Trump visits Arlington National Cemetery after lashing out at political opponents in Memorial Day post
CNN ^ | 5/26/25 | Donald Judd and Kevin Liptak, CNN

President Donald Trump is visiting Arlington National Cemetery for Memorial Day on Monday hours after blasting his political opponents and perceived enemies as “scum” in a social media post marking the solemn occasion honoring America’s war dead.

In the early morning Truth Social post, Trump criticized members of the federal judiciary as “USA hating” as well as “monsters,” and his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, as “incompetent.”

The all-caps message, posted just before 7 a.m. ET, sees the president wishing a “Happy Memorial Day to all, including the scum that spent the last four years trying to destroy our country through warped radical left minds,” which he writes were responsible for illegal immigration into the country under Biden. Trump went on to suggest that 21 million people entered the US illegally under the previous administration — a figure not borne out by US Customs and Border Protection data, as previously reported by CNN

Huh, "lashing out"? All Trump is doing is peaking the truth.

Liberals, CNN, and MSNBC, are like vampires seeing the cross, when presented with the truth.

Happy Memorial Day to all...

Lashing out leads to mistakes like this.

On Monday, Obama weirdly talked about honoring the nation’s “unbroken line of fallen heroes — and I see many of them in the audience today.”

Meaningless. You continue to employ a guy who is going around selling a book in which he admits he REPORTED lies.

Right, he is speaking the truth. I don’t do politics on Facebook, but I see some of my leftist friends are really, really mad about what he said. Oh well.

There is no disconnect in trashing Americas enemies then honoring her heroes.

They know about lashing out.

A headline about Trump is incomplete if it doesn't include mention of him "lashing out".

As it stated on one demonstrator's poster seen somewhere on the interwebs, "We deserve better psy-ops than this."

Trump has been on the other end of “lashing out” for nearly ten years.

Some have suggested that 47 would be his “revenge” or “retribution” term, and perhaps they're right.

His adversaries are certainly deserving of it.

All the networks will use the phrase “lashing out.” They’ve been giving marching orders on the Journo-list.
