WASHINGTON: US Vice President Kamala Harris criticised Republican presidential rival Donald Trump on Saturday over a visit he made to soldiers' graves at Arlington National Cemetery that was later used in campaign video footage.
He also visited Section 60 of the Virginia cemetery, which the military considers hallowed ground. Federal law and Pentagon policies do not allow political activities in that section, but Trump's campaign took videos and used them for advertisement purposes as he battles Democrat Harris in a close race for the White House.
Bill Barnett, left, grandfather of Darin Taylor Hoover, and Republican presidential nominee former president Donald Trump place a wreath at Arlington National Cemetery, Aug 26, 2024. "Vice President Harris, why will you not express your condolences yourself? Why have we never heard from you?" asks Christy Shamblin, mother-in-law of Sergeant Nicole Gee, who was among those who died in the 2021 withdrawal, in one video.
Harris, 59, became the Democratic nominee in the Nov 5 presidential election after Biden, 81, pulled out of the race in July.
