Never ending bullshit. The campaign arranged the wreath laying. The campaign got the Speaker of the House to bulldoze the Army into allowing it. The campaign argued with and shoved an ANC employee who tried to stop them. Donald Trump owns this and now his slimey bootlicker LaCivita is the taunting the Army for backing down. Enough is enough. Congress must investigate. This isn’t just a base. We all have friends and family buried there. It’s not up to them.

Trump is now claiming the video from Arlington are a setup by the administration, despite the fact they were posted by his own campaign’s TikTok page. This is just another pathetic attempt to dodge accountability. He lies, disrespects our fallen, and then blames everyone else.

who does he think he's fooling?

[Lovie777]

1. DAMN.......................

STFU and freaking drop out.

[2naSalit]

6. Is this...

The part where he's deemed brain dead?

Good grief.

[2naSalit]

2. Desperate.

He's never been in the position where he couldn't bluster and bully his way out of consequence, ever. This is the time he has to employ every last tactic to get away with his criminality. I'm surprised he hasn't actually started fake crying with forced tears yet.

[VMA131Marine]

3. This is Trump's tell that he knows

he fucked up … again.

[Diamond_Dog]

4. Bullshit even a three year old can see through!

Really insulting to the American people!

[rzemanfl]

5. So tired of this sick fuck. Lock him up. n/t

[Irish_Dem]

7. It's always someone else's fault.

[ArkansasDemocrat1]

22. Never his

[central scrutinizer]

55. He's always the victim

Some strong man. You’d think a stable genius with MIT credentials would be able to outsmart them.

[Irish_Dem]

56. Yes he loves playing the victim role.

Ironic since he is the one who is the aggressor and criminal.

[Wounded Bear]

8. Always somebody else's fault...

[AllaN01Bear]

15. si.

[Turbineguy]

9. He's a very sick man.

[GusBob]

10. it kinda was a set-up, by his own staff

his campaign staff set him up, he was an unknowing dupe

given the track record, they will be fired soon

[sarisataka]

11. OFFS

The "administration" made a campaign video for Trump just to make him look bad? He need no help in that area.

[ScratchCat]

12. This isn't going to fly

If he is actually trying to say this. Its just doing more damage. I think this is the death nail because its completely insane.

[CrispyQ]

27. He's the double-down king.

He is truly the most flawed human being I've ever seen. There's not one redeeming quality in this guy. NOT. A. SINGLE. ONE.

[rubbersole]

44. AquaNet sales remain steady.

And bronzer. Let's not forget the bronzer market.

[MagickMuffin]

13. Q: Who does he think he's fooling? A: Himself

We certainly aren’t fools! We know the truth!

[ArkansasDemocrat1]

23. He'll keep fooling the MAGAs because they are fools

Why should they not be fleeced if they are not sheep?

[birdographer]

42. Exactly

They believe this 100% (oh sorry, or is it 107%?) and it just riles them up that their genius leader could be unknowingly coerced into this. The vengeful anger those cult members carry around must be almost unbearable. If only they weren't stupid and in need of a dominant male to submit to.

[AllaN01Bear]

14. nonsense.

[dalton99a]

16. 78 years old and still whining

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

50. He's been whining since he came down the escalator.

He is the World's Greatest Victim, according to him. He does not admit to making mistakes. Everything is the fault of someone else. He doesn't even know the people who are standing next to him in photographs.

Let's pretend, for a moment, that everything he says is true. He was asked by the families (with tears in their eyes, of course) to join them in a photograph. Nothing, however, explains why he is standing in Section 60 -- the most sacred space of a sacred monument -- with a thumb's up.

[Keepthesoulalive]

17. The picture didn't lie

He screwed up and he is being criticized and his little narcissistic heart can’t take it.

[SCantiGOP]

18. First, he said the shove didn't happen

Then, it happened but wasn’t our fault; now-
It happened but we were set up. By next week, it will probably go back to didn’t happen.
This is a similar path for his take on January 6th.

[BattleRow]

20. And no doubt he was

way better looking than the Arlington female guard who was physically assaulted.

[Aviation Pro]

19. Motherfucker's default is always, "It's a setup."

Fuck you, go eat a big bag of dicks.

[birdographer]

43. Or it was "rigged."

Or maybe "setup" is the new "rigged."

[Martin Eden]

21. Lying liars tend to lie

About everything.

[Zambero]

30. More lies, PLEASE!

[Zambero]

24. This will make it onto Donnie's Greatest Hits (and other lies) album

So many to choose from. it'll probably have to be a 10-disc box set. The lead-off "tune" could possibly be heavy riffing on those "AI-generated" Kamala rally crowds!

