Kamala Harris condemned Donald Trump's recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery, calling it a "disrespectful" political stunt. Trump, joined by Gold Star families, laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to mark three years since the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. Footage of the visit was used in Trump’s campaign videos, sparking criticism for violating federal law. Harris emphasized that the cemetery is "not a place for politics," while Trump’s campaign defended their actions, claiming family members invited him to the event. Harris accused Trump of politicizing "sacred ground."
