Harris Criticizes Trump for Arlington Cemetery Incident
News summary

Vice President Kamala Harris has criticized former President Donald Trump over a controversial incident during his visit to Arlington National Cemetery, where he participated in a wreath-laying ceremony honoring 13 US service members killed during the Afghanistan withdrawal. Harris condemned the event as a 'political stunt,' claiming that Trump disrespected 'sacred ground' for personal gain, emphasizing that veterans and service members deserve the highest respect. The incident involved altercations between Trump's campaign staff and a cemetery employee who attempted to enforce rules against political activities in the cemetery. While Trump’s campaign asserts they had permission from Gold Star families to film, federal law prohibits political campaigning at military cemeteries. The US Army has acknowledged the incident and stated that attendees were made aware of the regulations beforehand. This exchange highlights the ongoing tension between Harris and Trump as they prepare for the upcoming presidential election debates.
