You can keep posting this lie and pretending like you don’t understand and trying to deflect with your whatsboutism and false equivalencies.

It doesn’t change the fact that Trump broke the rules and acted dishonorably.

Patriotic Americans and really any American who even dimly respects our service members recognizes trump’s denigration of Arlington National Cemetery viscerally.

Your faux obtuseness cannot change that. Trump was wrong and just because he’s a psychopath doesn’t mean his behavior should be normalized.

The Gold Star families posted in this thread absolutely disagree with you.

The families don’t decide ANC rules. Rules that apply to everyone. Including Trump.

Trump acted dishonorably. And you know it.

PP

DP. The Gold Star families followed the rules. They said Trump's photographer and videographer were at ANC covering the ceremony at THEIR request. That's within the rules. Trump didn't show up with a MAGA poster or Trump 2024 campaign banner, sign, or other overt campaign materials. Please explain how this was overtly and clearly campaign activity.

If anyone acted dishonorably, it would be Biden and Harris for not showing up. They are the sitting President and Vice President of the United States. Can you please explain why they didn't?

Honey that’s not how it works.
Just like Trump can’t declassify stuff with his mind.
That’s not how any of this works.
Those families don’t get to supersede federal law.

The tik tok didn’t mention the election or campaign. Trump wasn’t campaigning- he laid a wreath, comforted the families at their request. Biden and Harris won’t even acknowledge the names of the dead Service Members.

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.

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.

Trump showed up to film a commercial.

Link to commercial?

Hi “link to commercial” poster. Here you go.
https://www.tiktok.com/@realdonaldtrump/video/7407571442088430878

“We didn’t lose one person in 18 months. And then they took over that disaster.”

And that’s what happened?

Trump didn’t mention the election, his campaign, voting for him, etc.

The ceremony took place on the 3rd anniversary of the bombing. It wasn’t set up just so Trump could show up in Arlington.

Trump said zero about the upcoming election.

Did he show up last year? The year before? Is there a Presidential race going on this year?

So Trump should have told the Abbey Gate families to piss off, like Biden and Harris have?

If Trump had actually made a campaign ad out of the footage he would be wrong. But he didn’t. he accepted the invitation from the families, laid a wreath at THEIR request, and spent time with them. On the actual 3rd anniversary of the bombing and deaths of their loved ones.

I don’t know if the Abbey Gate families have held a ceremony at Arlington before. This might be the first year they could mentally have come to terms with the deaths of their children and arranged a ceremony. It takes time to mourn and grieve and accept the sudden, violent death of your child.

I am sure you have a great criticism of these families waiting.

Biden/Harris never told those families to piss off.

This was a contrived event made for Trump specifically so he could claim he was there and Biden/Harris blew it off. That never happened.

Trump broke the law here, blatantly as usual by immediately using the footage in campaign ads.

Because it was a Trump campaign event.

No campaign or election was mentioned and it took place on the 3rd anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing.

One of the fathers was arrested at Biden’s SOTU.

They desecrated the graves and memories of their children in service of a conman.

So your opinion of the Gold Star Families is they are desecrating the graves of their own Fallen children?

You are qualified to judge Gold Star Families how?

NP. My opinion of these particular Gold Star families is that they’re fervent Trump supporters who Trump is glad to exploit for his political ends because he knows it’s good copy.

This also reminds me how grateful I am that Biden got us out of Afghanistan.

The families I saw interviewed were trump supporters. They wanted trump there.

Neither Biden nor Harris will say their children’s names.

And Trump told a Gold Star widow that her husband "knew what he signed up for". See? BoThSiDeS!!!

And other families have spoken out about their loved ones' grave markers appearing in a Trump TikTok. Why don't they matter, too?

Are you saying Trump engineered the Abbey Gate bombing 3 years ago so he and the families could hold a wreath laying on the 3rd anniversary during the election? My they are a crafty bunch. Just like the firefighter got his head blown off in the Trump coordinated staged assassination attempt.
