Tarawa was a three-day meatgrinder, with many fine young men killed just wading ashore from landing craft hung up on the coral rimming the island.

And yet our “worthless half-breed pResident” has the temerity to go to Hiroshima and apologize for bombing that city! President Trump will need to retrace all of Obola’s “apology sites,” and set the record straight.
