Wow, yet more proof that Trump is a defective, disgusting and despicable dhead.
He rang the widow of an elite soldier killed in Niger and apparently told her, "I guess he knew what he signed up for but I guess it still hurts". What a tough guy! Well, as tough as a draft dodger could be ...
And no doubt he was only calling because a journo asked him whether he'd called the families of the 4 fallen soldiers. Instead of just saying that he was going to do so, he tried to boast of being the only president who made calls in such circumstances, asserting falsely that Obama never did.
Then he trashed the privacy of his Chief Of Staff, Gen. Kelly, by declaring that Obama didn't call him when one of his sons was killed on duty and inviting journos to ring him up to ask him. Apparently, Obama had invited Gen Kelly and other Gold Star families to a breakfast at the White House and Gen. Kelly sat at Michelle Obama's table. But Gen. Kelly has previously been firm that he didn't want to discuss his son's death in public as it would receive disproportionate attention despite each Gold Star family suffering the same loss.
Maybe a bit of trouble yet for Trump regarding the 4 soldiers killed in Niger. No doubt the journo was asking about Trump's silence over their deaths because their unit had sought urgent support to fight local terrorists but support was refused, and the journo suspected Trump would prefer to forget about the deaths. Given that the GOP and Trump refused to let go of the so-called Benghazi scandal because they asserted that soldiers and an ambassador died because Clinton failed to provide the requested support, this may just be another chapter in a book full of hypocrisy.
