An utter disgrace, made possible by a man who despises our country, our constitution, the rule of law and great Americans like Lincoln responsible for America’s survival.

Trump used the Armed Forces Full Honor Cordon — [servicemembers] who escort fallen heroes and heads of state — to usher UFC fighters past Abraham Lincoln’s statue like they’re celebrities on a red carpet. I am LIVID.
