In a joint statement, some of the families said they were “appalled by Kamala Harris’s recent attempts to politicise President Trump’s visit”, and accused her of “disgracefully twisting this sacred moment into a political ploy”.
“Vice President Harris bears responsibility for the deaths of our sons and daughters. Her administration’s catastrophic mishandling of the Afghanistan withdrawal led to the murder of 13 servicemembers, including our children.”
The group claimed Ms Harris had ignored “multiple requests for a meeting to discuss the deaths of our loved ones”, and had shown “a complete lack of empathy”.
