Donald Trump is facing backlash for his recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery. Plus - Trump fills his social media feed with QAnon references, threats to jail lawmakers, and a crude comment about VP Harris. Basil Smikle and Susan Del Percio join Symone Sanders-Townsend on The 11th Hour to discuss.
Sen.
