Re: Trump Touts Meeting to Address VA Issues, Sec. of VA not invited. Meeting No Go.
All of that sounds great, if he in fact was not invited to the meeting. But we only think we wasn't invited based on him saying he wasn't going. So, this is a self-fulfilling narrative. It's circular reasoning.
There is no evidence we wasn't invited to the Saturday non-meeting, that happened to take place after the Friday official meeting that he was at!
We may never know but it would not surprise me that Skulkin heard about the VA meeting only moments before. Then Trump casually asks him if he is going? And then asks if he knew about the meeting. What could Skulkin say, "Yeah, the bastards told me about it an hour ago but, yeah, I know about your meeting. Why would you plan a meeting about the VA and not discuss it and an agenda and my schedule with me before hand, you moron? Or is it you forgot or that you never intended for me to go? And why would you continue with the meeting I can't attend and wasn't informed of under just a while ago? And where are the heads of the American Legion and the DAV, why aren't they going? But, yeah, since you are casually asking me in front of the press if I know about your goddam meeting, I'll say yes, but under the circumstances there's no way in hell I am going."
