One of two staffers involved in the altercation at #Arlington #National #Cemetery is a deputy campaign manager for Donald Trump’s reelection bid, NPR has learned.
Mr Trump insisted this week the incident did not happen, highlighting a growing disconnect between the messaging of the candidate and his campaign.
NPR is identifying both staffers after the campaign’s conflicting responses to the incident last week outside Section 60 of the cemetery, where many casualties of Iraq and Afghanistan are buried.
The two staffers, according to a source with knowledge of the incident, are deputy campaign manager #Justin #Caporale and #Michel #Picard, a member of Trump’s advance team.
