He's also got quite the knack for disrespecting soldiers.

Violating women, too

Violating women ✔️ Violating minorities ✔️ Violating lgbtq+ ✔️ Violating third world countries ✔️ ✅️ Violating federal and state laws ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ Being a treasonous pos while peddling Russian propaganda and their... checks notes... beans? ✔️ x's 10

Violating deceased American war heros graves???? Check ✔️ 😕

Violating the oval office worse that bill and Monica ✔️

Not to mention the many 70 something election/ fraud/ real estate crimes he has committed.

What's next? Is trump gonna break into my house and violate me? Unfortunately he already has, he's violated every single us citizen by infringing upon our rights as Americans and I'll be dammed if I'm gonna let this orange cunt into my house again, bc that's what happens if he wins, we are allowing djt into our homes, our schools, our hospitals and beyond.

My fellow dems, arm yourself, be prepared for the worst

There's a chunk of the population for whom this is a very big deal, and it's easy to communicate what happened.

Humans have honored the dead since before homo sapiens. Laws can be complicated, contradictory, and confusing; respecting the dead is clear and primal.

Yeah, this probably won't change a lot of minds, but some folks will see there is something wrong about a man who would dishonor the dead to celebrate himself.

"You gotta remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new west. You know. Morons."

Every little bit helps

Also it helps that he’s going progressively off the rails as time goes on, so his reaction to getting caught for this stuff is getting less and less hinged month by month

I think that most Americans, regardless of political affiliation and regardless of how they feel about the various wars we've been in over the centuries, find the idea of using our honored dead as political props profoundly offensive. I personally hope that this is the red line finally and the bastard can start facing some real consequences.

It very well could be the line among his supporters who are members of the armed forces, veterans, and their families.

They might have overlooked all the scandals and outrageous things through his campaigns, presidency, and sedition, but this is where many of them have buried their spouses, grandparents, family, and friends.

Just another example that in Trump world only one thing counts: Trump. There are no principles . America does not come first. It’s really just him. Incredible how people can vote for someone like that.

Thats assuming the media (especially the broadcast media..) reports on what he did truthfully and with the full details.

Which they rarely, if ever, do.

because they have a vested financial and ratings based interest in the chaos he creates, because it drives ratings and enriches them.

Online only. News networks are all in Trump's pocket.

I think Benedict Arnold was a higher rank, but I guess it depends on if the US counted as a "country" at that time. Lee was a colonel when he betrayed the US and became a general under the Confederacy, while Arnold was a general at the time he betrayed the US.

No shit, right? It's not just Trump. There's a whole lotta people there. Completely free from consequences, every single one.

You can see why, as much damage as they do, how appealing it is to live a life like that. Fuck the living, fuck the dead, fuck the future. Just do whatever you want.

I think the main impact will be to convince a modest but significant slice of voters to not vote for him.

Here's another indication of the state of their marriage.
