Donald Trump,2024 Presidential Election,US Military,Afghanistan
U.S. Army veteran Lucas O’Hara undercut claims that former President Donald Trump had used a Monday ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery to promote his 2024 presidential campaign.
Trump attended and participated in the wreath-laying ceremony — honoring the 13 American service members who were killed during the Biden-Harris administration’s disastrous exit from Afghanistan — alongside veteran and former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) and the families of the fallen. Neither President Joe Biden nor Vice President Kamala Harris attended.
