To each their own. It's her business if she likes to be intrumentalised for political gain. And that's not a partisan statement. I would feel the same if Obama had done something like that. There isn't a single shred of honesty to be found in such an invitation.
The one thing I agree with you on is it's nobody else's business.

Poor woman, but what a non-story. Seriously, some guy on twitter who once volunteered for the democratic candidates said something grossly insensitive? Fox news scraping the bottom of the news barrel here.

I know what it means to grieve a fallen soldier... I wouldn't care what Trump was using it for as long as the hero's name was being spoken all over the country he died defending. They don't die for the fame but they deserve it. I can't stand Trump but I'm okay with putting spotlights on the fallen.

My heart goes out to the widow, it really does. Her husband was obviously a very brave man who loved his country. That being said, even the sight of Michael Moore is enough to piss me off.
I can't stand him.

Think we should hold up our fallen veterans with dignity and reverence.
However, I would prefer to see it kept more of a private matter and not politicized.
My heart goes out to Chief Owens family. They have a lot of tough years ahead.

People attacking the widow are idiots. If she didn't want to be there, she wouldn't have been there.
The Democrats politicize fallen veterans as well, and they did so during the campaign by inviting the Khan family to give a speech. I didn't have an issue with that, and I don't have an issue with this.
Trump however, should be apologizing and taking the blame for Ryan's death, just as presidents before him took the blame for the deaths of soldiers.

It's one thing to take potshots at the prez, another to aim at the widow.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

Remind me again how wonderful the WLB was to the family of that muslim soldier who was killed.
