Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) has joined those defending former President Donald Trump over his Arlington National Cemetery visit, during which he paid respect to the 13 servicemembers killed during the 2021 attack at Abbey Gate in Afghanistan.
Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, criticized Trump online for visiting the cemetery last week, claiming he “disrespected sacred ground” to perform a political stunt. Since then, the family members of the 13 servicemembers have released videos clarifying that they invited the former president to the cemetery. DeSantis is the latest person to defend Trump.
