Veteran groups criticize Trump for “politicking” at Arlington National Cemetery

Criticism, especially from some veteran groups, continues to pour in following Donald Trump's visit to the Arlington National Cemetery on Monday.

Some members of Trump's campaign got into an altercation with an official when they allegedly tried to film the former president after a wreath-laying ceremony. The official reportedly tried to eject a photographer working for the campaign when she was “abruptly pushed aside,” the Army said in a statement to Scripps News.

Federal law prohibits political activity, including photography, at any military cemeteries. The army stated the cemetery employee was acting with professionalism and trying to ensure the Trump campaign followed the rules in Section 60 — a heavily restricted part of the cemetery that's reserved for recent deaths
