Letter: Old Bone Spurs was a no-show

(Eugene Hoshiko | AP Photo) U.S. President Donald Trump gestures to U.S. servicemen at U.S. Navy multipurpose amphibious assault ship USS Wasp at the U.S. Navy's Yokosuka base in Yokosuka, south of Tokyo Tuesday, May 28, 2019.

By being a no-show at any Memorial Day event honoring veterans and members of our armed forces, Old Bone Spurs (President Trump) avoided paying merited respect to people of whom he cannot claim to be the greatest.
