Instead of a traditional tribute, Trump used the holiday to slam political opponents, calling them \u201cscum\u201d and accusing the Biden administration of destroying the country.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"515\" data-end=\"878\"><strong data-start=\"515\" data-end=\"543\">Tone Shifts at Arlington<\/strong><br data-start=\"543\" data-end=\"546\" \/>Later that day, Trump appeared at Arlington National Cemetery with Vice President JD Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, where he offered a more measured tribute. He honored fallen Marine Corporal Ryan McGee and praised America\u2019s military legacy, calling the U.S. \u201cthe freest, greatest, and most noble Republic ever to exist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"880\" data-end=\"1199\"><strong data-start=\"880\" data-end=\"913\">Politics Return to the Podium<\/strong><br data-start=\"913\" data-end=\"916\" \/>Despite the somber setting, Trump\u2019s speech soon pivoted to campaign topics, including immigration, the border, and attacks on higher education.