[hibbing]

25. But he's winning the internet! n/t

[Wednesdays]

26. And consequences coming in three...two...one...

...minus one billion...minus one billion and one...minus one billion and two...

[maxsolomon]

28. How did he get asked an actual question by a reporter?

With a follow up?

Some staffer really fucked up. Don't they know he can't handle a follow up?

[obamanut2012]

29. I have family buried there

None died in combat, but all served in combat, both Pacific and European theaters, in the Battle of the Bulge and on LSTs driving the launches full of personnel to the beaches of so many Pacific islands. In Burma and other places working in the early OSS and trying to save lives through spycraft.

Fuck these monsters.

[Klarkashton]

31. Trump was claiming yesterday that he didn't know

Who posted his campaign video. "I didn't do it"
He went on to throw the families under the bus about it "it might of been the families I don't know"

Now this bullshit.

[orwell]

32. Who does he think he's fooling?

...The same people he has always fooled.

The bigots,
the angry aggrieved snowflakes,
the "moral" evangelicals,
the party "loyalists",
the sociopathic billionaires, (although I suspect they are in on the grift),
the terrified old people fearing the brown hoards.

It's the same old song and dance, spewed by a clown, sound and fury signifying nothing.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste...

[Martin68]

33. Brilliant! Blame the Army and their employees in our national cemetery. I'm sure the will earn a lot of votes among

military families and citizens who support the military. Trump keeps shooting himself in various parts of his anatomy, his foot, his face, etc.

[BlueKota]

36. I hope he keeps pissing off the military.

That way if the 6 butt kissers on the SC try to install him against the majority of the people's will, the military won't be willing to help him or his enablers.

[birdographer]

45. I was thinking about this

I had thought that all the MAGAts who had just a molecule of critical thinking had peeled off, and what he had left was the hardcore rotten center of his base, the worst of the worst. But I am thinking that just possibly this stunt has caused a few of the veterans in that core to have second thoughts. With luck, he has lost more voters.

[CaptainTruth]

34. Trump is scum. Period.

[IbogaProject]

35. So who told him to smile and give a thumbs up?

Did Joe tell him to do that? How exactly were they set up? Yep, try and shift blame the old GOP standby. It is just like when they blame single moms for the budget deficit and never mention the wealthy arms dealer investors, not the greedy big pharma owners.

[kimbutgar]

37. I saw part of the tik tok video and it wasn't set up but a political photo op for a campaign ad

Of course the outrage from all of us got him more exposure on his fake care for dead veterans who he called suckers and losers. I hope the Harris media team has a good smack back ad.

[BeyondGeography]

38. Every day he shoots that person on 5th Avenue again

[republianmushroom]

39. Arlington cemetery incident

The convicted felon claims Arlington cemetery incident was a set up. And, I'm very sorry to say, it was, by mike, johnson and the convicted felons and the convicted felons staff. What a sorry bunch of A-O's.

[MustLoveBeagles]

40. Of course

It's always someone elses fault. Never his.

[MorbidButterflyTat]

41. Himself. He's fooling himself.

He self soothes with lying bullshit and he doesn't care who believes him, because his boot lickers reinforce him and post ridiculous garbage on his stolen twitter platform, with stupid idiotic mash ups of fictional super heroes that feed his bottomless narcissism.

I remember when he and his crew did the "Winter is Coming," from Game of Thrones.

His fake tough guy crap at Arlington didn't result in the adoring accolades he expected from veterans or military personnel, so now his booboo ego needs to pretend the fallout is someone else's fault, because it's ALWAYS SOMEONE ELSE'S FAULT.

[kentuck]

46. It must be bad?

He's blaming someone else.

[OverBurn]

47. Amazingly, his MAGA cult will believe him. Everything negative about him is a lie.

[twodogsbarking]

48. Well, don't say I didn't tell y'all.

[COL Mustard]

49. It WAS a setup.

The Trump campaign set it up! They own it!

[usonian]

51. I totally agree.

The deceased set him up.
Revenge from beyond the grave, using his own hyperinflated ego against him.

Next time ...



The demolition experts will get him.

[Warpy]

52. Yeah, they installed cameras there YEARS AGO

because they know that overgrown punk would show up to use a GRAVEYARD as a PROP in a xampaign ad! The perfidy of the deep state cannot be overstated!

[BlueWavePsych]

53. Kick

[FSogol]

54. It took two days to come up with that second-rate excuse? Sad.

[Attilatheblond]

57. What?!? Did they tranq him with a blow dart, put a black bag on his head, drive him to Arlington, march him out,

and put splints on his hands to extend his thumbs in an upright position?

His excuse making is at a level that would make a 3 year old blush.

[Cha]

58. Lol... Weasel on the Defensive... Run Fucking Weasel RUN!!
