even after the DNC Kamala has nothing, it seems. with the way polls work right now, all swing states being 50/50 is basically Trump +4 in every swing state

I'm baffled by the "I'm voting for the prosecutor not the felon" Kamala merch.

Criminal prosecutors are right up there with bioethicists as being the worse people on the planet, they are almost always power hungry sociopaths.

Never let them memory-hole the fact that it was a misdemeanor unilaterally raised to a felony because Orange Man Bad. And that it was past the statute of limitations.

It doesn't have to make sense or be consistent with past positions. The only thing that matters to the left is being anti-Trump. Trump is now a felon, so the most opposite of that is a prosecutor. Take the L, chud.

Pozzed Army falls for the recent false narrative regarding Trump. Pay no attention to multiple eyewitness accounts that said no altercation happened.

The US Army issued a stark rebuke of former President Donald Trump’s presidential campaign over the incident on Monday at Arlington National Cemetery, saying in a statement on Thursday that participants in the ceremony “were made aware of federal laws” regarding political activity at the cemetery, and “abruptly pushed aside” an employee of the cemetery.

“Participants in the August 26th ceremony and the subsequent Section 60 visit were made aware of federal laws, Army regulations and DoD policies, which clearly prohibit political activities on cemetery grounds. An ANC employee who attempted to ensure adherence to these rules was abruptly pushed aside,” the Army spokesperson said in the statement on Thursday.

“This incident was unfortunate, and it is also unfortunate that the ANC employee and her professionalism has been unfairly attacked. ANC is a national shrine to the honored dead of the Armed Forces, and its dedicated staff will continue to ensure public ceremonies are conducted with the dignity and respect the nation’s fallen deserve,” the statement said.

The Army spokesperson said while the incident was reported to the police department at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall, the employee in question “decided not to press charges” so the Army “considers this matter closed.”

Trump was visiting the cemetery following a wreath laying to honor 13 US military service members who were killed at Kabul airport’s Abbey Gate in Afghanistan three years go.

An individual physically blocked Trump’s team from accompanying him during the Monday visit, two Trump campaign officials said. A cemetery spokesperson confirmed to CNN “there was an incident” and a “report was filed” but didn’t provide additional details.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump appeared to suggest the incident stemmed from his campaign’s use of photography, sharing a statement from the family members of the fallen soldiers expressing their approval.

“We had given our approval for President Trump’s official videographer and photographer to attend the event, ensuring these sacred moments of remembrance were respectfully captured and so we can cherish these memories forever,” the families said.

But according to a statement from Arlington National Cemetery obtained by CNN, federal law prohibits political campaign or election-related activities within Army National Military Cemeteries.

The cemetery said it “reinforced and widely shared this law and its prohibitions with all participants,” which includes “photographers, content creators or any other persons attending for purposes, or in direct support of a partisan political candidate’s campaign.”

Trump’s post came after a report from NPR about a “verbal and physical altercation.” A source with knowledge of the incident told the outlet that a cemetery official attempted to prevent Trump’s team from photographing and filming in the area where recent US casualties are buried. In response, Trump campaign staff “verbally abused and pushed the official aside,” according to NPR.

Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung disputed claims of a physical altercation, but said an unnamed individual decided to “physically block members of President Trump’s team during a very solemn ceremony.” Cheung suggested that Trump’s team has video to back up the claim.

Trump campaign manager Chris LaCivita shared a similar account with CNN, saying in a statement that “President Trump was there on the invitation of the Abbey Gate Gold Star Families to honor their loved ones who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country.”

“For a despicable individual to physically prevent President Trump’s team from accompanying him to this solemn event is a disgrace and does not deserve to represent the hollowed [sic] grounds of Arlington National Cemetery. Whoever this individual is spreading these lies are dishonoring the men and women of our armed forces, and they are disrespecting everyone who paid the price for defending our country,” LaCivita continued.

CNN’s Colin McCullough contributed reporting.

ABC News rejects Kamala Harris last-minute bid to change Trump debate rules, will keep muted mics​

ABC News has declined to adopt Vice President Kamala Harris’ request to have wholly unmuted microphones during her Sept. 10 debate with former President Donald Trump — after days of wrangling over what Republicans viewed as Democrat attempts to lay a trap for the GOP nominee.

A network email reviewed by The Post lays out similar rules as those for Trump’s June 27 CNN debate against President Biden — including no audience, no pre-written notes or props and muted mics when a candidate is not speaking.

Trump and Harris will be standing on stage and will only be allowed to have a pen, a pad of paper and a bottle of water.

So did anything actually happen at Arlington beyond some Cemetery staffer having a melt down? I’ve seen the pictures with the families. Some are a bit tone deaf (Trump doesn’t know what to do with his hands and gives a thumbs up, but it seems mixed with solemn and celebratory).

They supposedly have the video, is it just some faggot like physically blocking people and someone just walks through him?

The pozzed faggots at the cemetery and the Pentagon decided Trump had a photographer and cameraman there to film the event for campaign purposes, ignoring the explicitly stated reason by the families, that they were there to take pictures and video FOR THE FAMILIES. There is no blanket ban on photography and video recording at Arlington. See they Just Knew (TM) what Trump was REALLY up to because

Never mind that Obama had pictures and video taken of him at Arlington in 2011 that his campaign used in fundraising emails/social media posts in 2012 and no one said a fucking word
