US Army speaks out against Trump
The US Army issued a stark rebuke of former President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign over the incident on Monday at Arlington National Cemetery, saying in a statement on Thursday that participants in the ceremony “were made aware of federal laws” regarding political activity at the cemetery, a...
Trump can have one more felony, as a treat
Everyone posting quotes from the trump side, so here’s what the Army said:
“This incident was unfortunate, and it is also unfortunate that the ANC employee and her professionalism has been unfairly attacked. ANC is a national shrine to the honored dead of the Armed Forces, and its dedicated staff will continue to ensure public ceremonies are conducted with the dignity and respect the nation’s fallen deserve,” the statement said.
So the Army sided with the people at the cemetery, and tge following paragraphs indicate the Pentagon does as well.
“For a despicable individual to physically prevent President Trump’s team from accompanying him to this solemn event is a disgrace and does not deserve to represent the hollowed [sic] grounds of Arlington National Cemetery. Whoever this individual is spreading these lies are dishonoring the men and women of our armed forces, and they are disrespecting everyone who paid the price for defending our country,” LaCivita continued.
Wow. Just a fucking gross response. Every chance they get they try to insult the person who was doing their job.
“We had given our approval for President Trump’s official videographer and photographer to attend the event, ensuring these sacred moments of remembrance were respectfully captured and so we can cherish these memories forever,” the families said.
His idiot followers would think their invitation bests federal laws.
A different article said that the reason the beleaguered employee wasn't pressing charges was fear of harassment by his sycophants. His toadies make life hell for descent people, thus shielding him from repercussions. It's time to put this man out of the spotlight so the wheels of justice can run him over.
“For a despicable individual to physically prevent President Trump’s team from accompanying him to this solemn event is a disgrace and does not deserve to represent the hollowed [sic] grounds of Arlington National Cemetery. Whoever this individual is spreading these lies are dishonoring the men and women of our armed forces, and they are disrespecting everyone who paid the price for defending our country,” LaCivita continued.
This is vile.
The US Army published a measured response to the implicated poor behavior of an on duty servicewoman at ANC.
The Army would very much object to this being categorized as "against" Trump. Rather in defense of their service members and their correct actions.
The Army is careful not to overextend itself on political rhetoric and invite too much politics directly.
Still waiting for team trump to release the video that defends them lmfao
I'm struck by the similarities to Trump's bible photo incident: Donald Trump photo op at St. John's Church - Wikipedia
Edit: Link fixed, thanks to apfelwoiSchoppen
'No video has been released yet' to the surprise of no one.
I thought it was an Onion article!
What happened to all troops that die in service being losers?
He really is a disgusting twat.
The US Army is UNPATRIOTIC!
