Veterans Aren’t ‘Celebrating’ Trump’s Latest Arlington Claim: He Has ‘No Soul’ | EUROtoday

“This man has absolutely no soul, empathy, or understanding of human emotions,” wrote Fred Wellmana U.S. Army fight veteran, including that “you don’t ‘celebrate’ the anniversary” of your baby’s dying.

Trump’s feedback arrived throughout a speech to the Economic Club of New York the place he mirrored on his current go to to the cemetery which marked the third anniversary of the lethal 2021 Kabul airport assault.

“By the way, we lost 13 incredible soldiers. I got to know the families very well, spent a lot of time with them four days ago in Arlington cemetery,” Trump stated.

“Three years ago, they were celebrating three years honoring their children.”

The overwhelming majority of the service members killed within the assault have been Marines, not “soldiers” as Trump described them.

VoteVets, a progressive political committee which not too long ago criticized the previous presidents over his Arlington go to, equally declared that “no one celebrates the date” when their cherished one was killed and added {that a} former commander-in-chief “ought to know” Marines aren’t troopers.
