Donald Trump’s campaign was warned about not taking photographs before an altercation at Arlington National Cemetery during a wreath-laying ceremony earlier this week to honor service members killed in the Afghanistan War withdrawal, a defense official told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive matter concerning Monday’s events. It came a day after NPR reported, citing a source with knowledge of the incident, that two Trump campaign staff members “verbally abused and pushed” aside a cemetery official who tried to stop them from filming and photographing in Section 60, the burial site for military personnel killed while fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq.
They claim they were “given permission” to film there. Except it turns out the “permission” was given by the families, who can’t actually give permission to film in the cemetery.
Then they claim that there was no altercation, no pushing, and the cemetery official was having a mental health crisis anyway - which will sounds very Narcissist’s Prayer of them.
The cemetery official has declined to press charges, saying they didn’t want to be targeted by followers of The Orange One.

Sound very Soviet to me. “You didn’t see any graphite on the roof because it isn’t there… This man is delusional, take him to infirmary”
The republicans learn from their masters well.
So if I were to announce my candidacy, go there with a professional photographer, then yell and push people I would also get away scott free, right? Or is the permanent backing of an angry, violent prone mob also a requirement.
Right? I immediately thought of Ron Swanson’s note, but at least he was nominally in charge of the parks.
He instead tried to focus on the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, calling Harris “disgraceful” for not firing anyone for the deaths of service members in the terror attack. “She can go to hell,” Vance said.
I like this part because it shows they just want retribution. Lessons learned?* No. Just fire someone.
*Besides that everyone said Trump shouldn’t have telegraphed everything.
Donald Trump’s campaign was warned about not taking photographs
But ofc they were. Then they completely ignored it.
What’s the point of honoring the deceased if you can’t put photos of it in a campaign email?
I’m starting to think this trump fella is an ass
