In a statement, the Army said they warned Trump staffers about federal laws that prohibit any partisan activity on Army installations. NPR reported that one cemetery staffer was pushed aside when she attempted to stop the Trump campaign from filming during their visit on August 26.

This is a man who is unable to comprehend anything other than service to himself,” she wrote.

“Our kids were murdered because of your administration, and you are partly to blame,” Jaclyn Schmitz, mother of late Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz, said in one clip.

Staff Sgt. Taylor Hoover’s father Darin Hoover shared that his family “asked the Trump team to take the videos” and that the event was “solemn” and respectful.

the event was “solemn” and respectful.

So “solemn” and respectful that it wound up as a Tiktok campaign ad.

and that the event was “solemn” and respectful.

How fucking 'solemn and respectful' is an event where mango Mussolini is giving his brain dead smile and a thumbs up?

I hope people are more respectful to Trump's grave and only shit on it every other day, and solemnly piss on the headstone.
