"First, he called me 'Ms. Lopez,' and I was not 'Mrs. Lopez,'" Briseno said. "And he just talk[ed] about his son and said how much he knows or he understand how we feel because he lost his kid and he didn't feel -- he didn't know how we feel because he was there with his son when he passed. We didn't have the privilege. We received our kids in a casket."
Briseno added that she felt the president made the encounter "all about him."
"We had decided as a family that we would not meet with the president, so we were actually in a room on the side," Barnett emphasized.
The family ultimately decided to go onto the tarmac, where Biden checked his watch multiple times.
"It was just total disrespect," Barnett said. "It's beyond disgusting."
Raddatz recalled a prominent moment during Biden's exit, where someone in the crowd screamed, "Burn in hell."
"That was my daughter," Barnett said. "And she meant it."

you really didn't write that. Wow.
Do the Gold Star families have the authority to authorize Trump to break the law forbidding partisan campaigning at Arlington? No, they do not. He was free to go and participate as he did, even to give his little speech. But what the law CLEARLY forbids was him photographing it and filming it and then turning that material into campaign advertising, which, of course, is EXACTLY what he did. He was also forbidden to film at all in Area 60; something else he blatantly violated. Trump seems absolutely convinced by this and a hundred other instances, that laws are for the little people, not him.

Bringing a photographer worked though. It geberated a TON of buzz around this falken soldiers who died because of the Biden/Harris administration and the parents are LIVID!!! You all are too stupid to see that complaining about Trump going there brings a significant amount of negative attetion to dems.

Just because the Post does NOT support Diaper Don does NOT mean it is not a reliable source. Especially when you see RWNJ on this forum trying off BrainFart, OWNED, Fucked Snooze and Foolerist as reliable. Get fucking real.

why wouldn't they have a right to invite someone to their family's grave? There's no laws against it. Feel free to post one. You have no clue as always. Other former presidents go there.

Taking pictures in a section where it is forbidden?
Using those pictures in a campaign ad?

how is it tv stations can show the rows of headstones and crosses, and NCIS can film in there? Just curious if TDS is really that severe.

Gold Star families slam Kamala Harris for ‘playing politics’ over Trump’s visit to Arlington National Cemetery - WFIN Local News

“Why did we want Trump there? It wasn’t to help his political campaign,” Mark Schmitz said in the video. “We wanted a leader."
The Gold Star family members maintained that they had asked Trump for photographs, as opposed to Trump taking pictures to advance his campaign. In one video, the father of Marine Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz called Harris’ post “heinous, vile and disgusting.”
“In keeping with the reverence and respect that is given to all members of our military that are buried there, we invited President Trump,” he said. “We are the ones that asked for the video and the pictures to be taken at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier.”
Hoover also added that Trump has “been there for us from the very beginning,” and criticized Harris for “playing politics” over the incident.
“You should be ashamed and embarrassed [about] your lack of empathy and decency as a human being,” the father added. “You are only in this for the power and prestige. You don’t care for our military or the citizens of this country.
“You should hang your head in shame at your actions or lack thereof.”
