“Victory Day”: Trump rewrites Veterans Day at Arlington

[Joyous Ja]

omg i'm so worried about our vets rn they deserve so much more than just a fancy speech and some patriotic music it feels like the gov is all talk and no action we need real change, not just a bunch of empty words from the president let's focus on getting those funding gaps fixed and supporting our service members properly

I'm all about patriotism but when it comes to Veterans Day, I think we need to focus on the real heroes - the veterans themselves not just the politics and speeches . It's time for us to step up our game and provide them with the support they deserve , like funding for their hospitals and processing claims faster . Trump's Victory Day speech was cool and all but let's be real, actions speak louder than words . We need more substance behind that spectacle .

I'm not sure why people are getting so worked up about this "Victory Day" thing... But seriously, it's all about perspective. I think what Trump is trying to do is shake things up and get Americans pumped up about their country again. Problem is, he's doing it in a way that feels more like a grand gesture than an actual plan for change.

As veterans groups keep saying, it's not just about the ceremony or the President's words – it's about what we can actually do to support our service members and help them succeed when they come back home. Let's be real, we can talk all we want about "Victory Day" but until we're making real progress on those funding gaps and staffing shortages, I'm not convinced that anything has changed.

The thing is, life doesn't work like a grand ceremony – sometimes you need to take a step back and focus on the day-to-day stuff. Let's hope Trump and others are willing to listen and work towards some actual substance behind all this pomp and circumstance
