"Cause he picked up the sword and marched in the direction of battle.....so are we gonna support him or just watch

March to the sound of the cannons. Or end up like the French at the battle of Wavre and Waterloo.

Cruz and Carson are both friends of his. They are in this together. He has made his relationship with Cruz very public. Carson said the other day with his big grin “he’s just a guy in the ......areas”
When pressed he says Trump was one of the kindest, most considerate generous people he knew and his private person wee nothing like the public persona.
The same description was echoed on F&F last Thursday by Alice Cooper. He was celebrating his 40 anniversary , sober 30 year, born again Christian and often in the Trump foursome. He added that Trump neither drank or smoked and no one did around him

He’s a builder of buildings as well as a contractor. Just check out the westside highway. He’s also an employer of a lot of people. I’ll tell you one thing: the busboys at Trump Grille certainly love him. Try having a conversation with one of them and see the reaction you get. I would say to all of those who don’t like Trump - you don’t have to vote for him. It’s that simple. Vote for someone else. It’s that simple.

How did you come across this?

Were you following Yeager's Twitter feed, or did someone give you a link to the google cache page?

I ask because it may have been a spoof. Or ---maybe not.

I don't know how Twitter operates well enough to determine whether it is or not, like --- having had direct experience with Twitter feed deleted comments, and whether or not clicking on the "this page may have changed" link on the google cache page would lead to an active Twitter page, minus deleted comments -- or not.

So “making” buildings isn’t something people buy/rent or use. Got it.

Agreed.I too like the “March to the sound of the guns” attitude. Long since time we had a Patton in the front lines and I like the similarities. “Lead, follow. or get out of the way.”

Regardless of how one comes down on Trump, Facebook isn’t worthy to kiss Chuck’s Beech-Nut wrapper...

-— Read his biography back in the day...one of the BEST!

I had the same thing happen to me last week.
“Help us confirm your name”
I don’t use my real name on FB, either. With all of the threats us conservative gun owners face, it’d be a bad idea.

Simply came through my Facebook feed. I get Chuck Yeager’s feed on my Facebook wall. I shared his post with my edit:
“General Chuck Yeager. If there is a class of heroes, Chuck Yeager would be its commandant. Yeager goes point by point on Donald Trump. (New bucket list item: Share a pot of coffee with Chuck Yeager, 2 hours, no interruptions).”

Several friends of mine shared my post and their posts were also deleted. Was not a spoof as others on his Facebook site said his posts had been deleted.
Too bad.

Good fathers matter for sure

The lack of them is culture destroying

Chuck Yeager and Buzz Aldrin are on Facebook.

Buzz is also very active on twitter.

Why would you believe Snopes, when Trump himself asserted it to be true? That isn’t very bright of you.

I just have a hard time believing Chuck Yeager (age 92) would sit down and type all that out on a Facebook post.

If he did, I'm very impressed.

From his FB page:
“Chuck Yeager

1 hr ·
.
From Mrs. Yeager: Please be advised that Facebook did not remove a post earlier. I did. I inadvertently posted it to General Yeager’s page thinking I was on my page.”

So his wife posted it. Almost as good!
