This went viral an hour ago. It is reprehensible. They tried to stop them from taking photos and film. There’s even federal law which prohibits this. This would destroy a presidental candidate, but we’re talking Trump.
Yup, this is the rabble that voted for the man who said he could shoot someone in Times Square and get away with it.
50 bucks says that the instant that Arlington staffer’s info gets made public, s/he’ll be inundated with death threats from Cult 45ers.
Tough to take that bet now that death threats seem to be part of the playbook
Cult 45 and Olde E(gotism)
Trump did that stupid “thumbs up” thing again at Arlington while posing for pictures with the families. He always does that at the most inappropriate time and place.
Exactly where do you think you ARE, Donald? You’re not opening a mall. It’s like someone playing a kazoo at a funeral.
He always thinks he is the most important person in that place and time, like all narcissists do.
It’s just his default “people are taking pictures of me” move. I guess it was a habit developed at a time when he was just a celebrity. But, it’s telling that he either can’t learn to do something different now and doesn’t have staff who step in front of the cameras and say “dude, you can’t do that thumbs up move here”.
Like a fat, orange, clueless, uncool Fonzie
The families of the men in the graves were also giving a thumbs up, which I think is much, much worse.
He did the stupid thumbs up thing again WHILE STANDING ABOVE TOMBSTONES
He doesn’t have the skills for a kazoo though.
Maybe he’s just super happy to be visiting Robert E. Lee’s former historical home?
Reading that article and the snarky comments from his campaign staff really pissed me off. They can all go fuck themselves for disrespecting Arlington like that.

Weird
If I were a reputable news outlet I would be reporting on this heavily
How trashy.
Trump and his people are so weird
If Arlington is full of real heroes, then why are they all dead? I prefer my heroes ALIVE!!! SAD!!
Fights with a vet to desecrates the graves of fallen soldiers… weird.
Immediately puts blame on the official; that they were having a mental breakdown - ya fucking right. These people deal with this on a daily basis. They have to tell people to not record, snap shots, and be respectful. The only difference is, some people just don’t know better - the people who maintain those grounds see it all the time and 99% of the time, people chill and follow the rules.
Ho ho ho, not here. Nope. It’s totally the official’s fault. They was being a crazy person and having a meltdown. This totally wasn’t someone being a disrespectful asshat. He wouldn’t dare do that.
Because of course they did
