The New Abnormal co-host Danielle Moodie was appalled at reports this week alleging a “physical altercation” between a Trump employee and Arlington National Cemetery official.

“When we hear that and you understand that these greasy grifters–because that’s what these people are–they do anything for a photo op. Nothing stands in the way of them getting a photo op,” Moodie said.
“And it’s so disgusting to think that you would desecrate the memory and the resting place of our armed forces for your own political gain when you were expressly told–and by the way, Donald Trump was president of the United States, so he knows these rules, it’s the fact that the rules don’t apply to him. And they don’t apply to the people that exist in Donald Trump’s sphere.
