Originally published at: Army: Thousands of Events Are Held at Arlington, Only Trump Caused an Incident - TPM – Talking Points Memo
The Army issued an extremely rare rebuke of the Trump campaign on Thursday, saying that it was warned not to turn a visit to Arlington National Cemetery into a political event. But he did. As with so much that Donald Trump touches, the event immediately became extremely political, in wanton violation of both unspoken norms…
Frist ? This is an absolute disgrace and I hate to add a picture of sweet Nosey The Curious Cat. But she’s napping and so are any voters who think this is acceptable from any public servant, much less an ex POTUS !
Nothing but respect and admiration for the unnamed ANC staff member who took a stand.
I am glad our Army has chosen to stand up for her. She’s worth more than 100 Donald Trumps.
I mean when your party is all in on treason and armed insurrection, what’s a little desecration of a national cemetery between friends??
If my dad could, he would have risen out of his grave and grabbed that fat POS by the throat.
One of these things is not like the other…
A lot of those people gave their lives to defeat fascist dictators. I’m surprised Trump didn’t piss on any graves. Maybe Putin left that off his grocery list?
My father passed last year, a Korean War combat veteran. His ashes are interred at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio TX. Due to excessive watching of Fox News he was a tRump supporter but I think this would have been enough to snap him out of it. He always demanded respect for all military veterans
At least the disgusting, repulsive lowlifes in tsf’s entourage left their confederate stars and bars and their swastika flags in their cars.
The best we can hope for is that unpatriotic act of perversion will cost them a few votes from our militray members and their families. Good on the Army for their rebuke.
Only Trump Caused an Incident
Of course!
The point is press coverage. Donald will explain how incredibly moral he is in two weeks.
Nobody’s ever seen such morality before. Not even Jesus.
The Lincoln Project is going to rain fire and brimstone on that cowardly draft-dodging miserable scumbag.

And, sure enough, here is LP’s latest video, released today. As of 2330 ET, it stood at almost .5 million views on YT within 17 hours of appearing [cross-posted to WaR]
I sure hope so.
It’s gotta be rough for OldFelon and his gang of accomplices and enablers.
I mean, when your entire brand is transgressive acting out and norm-breaking, but the damned MSM keep normalizing your actions, it must be getting harder and harder to find new rules and norms to break in a way that will still shock.
So far, though, they’ve risen [??] to the challenge.
“This incident was unfortunate, and it is also unfortunate that the ANC employee and her professionalism has been unfairly attacked.”
That mealy-mouthed, flaccid excuse for “pushback” beggars belief.
Let’s not pussyfoot around: It wasn’t “her professionalism” that was attacked, it was her! Thugs physically assaulted a federal worker. This is political violence, full stop. It’s Brownshirt-level street thuggery, with ABSOLUTELY NO PLACE in America.
That the US Army – the most powerful, heavily-armed and equipped fighting force in the history of the planet – wants to (in the words of Mr. Kurtz) “close the matter…to avoid being the target of MAGA attacks” is, IMNSHO, cowardly.
Little Ruby Freeman showed more courage.
What is the spoiled child psychology?
The spoiled child’s philosophy is that life is only good if they can do whatever they want. “A spoiled child has the ‘I want, I want, I want’ syndrome’”, says psychology professor Charles Thompson, pointing out that spoiled children’s philosophy is that life is only good if they can do whatever they want.

Wow, that Trump team sure knows how to step on every rake, as Josh pointed out this morning. This story would have been a mere blip on the media radar if the campaign hadn’t escalated everything.
This all smells like Corey Lewandowski
This is why Trump will lose in November- 3 straight national elections of this clown. The majority of this country has had enough of him and his goons. We are not going back…
And it will blow over nobody is going to be charged and he will lose zero voters.
If it seems like Human laws, rules, acceptable manners and customs do not apply to Trump is because he is not human. It is for debate if he is divine(*) or infernal.
(*) And even if he is divine keep in mind the otherworldly SOB that were the Greek and Nordic gods.
If it was female then for sure, nobody better than Lewandowsky to play Alfred to the Misogynous duo.
PD. I am still surprised that Hope Hicks found a husband after being soiled by Corey Lewandowsky. I am sure there is a biblical prohibition about that somewhere.
