1. proves (as if needed) what an asshole he is

Canadians getting riled up over an EX-pres.

God, I am so glad that is over. Hey dumbya, the whole world thinks you are a fuck up - get a clue.

6. The irony of the middle pic was not lost on me.

It seems rather crass to offer free fries as some kind of sop to fallen soldiers at a location widely recognized as being one of the bloodiest and goriest running battles of civil war.

Can you make the price of a soldier cheaper, or his soul more easily forgotten?

On edit: IIRC, they are still finding artifacts and the occasional remains out that way.
