Fight at Arlington cemetery shows 'Trump just can't get anything right' in US election

[@QueenetBowie]

I already read a few articles on it and I still can’t believe this is reality. If this happened to any other presidential candidate in history their campaign would be over immediately, who gets into a fight with staff at a cemetery? Especially after breaking the rules (and apparently federal law). Better yet, who goes for a campaign photo op at a military cemetery?

I'm a President Biden supporter, (now Harris), but President Biden made quite a big deal about D-Day and what happened on June 6, 1944. Which can be used in President Biden's campaign against trump in a discussion about the Ukraine -Russia conflict. The previous sacrifices that the United States has made.

@@idontcare2851 If you don’t think Trump committed any crimes, you’re the one who needs to be exposed to more sources of news. He has been INDICTED 88 times in several courts of law. He has already been TRIED and CONVICTED of 34 of the charges. And you’re asking “What Crime?” While you’re accusing someone else of being stuck in an echo chamber? That’s called projection.

I hope he's charged with violation of FEDERAL LAW

[@davidevans7643]

Lies 😂😂😂

[@elaineisabelle427]

Voting blue 💙 to ensure Trump is held accountable for his many, many crimes

[@tomarmstrong1281]

We have fun and games with some of our politicians in the UK. They pale in comparison to the Trump-inspired shenanigans in the US, where wrong-doers employ clever lawyers to manipulate the law to shield the wrong-doers from their wrongdoing.

[@tracysharp1361]

This man's total disrespect for our military and our democracy is pathetic he should not be at Arlington cemetery putting reefs on nobody's grave!

[@struck2soon]

How come it has taken four years to even be talking about prosecuting Trump over the Jan, 6th insurrection? That man should be part-way through his prison sentence by now.

[@charlesraker5308]

All of the trials involving Trump were slow-walked until a time when they'd do the most damage to the chances of the Republicans in the 2024 election. If the trials had been concluded say at least 18 months ago, he likely would not have been the Republican nominee. Now the GOP is stuck with him until Election Day.

[@heronimousbrapson863]

Trouble always seems to follow Trump wherever he goes.

[@tmdesert3729]

Lies❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@hgjvoesten]

So you call killed soldiers suckers and losers and then you go filming on Arlington??! Makes my blood boil

[@fluxfaze]

Trump should never be allowed anywhere near service member cemeteries, for grotesquely obvious reason.

[@catlady443]

They do realize that the devil will protect their own if they are useful still. That sounds like the case here

[@TheDavidlloydjones]

Somebody told the Trumpoids that there were dead soldiers in Arlington, and they went into shock.

[@yuchoob]

I like the term "MAGATS.

[@allenakinola1064]

The government should not have allowed him to do that after his actions against our military personnel. What a shame?

[@joecity9]

You know they're going to have to confiscate Mar-A-Lago and make it a military cemetery if they can get the Trump funk out of it.

[@GiGi-ef5ir]

That or a place for vets with PSTD or no home.

[@Nicks66Service]

Snarlington.

[@motherofcatsnz]

@@GiGi-ef5ir Yes please, the Veterans should have it to have a home off the streets and care.

[@CarolynMcPherson-r3z]

Great idea.

[@peregrinepoint1460]

He wasn't asked to attend by the families. He was asked by ONE family.

[@CarolynMcPherson-r3z]

And for a different date, I believe. Trump did not attend that ceremony.

[@ToniSammons-vc9wg]

This case would not have been thrown out. This is an honest judge, unlike the corrupt trump appointed judge in Florida. Also the immunity Is for Presidential actions, not for all actions while the person is in office.Two misunderstandings in this report. Understandable but important. It is a struggle.

[@gunnarlofvenberg5060]

Shame on the nut! He and his friends ought to respect Arlingtons sleeping heroes!!

[@MephitisUK]

Trump giving the thumbs up is bad but nobody has commented on the women throwing 'devils horns' next to him, especially his evangelical following.

[@user-rv8wb1nl1b]

BONESPURS

[@nml5536]

Nikki Haley said it best, controversy constantly follows him.... Hard Pass!

[@veraharris5507]

But now she's following him. What a joke.

[@giancarlozarlengo1096]

Incident aside, I don't understand the placing of a wreath? Trump's currently a private citizen not the president. It's not Memorial Day. He has no office or authority to pretend to this ceremony.

[@robhaythorne4464]

The bots and trolls are out in force today.

[@mrmartin4975]

Did you tell your followers that Trump was invited by the members of the family who died in Afghanistan. The President & VP didn't even bother to show up, and they concentrate on this?

[@dankeith1003]

Trump has a huge responsibility for the deaths in Afghanistan , the withdrawal from Afghanistan and release of 5000 Taliban was his order prior to leaving office and then he tried to smear President Biden blaming him for it . Who knows the motives of the family who invited him but in any case they had no authority to give him permission to take pictures for his political campaign. Which was to fool voters into thinking Trump cares about vets which he obviously does not. Crocodile tears from Trump.

[@JamesVandorpe-b5n]

It's a Four Seasons moment.

[@GPLP335]

He has no business being there period. He should have been arrested on the spot.

[@realityreal6861]

this kind of disrespect should not be normalized and downplayed, let's call out this kind of horrible behavior, felon trump should not be given power again.

[@deborahharman7161]

ALL LIES

[@motherofcatsnz]

One family invited him to lay a wreath. It was not all 13 families and it is no photos at all, ever, for whatever reason.

[@sjmtc3450]

WHY would you disrespect all the OTHER FALLEN HEROES & THEIR FAMILIES inviting a 5 time Draft Dodger to a military CEMETARY?...

[@CaminoAir]

Trump's campaign team would be expected to liaise with the Arlington staff and be familiar with all requirements. This is a professional obligation and Trump's team can't credibly claim they were not aware of what was allowed or not. Either they didn't do their job, or they are opportunistically exploiting the cemetery and what happened there.

[@williampatrickfagan7590]

As one person on TV said, That Cemetery is very hallowed ground. Held dear by all those whe serve or have served in the military. I opine, that what the Trump crew did, was akin to the deliberate desecration of the head stones of all those resting there.

[@LesBowington]

That just goes to show that Trump respects NOTHING

[@edmurth]

I guess they’re not “suckers and losers” when you want to use them for your political gain.

[@rynorama]

The end messed up for anyone else?

[@rynorama]

@ 9:39 ?

[@salpah09]

Vote to make sure Trump and his weirdos never get to the WH. Vote Blue
