be available for live viewing as these men and women of the WWII era are slipping away each day and taking their precious memories with them!
