ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) — President Donald Trump has paid tribute to fallen service members during a Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. He honored what he called the “great, great warriors” Monday, yet veered into politics, boasting that he’s fixing the country after “a long and hard four years.” Although the holiday is typically a solemn one, Trump began it with an all-caps Memorial Day message that attacked his predecessor and called federal judges who have blocked his deportation initiatives “monsters who want our country to go to hell.” More than 400,000 are laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery, and there he commemorated the sacrifice of the fallen.
