“That man doesn’t deserve to have been the commander in chief for my son, my uncle,” he said, referring to Beau Biden and Ambrose Finnegan, who both served in the military
President Joe Biden choked up Wednesday talking about the military service of his family members and former President Donald Trump’s disparaging remarks about service members.
“They asked [Trump] to go visit American gravesites. He said, ‘No.’ He wouldn’t do it. Because they were all ‘suckers’ and ‘losers,’” Biden told a crowd of union workers. “I’m not making that up. The staff who were with him acknowledge it today. Suckers and losers.”
He paused for a moment and added, “That man doesn’t deserve to have been the commander in chief for my son, my uncle.” Beau Biden and Ambrose Finnegan both served in the military before Trump took office.
Biden’s comments referred to Trump’s 2018 trip to Paris for the centennial of the end of World War I, when he declined to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and reportedly called Marines who died at Belleau Wood “suckers” and fallen soldiers at the U.S. cemetery “losers.”
The use of his sons death by the opposition party is even more horrendous in my opinion. Imagine having such little ammunition (against someone who is definitely not immune to critisizm) that you have to attack the mans dead son. Fucking deplorable
He’s immune to factual criticism, because righties live and die in their own fantasy land; where bad is good (as long as they’re doing it).
So I’m assuming you can’t provide any examples of such? It’s a serious question. ANYONE using it as a political tool is deplorable, I’ve honestly never seen the opposition leveraging Beau’s death against Biden. I’m genuinely curious.
Let me present an argument that you has a zero sum for you to do so I can come off as superior. Standard right wing chicken shit arguing.
@Sleepybear claimed the opposition used Beau’s death more than Biden did. I’m simply asking for something to back that up. If it’s happened, that’s not fine and I’ve said as such. BOTH sides using the death of a serviceman for political gain is fucking atrocious, don’t you agree? Or are you only ok with it when it’s one sided?
can you show any examples of such? I’ve never heard anyone but Biden mention Beau.
