The US Army issued a stark rebuke of former President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign over the incident on Monday at Arlington National Cemetery, saying in a statement on Thursday that participants in the ceremony “were made aware of federal laws” regarding political activity at the cemetery, and “abruptly pushed aside” an employee of the cemetery.
It turns out that the police will absolutely rise up but the military is all about protecting and following the chain of command. I used to think as you do but I’ve since seen so many times when they have expelled the crazies. There’s no union protecting bad soldiers from consequences.
I’m pretty sure they’re saying his followers are a cult, not the Army. His followers will easily take the word of him and his campaign over the Army and Arlington National Cemetery.
The army stated that they consider the matter closed according tovthe article. I doubt any legal action will come from this.
That’s not the point. Lots of people now see how tone deaf the entire campaign is.
I wish I could believe that.
It’s a cult though.
How often do cults end in mass suicide?
One cult too few so far

I’ve reread the comment a few times and still think that they were talking about the army. I do see what you mean though.
This event will change exactly 0 people’s minds at the ballot box.
You say that yet everyone except the “base” is fleeing. Trump is limited to down ballot voters and whackadoos.
Look, come election day, I hope you’re right and I’m wrong. I’m just not seeing any conservatives “fleeing”.
It’s all over the news. Republicans coming out in support of Harris, etc.
I bet it will change more than 0.
Like 5.
