Vice presidential candidate JD Vance hit back at Team Kamala on Wednesday for criticizing Donald Trump’s visit to Arlington National Cemetary to honor the 13 fallen service members killed during the Afghanistan withdrawal three years ago.

From The New York Post:

Vance’s swipe came after the Trump campaign reportedly got into an altercation with a cemetery official at Arlington National Cemetery, who tried to stop them from filming and photographing in Section 60, the burial site for military personnel killed while fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq.

In an interview with CNN, a spokesperson for Harris, Michael Tyler, called the incident “pretty sad” and “not surprising.”

The VP pick was asked to comment on the incident at a campaign event in Erie, Pa., when he became visibly frustrated and sniped that the Democratic presidential nominee “can go to hell” if her team wanted to use it as an opportunity to attack Trump.

“The other thing that our veterans care more about is that three years ago, 13 brave, innocent Americans died. And they died because Kamala Harris refused to do her job and there hasn’t been a single investigation or a single firing,” he said.

“Kamala Harris is disgraceful. We want to talk about a story out of those 13 brave, innocent Americans who lost their lives? It’s that Kamala Harris is so asleep at the wheel that she won’t even do an investigation into what happened. And she wants to yell at Donald Trump because he showed up?”

She “can go to hell,” he said.

Vance also said the story was blown out of proportion by the press.

“The altercation at Arlington Cemetery is the media creating a story where I really don’t think that there is one,” he said, noting the Gold Star families wanted Trump there and that the incident was not an “insult” to the memories of the fallen servicemembers.

One Gold Star family member who was at the cemetery with Trump backed up the campaign’s version of events, and claimed the cemetery staff was “lying.”

“We are the ones that invited Trump. He didn’t invite himself,” Darin Hoover, the father of Marine Staff Sgt. Taylor Hoover, told The Post in a phone interview Wednesday.
