Will the Arlington Cemetery controversy damage Trump?

Jeff, I want to talk about the Arlington Cemetery issue, uh, in a couple of minutes we have left.

That was another.

bizarre moment over the past week, the politicization of Arlington, give us your sense of how damaging that could be and why it even happened that way.

Sure, I mean, I think the first observation I would make is how unusual it is that the army weighed in and released a statement defending the individual who apparently was trying to uphold the law and prevent his campaign and the candidate from going into Section 60 of uh the cemetery which is considered hollow ground in terms of the overall implications, you know, he's Pretty strong with veterans in that vote, and yet I've also seen polling that shows that military members are are have become more disenfranchised with Trump.

Certainly he has said and done things that are controversial controversial about the military for years starting with his initial comment about John McCain and going up through his time as president and the cemetery that he didn't the cemetery ceremony in in France that his former chief of staff talked about there's a lot there and it hasn't always led to veterans or military voters departing from the Trump train as it were, but it's an important block and this was offensive to many people and not just veterans but others as well who care a lot about the military and about that cemetery.

I have a feeling we're going to be talking about that issue again on this show before we, before we hit the election, but unfortunately we need to leave it there for now
