Trump issues statement from Gold Star families defending Arlington Cemetery visit

Trump was wrong, and the families were wrong, no matter how well-intended. Harris is also wrong in escalating the politicization. There's no right here.

I completely agree the fiasco the Biden Admin calls a withdrawal is completely the fault of the Biden/Harris Admin. Screw them and the MSM trying to mealy-mouth wordsmith their way out of it. They wanted power and they got it, along with the responsibility for a failed Admin, and not knowing their asses from a hole in the ground when it comes to using the military. This is on them.

Trump didn't need to do a photo op over the graves of the fallen to make this point that he should be hammering home regularly.

More context on this. As WH crying they weren't invited? Your incompetence killed their kids. douchebags. This ain't hard to figure out. There's being willing to die for your country and then there's not being so willing to die because alleged "leadership" is incompetent. Troops are at the mercy of leadership and this is exactly what happens when leadership is f-d up. I'm getting pissed off all over again. Those Marines are dead for no damned good reason.
