– Negotiates withdraw with the Taliban, leaving the Afghan government out of talks
– Draws US Troop strength down to 2,500
– Releases 5,000 enemy fighters
– Brags about how Biden is powerless to stop things
But sure, totally Biden’s fault when 13 Troops are killed by a suicide bomber.

The guy is walking around and desecrating entire places just with his existence. Man I will be so relieved when I do not have to read trump news anymore

You know he will talk about this every time he talks about veterans from now on. Like it’s a huge deal that he went.

His Secret Service Goons abused their power.
Like Vance’s Goons are doing seizing a local park near his house.

Seriously. I was there two weeks ago and was quiet, respectful, and tried to follow the rules and ended up getting yelled at three times. Once for walking across an empty parking lot instead of using the sidewalk. A second time for momentarily walking in the street to get to another sidewalk. And a third time for walking towards an area where a funeral was ongoing, but I could not tell as it was on the other side of a hill.

Well, the Evangelicals don’t seem to mind him using the Bible as a prop… or a fundraiser.

He is praying penances for the US Intelligence Agent deaths caused by him selling US agents information to the enemy. Im sure he is seeking forgiveness for killing US citizens with Covid disinformation and dangerous nonsense. Vote Blue. Let’s keep our democracy free from a child rapist, felon and religious extremist supporter.

How does the military, who trump has called soldiers killed or injured losers, allow him near that sacred place.
zerg1980 on
Norms aren’t laws. Trump was allowed to do this because the only thing stopping prior presidents from doing the same was their own sense of honor and dignity, and Trump has neither.
thomport on
Trump publicly demeaned, our soldiers and their families.
He shouldn’t even be allowed in that cemetery where those great men and women are memorialized.
fence_sitter on
Maybe he was picking out his plot since he’s eligible for a military funeral with honors and 21 gun salute.
Sigh.

Don’t you know? It’s common practice for Republicans to use the bodies of fallen soldiers as their platforms.

If you head over to the “other community”.. they’re having a meltdown because “where’s Harris and Walz?!” at the National Ceremony. “Only Trump has the decency!”

Before you answer the question asked by the headline here, some more information to help you consider it.
> At his welcome ceremony at Joint Base Myer–Henderson Hall, across the Potomac River from the capital, Milley gained an early, and disturbing, insight into Trump’s attitude toward soldiers. Milley had chosen a severely wounded Army captain, Luis Avila, to sing “God Bless America.”
>Avila, who had completed five combat tours, had lost a leg in an IED attack in Afghanistan and had suffered two heart attacks, two strokes, and brain damage as a result of his injuries. ***To Milley, and to four-star generals across the Army, Avila and his wife, Claudia, represented the heroism, sacrifice, and dignity of wounded soldiers.***
>
>
> It had rained that day, and the ground was soft; at one point Avila’s wheelchair threatened to topple over. Milley’s wife, Hollyanne, ran to help Avila, as did Vice President Mike Pence. After Avila’s performance, Trump walked over to congratulate him, but then said to Milley, within earshot of several witnesses, “Why do you bring people like that here? No one wants to see that, the wounded.” Never let Avila appear in public again, Trump told Milley.
If he knew what the fuck he was talking about or had a modicum of respect for the military, he’d say that “11 Marines, 1 Navy Corpsman, and 1 Soldier died” since that’s the PROPER way to reference their service and component.
Instead he’s a lazy, grifting fuck who stands on graves with a thumbs up and a smile because he avoided service by raping children and sullying sex workers.
The ceremonies are not officially dedicated to any specific veterans, event, or military campaign.
The Trump campaign just picked the day of the particular Afghanistan attack and are framing as if it was a specific anniversary ceremony for these specific troops (and of course that Biden and Kamala didn’t show up or never participate in these things because they don’t care about the troops like Trump does.)
Go to the conservative sub and there are several posts claiming just this. They accept whatever their media tells them without question.
It’s just another misinformation fraud, using our most sacred memorial as a prop.
YallaHammer on
He also used the White House for campaign speeches. And the family invited him, they welcomed his exploitation despite Trump having released 5000 seasoned Taliban fighters TO INCLUDE THE TALIBAN’S CO-FOUNDER so he could avoid military casualties during the remainder of his tenure and leave the shit storm for Biden.
And, the be clear, Biden should’ve asked for the resignations of his NSA and SecDef when this happened. The world knew those fighters were released and there was a troop reduction. National Security Advisor, SecDef should’ve walked in day on with a remediation plan.

Trump still thinks he is president. He has enablers that treat him like he is president with briefings, press conferences, meetings with foreign leaders, and ceremonies. He got his Bedminster club to look like the White House as a backdrop for his press conference and got many of the press to call him ‘Mr. President’ when asking him a question (probably required them to).
