Army has different account of Trump campaign Arlington National Cemetery incident

The Army is rebuking the accounts made public of an apparent incident at Arlington National Cemetery's Section 60 involving the Trump campaign. CBS News' Eleanor Watson breaks down what's known.

If any of us pushed the ANC staffer out of the way to do what we please, we'd have been arrested.

Why should the female Arlington official have to press charges against the Trump campaign members who broke rules and pushed her aside? The Army and the Arlington Cemetery should follow through on the violations Trumps party committed and take appropriate action.

[dirtysherman]

The Army needs to press charges and have them all permanently banned from entering in the future.

[politicaljoe]

If they keep calling her a liar and saying she suffers from mental health, she should press charges...

[Coryraisa]

I've been to that beautiful sacred cemetery.

And it is _NO_ place for selfies, thumbs-up grinning or clowning about.

I’m Canadian, and had the opportunity to visit Arlington National Cemetery when I was a teenager. I cried and cried that day over 45 years ago. It is a sacred place, and deserves nothing but our utmost respect and protection. To use it for a campaign photo op is beyond disgraceful.

[hellowellallen]

that’s some bs. How could one not press charges? The military should press charges if the woman isn’t.

If you're an ex president "I didn't know the rules" should never come out of your mouth when it comes to Arlington.

[jamesgeorge]

When was the last time the US Army said a former president was a POS ? All you need to know. Defending trump is pissing on service to America.

[marysibayan]

Go Army for supporting the staffer and making it public.

[paulras]

Why didn't he visit the past 3 years?? Oh that's right, because he didn't need a photo op then.

[phillydragonfly]

I am an Army veteran. I was appalled. When the Army says an ex president is a liar and a piece of sh*t, I believe the Army.

[paul]

She should sue Trump for defamation for saying that she had a psychotic event.

[djaa]

It's disrespectful for a draft dodger to even step foot in one of our national cemeteries. But for them to disrespect an active service member saying she's crazy from PTSD is wild.

These hypocrites have no class

[whitmeister]

Cadet Bone Spurs has no business using fallen service men and women as props for his photo ops!

[sherrygrobaski]

So if they broke federal law... WHY are we not seeing them arrested?

[glum]

So they do 3000 of these ceremonies every year, and the one time they have problems, it’s when trump comes to town. Trump just causes so much headaches. Get rid of this guy.

[remcogreve]

The lack of respect for normal working people doing their job of these entitled rich conservative men is sickening.

[HughLlewellyn]

I KNEW as soon as I heard them say the Arlington Cemetery worker was "clearly suffering from a mental health episode", that they were talking about a woman. Typical. Of COURSE they shoved her aside. Of COURSE they had zero respect for her, for the rules, for their surroundings, for military service, and the American people.

[vegasvalleymom]

Since he BROKE the law, arrest him and hold him accountable. If she doesn’t feel safe, the military should take the lead and do what would be done if I were to do the same. 😢🤯🤬
