In case anyone was wondering, this is the bullshit perspective Republicans are jerking each other off with:

Harris was asked to be there by the Gold Star families and she refused. Her and Biden both refused. They are responsible for the casualties that occurred during that Afghanistan pullout, and they couldn't face the families despite being asked to be there.

That should be the story.

But nah. Desperate media makes it about Trump taking pictures with the family who asked him to take pictures.

This is why no one trusts the media.

So, to sum up, "Poor Trumpie", "desperate media", "don't trust 'the media'", somehow Biden and Harris's fault, and no mention of the rules of the cemetery or assaulting the employee.

Well, it can't be Mr. "I-don't-know-anything-about-any-bad-things-and-take-all-credit-for-all-good-things" Trump's fault now, can it? He's absolutely immune, infallible, perfect and if reality doesn't agree, then we just rewrite reality until it fits. Easy.
