TL;DR Summary

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, a veteran himself, criticized former President Donald Trump for his disparaging comments about a wounded Army captain, Luis Avila, who had lost a leg in Afghanistan. Trump complained about Avila's presence at a military ceremony and instructed the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to never have him at a public event again. Buttigieg condemned Trump's pattern of attacking those who serve the country and emphasized the need for respect and unity towards veterans. Trump responded with a swipe at "Fake News reporting."
