      Read your comment after seeing the image, went back and noticed the fake tan, gave me a good chuckle.

        Agree the editing looks good, but I don’t feel the template fits. I don’t think the orange one is capable of the realisation and self reflection depicted in the last panel.

    NPR: Trump campaign staff had altercation with official at Arlington National Cemetery

    Two members of Donald Trump’s campaign staff had a verbal and physical altercation Monday with an official at Arlington National Cemetery, where the former president participated in a wreath-laying ceremony, NPR has learned.

    A source with knowledge of the incident said the cemetery official tried to prevent Trump staffers from filming and photographing in a section where recent U.S. casualties are buried. The source said Arlington officials had made clear that only cemetery staff members would be authorized to take photographs or film in the area, known as Section 60.

    When the cemetery official tried to prevent Trump campaign staff from entering Section 60, campaign staff verbally abused and pushed the official aside, according to the source.

      It gets better. To prove that there was no altercation, the Trump campaign have promised to release video footage.

      These people are terminally stupid. Every single one of them.

        The Trump campaign declined to make that footage immediately available.

        Yeah, that’s not coming out.

          Oh, for sure. But the point is, the whole altercation supposedly occurred because they were trying to film in a place where its illegal to film.

          Why the fuck would you then claim to have video footage of that???

              From the NPR article linked above

              “Federal law prohibits political campaign or election-related activities within Army National Military Cemeteries, to include photographers, content creators or any other persons attending for purposes, or in direct support of a partisan political candidate’s campaign,” according to the statement. “Arlington National Cemetery reinforced and widely shared this law and its prohibitions with all participants.”

      JFC the campaign response is at least as diabolical as the incident itself. Fuck these guys so much. They deserve so much retribution from so many people but we will have to be satisfied just working to thump them at the voting booth.

      The Afghanistan withdrawal happened because it was arranged during the Trump administration.

      It was supposed to happen in May, Biden pushed it back to August.

        It’s honestly kind of disgusting how much time both administrations had to pull out of there after that withdrawal was set in stone, and it was still a last minute clusterfuck!!! All the DoDs shit should’ve been shipped back long before the deadline, it literally could have been just a couple desk jockeys putting their stuff in a box and walking into a plane.

          A phased drawdown could have invited more attacks. It was done quickly so the taliban wouldn’t have time to react. Not that I’m happy with how it went or how much fucking gear and people got left behind, but I at least understand the thought process.

            It was “done quickly” because the Taliban was actively trying to enter after the DoD ran the fuckin’ clock out. There is no excuse for doing fuck all in advance (that i am aware of); both administrations screwed the pooch here, and people died as a consequence, both soldiers and afghani civilians who were abandoned by the US. It’s disgraceful.

      This piece of shit goes around saying that nobody died in that operation on how watch.

      Just like how Joe is a piece of shit for also saying nobody died. He stood in front of the nation and denied what happened to those thirteen people…as well as others.

      “Truth is, I’m the only president this century that doesn’t have — this decade — any troops dying anywhere in the world like he did,”

        He said “doesn’t have” on July 3 2024, not “had”. It’s called present tense in English.

        Unlike Trump, Biden does not currently have troops dying anywhere in the world.
