It’s really sad.

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.

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.

Agree. I’d never use my kid for politics and sure as hell wouldn’t stand over their grave giving a thumbs up sign to appease the ego of a conman who has no respect for me and my child. Very sad.

Sure it is. It's always a conspiracy against Trump, right? He's a respectful, stand-up guy.

Take that up with a four star general who says he heard him say it.

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.

Then why bring cameras and campaign staff to where they’re not permitted? Why shove a lady to accomplish it? This is what we take issue with.

I’m not comfortable calling balls and strikes on this one. I think we need to leave that to the people directly involved. But from a strategic level, if Harris wants to call attention to Trump’s ethical lapses there seems to seems to be enough fertile ground there without calling attention to the Afghanistan withdrawal, which marked the end of the viability of a second Biden-Harris term. This seems like an incredible own goal.

Trump, and be extension MAGA, despises the military and considers them a prop only. They wouldn't believe the general.

These families reduced their children’s sacrifice to a campaign ad.
Honestly this is incredibly depressing.

They held a ceremony honoring their Fallen heroes.

Biden refuses to say the names of their dead children. The Families want their children to be remembered as the heroes they are.

Sorry the third anniversary of the deaths of their children coincided with the election. That doesn’t mean their children cannot be honored.

Trump was invited and the wreath laying ceremony was livestreamed and shown on many news/media channels. Are those news outlets participating in a “campaign ad?”

If you want to post it go ahead. Most folks are not interested in posting trump campaign materials.

If he could help comfort the families that is good. If they want photos with him, that is good. Using footage from Arlington National cemetery for political ads is bad.

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.

DP. And what about the others buried in section 60, with families that did NOT want their graves in a political ad? Do their wishes not matter? Are all the graves open to being used as campaign fodder?

Again, why do the rules of Arlington not apply to everyone? The family and Trump's campaign entourage were told the rules. Why are you ok with the fact that they chose to violate them?

Whether Trump visited out of the goodness of his heart is immaterial. The bolded above, THIS is the issue. Rules are rules. Why are Trump supporters ok with this?
