Trump Campaign verbally and physically assaults Arlington Memorial staff, illegally uses site for campaigning

[Anonymous]

I saw the photos. I don’t think I would have seen the photos if I there wasn’t some pushing match.

Btw, this is DC: I have seen about 6 real or near-real pushing matches by large white men in suits over the past 2o years. Suit-men staring each other down in the metro. Suit men drunk and stupid. Suit men pushing their body weight around in bars.

It is VERY normal here.

He shouldn’t have brought his camping staff and cameras. No one is saying he shouldn’t have gone.

This is an important distinction that everyone on the right is failing to grasp.

Many grasp it but reflexively excuse all his bad behavior. Others are lost in a conspiracy world. It was all done for political purposes, including these coordinated statements.

Jared Schmitz was deployed to Afghanistan from Jordan. This was his first deployment.
He was a marine who still had baby fat in his face. He had a lovely smile. I just read about him.

Bless him and all of you who keep us safe.

Of course Trump and his campaign staff broke rules, and social norms to politicize Arlington national cemetery. They are the worst of us.

But it’s deeply depressing to see families of our fallen soldiers encourage and defend the behavior for political purposes.
It’s really sad.

It’s how they are feeling. Your opinion of finding it “sad” seems irrelevant to me.

Holy smokes. I just read her X statement.
Did someone who hates Kamala write that for her. What on earth? Why would ramble and write all that?

editor anyone?!

Do you think their children being killed is sad?

How sad do you think these families are?

How sad do you think these Marines felt as they were blown apart and lay dying Afghanistan?

Democrats are more concerned about Trump visiting the resting places of the Fallen than what happened to cause these Marines to fall. Democrats are the political animals.

They will disrespect these Gold Star families while attacking Trump for attacking Gold Star Families.

That statement by VP 2/9 are about her leadership and how she will work on behalf of veterans.

It was bellicose and not sensitive. Not even close to sensitive. I really think someone on the inside hates her. (hahah) Or she has Elizabeth Warren’s PR team.

I would think my child being killed would be extremely sad.
I’d be too sad to try and score political points for my team.
But these guys go hard for the cult. The cult really does demand everything of them. It requires them to desecrate their own child’s grave and they do it gladly.
It’s really sad.

You have no clue what these families have experienced. How is a ceremony honoring the Fallen and Trump being invited by the families to participate in the ceremony desecration of the Fallen’s graves? Are these parents just supposed to pretend their children are sleeping and not talk about them anymore? Trump shows up because Biden won’t even say our dead Service Member’s names. Their dead children; their Commander in Chief won’t even say their names.

I saw the PBS clip.

Goodness those wreaths are gorgeous. It’s an amazing ceremony.

I doubt any other country does that.

God Bless Americans and God Bless our families who fight for it!

+1 They lack reading comprehension skills; therefore, they think she rambles.

You and the rest of the leftist peanut gallery should definitely keep attacking Gold Star families.

I’m one of who accused them of politicizing it and we’re a military family. Here’s the thing, serving in the military or having a family member who serves doesn’t make you an infallible god. So I can - brace yourself- support and appreciate their sacrifice AND recognize that many of them are sadly not immune from the polarization and tribalism of American politics today. Military members are supposed to show leadership, integrity, and professionalism by NOT being political. Families aren’t held to this standard but a former president SHOULD have the integrity to stop it from happening - the self awareness to not let himself be used. But Trump wanted exactly that. Families who are inserting themselves in this for attention are stepping on it. The only family that has a place to speak out is the family that didn’t give permission for their son’s grave to be a part of this grotesque display.

You are disgusting! You need to sit down and listen to the 8 families speak to Kamala Harris. This is about THEM, not you or your politics.

I'm not that person, but let me tell you what's actually disgusting: I don't expect ANYONE to love or like Harris or Biden, because I don't. You can hate them all you want, I couldn't give less of a sh*t.

However, actual "disgust" should be reserved for any military family who actively supports Trump. You are self-loathing and you have no self-respect. For someone like me, there is no reason you could support him and look good, esp. if you are military. It is grotesque for you to support someone who thinks you are a sucker and loser. He said that. You can stupidly deny it and pretend he didn't and desperately excuse it away, but I f***ing know exactly how someone like him thinks. Most military families are lower/middle class. To Trump, that makes you a loser and poor. That's why he calls those who serve suckers and losers. You make almost no money for dying for "nothing" in his mind. He did not want wounded vets at his parade because he's all about IMAGE. What he sees is someone who makes HIM look bad.

He doesn't give a sh*t if your kid had his legs blown off serving and got every award, medal and honor. Meaningless to him. He's more impressed with an Oscar or Emmy than your dead kid's purple heart. You're a fool if you think stating the obvious about Trump is "desperation" on our part. Every pathetic response you come up with to defend his indefensible behavior is weaker than the last.

The man has NO respect for the military. None. He put it in his will he didn't want his kid serving or they'd be disowned. He's an elitist who looks down on service and sacrifice. The scum has more respect for a money-making sex trafficker than any one of you who served. Stop lying to yourselves about what he thinks, because that is desperation.[i] Stop convincing yourselves anyone is "triggered" or "desperate" or whatever low IQ response you have to deflect from the fact that you support putrid trash.

Thank you for taking the time to write this out. Perfectly said.

Trump never called military suckers or losers. That is a lie.
