So the bit with Trump and Arlington ….it turns out it was quite a bit different than what the mainstream media was passing along.. (look closely and you’ll see my shocked face.)
In a move that was scummy even for her, Kamala Harris had the audacity to attack Donald Trump for appearing at the memorial for service members who died at Abbey Gate in Afghanistan. And, by extension, she attacked the Gold Star families who invited him to be there.
Let’s not forget that the reason that those soldiers are dead is because of the totally botched Afghanistan withdrawal run by, you guessed it, Biden and Harris. That’s a point that wasn’t lost on the gold star families that invited Mr Trump.
Steven Miller says it best:
Harris has never spoken to any family member of the Abbey-Gate bombing. Trump was at Arlington at their request, as was his photographer. This is pretty gross.
These families have been ignored by the media, ignored by Harris, stood by while Biden checked his watch during the dignified transfer, only talked to them about his son, one father has been arrested for protesting Biden’s SOTU and now here’s Harris attempting to politicize and speak for them. Like I said, pretty gross.
Also, John Hinderaker
“If the Democrats were smart, they would avoid like the plague any
reference to Joe Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan. It was universally, and correctly, seen as a debacle, and the Afghanistan
fiasco precipitated a drop in Biden’s approval ratings from which he
never recovered. Normal observers see that the current controversy was stirred up by the Democrats in hopes of political gain. The controversy, kept alive by Democrats, mostly serves to remind voters of one of the Biden/Harris administration’s worst failures, and to tie that failure more securely to Kamala Harris. So in my opinion the Democrats’ attacks on Trump for his Arlington visit constitute political malpractice. We can only hope that they keep it up.”
John, if I were you I wouldn’t worry about it. You know as well as I that they simply can’t help themselves.
