Trump's campaign could get away with the Arlington National Cemetery confrontation because the Army is not forthcoming, says Rep. Adam Smith

63% Informative

Donald Trump has offered a distorted account of the confrontation at Arlington National Cemetery over his aides’ use of the site as a backdrop for a campaign video.

Three senior House Democrats are set to release a new statement Tuesday that increases the pressure on the Army for more information.

The Army has yet to provide Democrats in Congress with its internal incident report detailing the confrontation.

The bigger matter at stake here is the fate of basic accountability in the Trump era.

The Army fears that being too forthcoming with information about the incident will open it up to charges of being “political” But Trump and his movement have spent years attacking our institutions precisely in order to spook them into refraining from holding them accountable for unscrupulous or illegal conduct.
