Well, luckily for the former president*‘s campaign, it wasn’t raining on Monday, when he grotesquely used Arlington National Cemetery as a campaign prop because, as we know, he gets a little nervous around soldiers’ graves in the rain, and he says things that require him to lie his ass off later. Most recently, of course, he devalued the Congressional Medal of Honor in favor of a bauble he draped on Rush Limbaugh and the wife of one of the sleaziest of his sleazy donors.
Sure, but we’re not talking about some random dude, are we? The man was literally the commander-in-chief of the US military for 4 years making him literally their boss.
On top of that, it’s fucking Donald Trump and his (armed) cronies pushing the person aside.
Somehow I doubt some young Private working guard duty at a cemetery is going to opt to brandish his firearm against the US Secret Service in the presence of the former (and possibly future, ugh) President of the United States. They’re not going to get into a fucking fire fight with the goddamn Secret Service at Arlington Cemetery. Get real.
If this were a military installation of some sort, or Gitmo or something, then yeah. But that shit ain’t happening at a cemetery.
