I would venture a guess you are significantly more intelligent than many who voted for him my friend. Or as he would put it. "JIMGA is very, very smart, an amazing, great thinker. I mean, I don't know if you have noticed, but there is some great, great thinking going on there folks, it's beautiful." |

Yep. Still a lot of hate and hubris up in this one.

Trump's, Fuck the GOP, strategy is going swimmingly. A new CNN poll gives Dems a +16 advantage on the generic ballot.

Don’t worry. “Fake news”, “build the wall”, “5.2M off the national debt”, “Obamacare is dead”, “amazing tax cuts”, and other mantras with no basis in fact will stir up (R) votes. Almost best for the media to not publish polls to not allow Trump to rail against them.

So thank god other "No other Presidents called the families of fallen Soldiers" if this is what they are told.
Seriously, this is who you allegedly comfort a grieving family? Frederica Wilson says Trump told widow of fallen soldier 'he knew what he signed up for' |

Disgusting remarks from a guy that avoided military service on 5 different occasions and now treats the military as a toy he can play with.
Yesterday, he also used his Chief of Staff’s, General Kelly’s, dead son as the reason why he hadn’t called the families since Obama didn’t call Gen Kelly after his son died in combat. Just gross that he would use someone’s dead son as an argument to cover up for his lie. The man has no shame. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn...all/index.html As a former military member, I didn’t sign up to be ambushed and/or die; I signed up to serve and protect my country. I knew that I could possibly be in situations where my life would be taken, and I was prepared to lay down my life if the situation called for it. Hell, I had that conversation with my wife on many occasions. I also expected my family to be comforted after the fact with the knowledge that I didn’t die in vain. Telling a pregnant spouse, that just lost her husband after being ambushed, “he knew what he signed up for, but I guess it still hurts” is just appalling and shows the lack of empathy or caring that he truly has for anyone that serves. We aren’t toys that you can move around on the floor, Don; we’re people too. But, hey, flags and kneeling is disrespectful to the military or some bologna.

Saying "that's what he signed up for" to a widow almost sounds exactly like fake news from the DNC. It's almost too good to be true from an oppositional standpoint. I wouldn't be surprised if he indeed did not say any such thing (just as I wouldn't be surprised if he did). But, here's the deal: it's been proven on a daily basis that he lies about things, so there's no benefit of the doubt here.

His benefit of a doubt card expired about 6 months ago. Guess we will see when the family finally comments, but he is so fucking awkward when he has to talk off script I am not even the least bit shocked he would say something so insensitive. I will also be curious if the other families that he called comment. |

What in the fuckity fuck?
WaPo is reporting that in June Trump called the father of a deceased soldier and offered him a 25K check. Which of course he didn't send until the report was public. He's a deeply broken man.

T can literally say anything he wants, true or not, without any ramifications. This is learned behavior and thus far, he's right and likely has been his entire life so until he's proven otherwise bet on the trend.

Glad Gen Kelly is in the White House to help keep an eye on things. Very good press conference today on the “Trump phone call to Gold Star family” situation and helped put things in perspective a bit. Trump was wrong, the congresswoman who ran to the media was wrong, the staffers in the White House who doubled down and brought Kelly into it were wrong. Sad that Kelly had to be the one to, hopefully, put this thing to bed considering what he’s had to go through with losing his own son.

The fact that he can willingly work for a man who has denigrated others in his position, as a gold star parent, causes me lose nearly all respect for him.
