Just caught this and honestly it's hard to even find the right words. A former GOP lawmaker went off on MSNBC yesterday talking about Trump's latest fundraising email, and the guy was legitimately furious. So here's what happened - Trump sent out a campaign fundraising pitch that included a photo of him at a dignified transfer ceremony for soldiers who died in Iran's retaliatory strike on the Kuwait embassy. That's the part that set people off.

Denver Riggleman, who used to be a Republican congressman, called the whole thing absolutely vile. And I mean he was really upset about it. He said using the deaths of American service members as a backdrop for a money grab is just... there's no word for how wrong that is. He literally said the American language isn't even expansive enough to describe how vile the move is.

The thing that got him most heated was the brazenness of it - not just doing it, but doing it publicly in a fundraising email. He kept saying it's vile because these are his brothers and sisters in arms being used as a fundraising tool. He questioned whether it's just a lack of understanding about what's appropriate or something deeper, but either way he made it clear this crosses a line most people wouldn't even approach.

Riggleman went pretty hard at the end, basically saying if this is the state of things then we've got a toddler in charge of the military with access to serious weapons. The whole tone was just disbelief that something this vile would even be considered acceptable in a political campaign. It's one of those moments where people across the spectrum seemed to agree this particular move was just wrong on every level.
