    I read a few of the stories about the whole incident, and how they pushed their way around and slandered the worker for trying to enforce the rules. Typical Trump move. Anything for a photo publicity shot, and no rules apply to him, not even at a site where soldiers are laid to rest. it's about as sickening as Trump standing there smiling with a thumbs up at the grave. He must have asked them all to do his thumbs up gesture and smile for that second shot, like thumbs up for the orange man.

    Exec at Trump Media Jumped the Line for U.S. Visa After Company Lobbied GOP Lawmaker

    While there have been concerns about donors and special interests seeking to curry favor with the Republican candidate for president, this is the first known instance of a politician helping Trump in a private matter involving his social media business.

    And it shows that as Trump has presented himself as an immigration hawk, his company has sought special treatment to bring its own foreign executive to the United States.


    His administration generally pushed U.S. companies to hire Americans over foreign workers and instituted policies that made it harder to secure visas for skilled workers. Trump’s current platform pledges to “strengthen Buy American and Hire American Policies.”

    Trump Media’s relationship with the executive, a software developer in North Macedonia, began in part because American candidates for the same work were more expensive, according to a person involved.

    Dan Berger, an immigration attorney who handles such cases, called Trump Media’s hiring of a foreign worker “hypocritical.”

    Not surprised at all. Even while Trump was president Mar-A-Lago was cited for hiring illegal immigrant labor.

    Like with Arlington Trump has always felt the rules don’t apply to him.

    Also to remind people that not only did John Kelly confirm that Trump at the US cemetery in Normandy did question what was in it for US soldiers who died as President he was forced to shut down his foundation for defrauding charities for veterans.

    Yeah, he has always flaunted the rules, the law, and lashed out at anyone trying to stop him from doing as he pleases. It's always about him and his entitlement. The man-child raised on a silver spoon. In his twisted mind nothing he says applies to him personally when it comes to law and order, immigration, the Bible, or anything else. He's a walking talking hypocrite.

    Albeit this is one and only one voter but ...

    The 'Let The Felon Speak' Tactic Is Working

    MSNBC’s Katie Phang said that Trump’s rallies look like they aren't impressing the felonious former President's supporters.

    Phang pointed out that one Trump supporter who left a rally early told The Guardian that she wouldn’t vote for him in 2024.

    “I voted for him in 2016 and had a Trump flag in the front yard. I voted for him again in 2020 but didn’t put the flag out that time. I’ve been thinking of voting for him again because Biden’s been so bad for the economy and Kamala won’t be any better. But after listening to that, I’m actually afraid of Trump being President again. I don’t know what he was talking about half the time. Perhaps he was always like that but he seems worse, more unstable.”

    MG (Ret.) Paul Eaton shares the emotional experience of honoring our fallen, including his own father, at Arlington.

    He’s OUTRAGED at Trump for "mugging for the camera" at such a sacred place.
    Trump should NEVER be Commander in Chief again!

    Damn! She isn't holding back on her feelings about Trump. The sad part is that everything she says is true.

    This is another example of how the current Rightwing can’t help themselves.

    All Trump had to do was show up at Arlington lay a wreath and be quiet and respectful. Since neither Biden or Harris showed up that would’ve been a very successful political move just being there.

    Of course though Trump has or mug for the cameras and violate the rules against shooting campaign videos there and what could’ve been a moment that makes Trump look presidential
    It reminds people of why he is such an unsavory figure.

    What Trump has proven to me is that 40% of the people in this country care more about their own pocketbook than the health of the country overall. We all obviously care about money, Harris tax plan gives the middle class a tax break and taxes corporations and the wealthy as IT USED TO BE under Eisenhower (A republican)....

    It is just good governance.....

    He proved that the buying power of the dollar was better and the cost of living was better. Trump will make America great again, n when ya say "when was it great"- 16-20, way better than what ya got going on

    I find the memes mocking Trump using the photos at the cemetery just as disrespectful. People need to put politics aside and show some respect for our fallen soldiers.
