White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby held a phone gaggle with reporters on Monday where he spoke about the third anniversary of the deadly Abbey Gate terror bombing at the Kabul airport during Biden’s retreat from Afghanistan that killed 13 servicemembers and over 150 Afghans and wounding dozens more.
One reporter asked Kirby why neither Biden, on vacation in Delaware, nor Kamala Harris, hiding out from reporters in Washington, held any public observance of the anniversary of the attack like Trump did at Arlington Cemetery Monday morning with several Gold Star families and Abbey Gate survivors. Kirby said that Trump was personally invited by the families of the fallen, implying Biden and Harris were not invited.
The observance at Arlington National Cemetery Monday morning was a stirring tribute by President Trump.
Trump participated in three wreath-laying ceremonies at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier for three of the fallen with their family members and wounded Abbey Gate survivors.
Many of you may have caught this clip of President Trump at Arlington honoring those who fell in Harris’ Afghanistan withdrawal.
But did you catch the footwork?
Watch the video below:
That was one of the first things I picked up on! Speaks volumes about the level of respect he has for the occasion.
He did go to military school, marching in step is a requirement.
So imagine Harris or Biden instead?
You can’t they didn’t even bother to show up!
