    Trump did it again this week.

    He was trying to win the hearts of service members over the 13 service members killed at the airport in 2021. Instead, he insulted service members by someone in his entourage getting into to a fight with an official at Arlington cemetery who said it was against the rules to use cameras that Trump used for his photo-op that he did anyway.

    It's been over two weeks and Trump doesn't appear to have produced the flight records. It's one of his old 'in two weeks' ploy.

    He likely won't ever produce them. It would show that he was wrong about Willie Brown being on the flight.

    Trump Videos at Arlington Stir More Fallout After Gravesite Visit

    excerpt:

    "The Hoover family granted permission to the Trump team to film and take photographs at the gravesite; the Marckesano family did not, and filming and photographing at the gravesite for political purposes is a violation of federal law, according to cemetery officials. Yet Sergeant Marckesano’s grave was shown in photos from the visit that were published online. A video was posted to Mr. Trump’s TikTok account featuring footage from the Section 60 visit and the gravestones from behind, with narration criticizing the handling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021."

    Even Trump's ardent supporters had trouble stomaching that one. People left early.

    Trump Videos at Arlington Stir More Fallout After Gravesite Visit

    excerpt:

    "Two Trump campaign officials, Mr. Cheung and Chris LaCivita, had insulted the cemetery worker in public statements on Tuesday. Mr. Cheung asserted that she was “suffering from a mental health episode” while Mr. LaCivita said that she was a “despicable individual” who “does not deserve to represent the hallowed grounds of Arlington National Cemetery.”

    Military officials said that the cemetery worker feared that pursuing the matter with the authorities at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall in Virginia, which has jurisdiction over the cemetery, could subject her to retaliation from Trump supporters. Mr. Cheung said in a statement on Wednesday that “that is ridiculous and sounds like someone who has Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

    The Trump team had said it was prepared to release footage of the altercation, but never did."

    Trump didn't release the footage of the incident. It would make him look bad.

    Maybe in two weeks, like the helicopter flight log he didn't release.

    They’ll release it after it’s finished being edited.

    I would take Trump to court over that. Those are dangerous accusations. Why do we have to continue to pay taxes for Secret Service agents to protect a felon?

    excerpt:

    “Joe Biden owes the men and women that served in Afghanistan a debt of gratitude and an apology. Donald Trump loves this country and will never forget the sacrifice and bravery of our service members," she added. "Join us in putting him back in the White House.”

    Though the loved ones said they were OK with the cameras present, the families do not have the power to suspend the rules.

    Trump only acts like he loves the country when it helps enrich himself.

    He didn't respect McCain after his death. Trump was still insulting him years after his death.

    The altercation incident at Arlington cemetery that Trump caused is vintage Trump. He insults the military personnel to whom he supposedly wants to show respect.

    The female Arlington employee has stated she won't press charges against Trump's team. She said she was concerned about retribution by Trump and his supporters.

    Trump's spokesperson, Cheung, said she is suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome.

    The Arlington employee is justified in being concerned about retribution. Trump had his supporters attack the police and members of Congress on Jan. 6.

    Trump's supporters hounded Ruby Freeman at her residence after Trump lied and said she produced and counted illegal votes for Biden in the 2020 election. She had to move to other residences. Trump's supporters followed her to another residence. Freeman eventually won a defamation suit against Giuliani.

    A Trump supporter fractured the skull of Paul Pelosi, Nany Pelosi's husband. Trump blamed it on Pelosi and defended the attacker by saying he thought it was a break-out instead of a break-in. In a sketchy truther-type statement, Elon Musk said he thought there was more going on with the story than meets the eye.
