U.S. Army Issues Statement Criticizing Trump Campaign Over Cemetery Dispute

"Trump violated the law and was disrespectful to veterans in doing so." - Catsnmeters

Federal law prohibits political activity, including any photography, at any military cemeteries. A Trump spokesman claimed that the cemetery officials were, in his mind, "clearly suffering from a mental health episode." Political historian Allan Lichtman joined Scripps News on Wednesday to discuss the incident.

"There's clear federal law on this, and there's good reason for it," Lichtman said. "We should not be exploiting soldiers for political purposes."

"Whether or not Donald Trump has some family member allegedly giving him permission is absolutely irrelevant. Staffers at Arlington are absolutely right. You cannot use the cemetery, the graves, for a photo op for a political campaign. That violates federal law," Lichtman said.
But its okay for Biden to do it.

The difference is lost on you but that's okay. We'd expect nothing less from a scummy partisan nitwit like you:auiqs.jpg:
 
you'd never call them liars though right?
Actually, I don't care about them because I do not know them, but unlike Trump and what he's done to Gold Star family members...?

I do care about the families I actually know.
 
So the difference is lost on you huh?

okay

Guy looks like he's been raised from the dead.
