Nine members of the Kennedy family have joined the legal fight against Trump's D.C. arch, arguing it would disrupt views and cast shadows over their ancestors' graves at Arlington National Cemetery.
The gravesite of former President John F. Kennedy at Arlington National Cemetery sits on the same axis as the Lincoln Memorial (seen in the distance). Kennedy's ancestors say Trump's 250-foot arch would not only disrupt the view between the monuments, but cast a shadow over his grave.
