STOP SAYING, 'DIED LIKE A DOG".

Trump in describing the death of Big Daddy said, "he cried, he whimpered, he died like a dog." Not surprising that our illiterate president reaches for the nearest cliche. (Today he said Baghdadi was,"as dead as a door nail.") I would remind Don that it was brave dogs that chased Baghdadi into the cave, and brave dogs that aid our servicemen, police, firemen, blind and handicapped persons, and rescuers throughout the world. Many of our veterans apply to be reunited with the dogs that served with them overseas during the war and provide so much comfort once they return home. Dogs are brave, loyal, often fearless and always trustworthy. "Died like a dog" is an unfair and ignorant cliche.Not surprised that Trump tossed it out without ever considering how inaccurate it is.
