You’d hope that Memorial Day would be an occasion — perhaps one of the few occasions in modern American life — where people within our mainstream political parties would engage in the spirit of bipartisanship in the name of remembering those who gave all for our country.
Yet again, hopes were dashed. You probably won’t be surprised who happened to dash our collective yearning for at least momentary unity, at least if you can read a headline.
However, it doesn’t just bear mentioning that the Democrats decided to use Memorial Day as a cudgel against President Donald Trump’s administration. Instead, we need to note how abhorrently that cudgel was wielded and how the party basically ghosted everyone after the backlash, pretending that it never happened and giving everyone a pro forma post saying how they “remember and honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.”
At first, however, they decided to use those who made the ultimate sacrifice in Iran to make a summary case againstDonald Trump:

No memorial for the tens of thousands of its own citizens that Iran has slaughtered since the end of last year for the mere crime of protesting the regime. Nope: 13 American servicemembers have died in Iran, and therefore Bad Orange Man got involved in Bad Iran Conflict and is responsible.
The time to remember this, of course, was apparently the one day that we set aside for remembering our war dead, no matter what their race, creed, gender, and (most importantly) political affiliation.
Meanwhile, here was the White House post:
Today, we honor all Americans who made that ultimate sacrifice not in service to a person or party — but to their nation.
