If this incident does not clearly demonstrate that Chump only cares about his interest, nothing else will. btw, a federal law was broken by Chump and his goons! However, the cult members will continue to kiss the ring!

Anyone who visits Arlington Cemetry will see the respect for everyone who is there.
You are instructed where to walk, no one should set foot on that hollow ground, I don't think cameras are allowed.
I visited there with a friend, a place we both wanted to see, we both left with respect for everyone, who gave their life for the country.

This guy has demonstrated time and again that he cares little for the military except in 'macro' cases wherein sth suits his political needs. Just why would any Gold Star family want to invite him, of all people, to commemorate with them? I'm hoping for an assault charge to come out of this, but I have a feeling it
is going to stop at a apology. The sad thing is that he won't even be embarrassed.

Well Mr. Jones speaks like an ethical patriotic man and Trump is just the opposite to that. Trump cares about no one other than himself. However, it is amusing when a person like Mr. Jones speak so highly about the freedoms the veterans fought for to preserve in America. Someone could ask him, whose freedoms?

Time and place for everything, boss. Nothing in that video tells me Cmdr Jones is necessarily dismissive or unaware of the black struggle in America. Nothing! My grouse is more with those Oreo cookies and Uncle Toms behind the idiot's podium at his rallies.

Same thing crossed my mind. Just like the anthem reverence. Humans convinced to sacrifice their lives for the nation's cause, which most times is not noble. However, one has to respect the sacrifice of giving away one's life for someone else's cause. There is definite irony with the hallowed ground narrative versus the other side's soldiers and civilians killed. That's mankind, I guess.

Anyhow, plenty intersecting venn diagrams, but common extraction is Trump's indifference to it all, enabled by those that Jaymor mentioned above
