Not on a daily basis... and with Trump it isn't usually "with the best of intention."

Fredericka(usual liberal lies) has gotten her fifteen minutes. It's obvious she heard wrong. Matter of fact our President Trump's message to the widow was private and personal. She has no right sticking her nose where it doesn't belong.
President Trump tweeted earlier today about what this woman and what she heard was completely wrong(of course...liberals usually take everything out of context by their lies). I'm sure our President will have the last say and put a end to this nonsense.

She has long been a friend of the family and was a mentor to soldier killed.

Of course you wouldn't think this was nonsense if it was a president you didn't like.

She heard what she wanted to hear.
From what I understand she was listening in a car...She probably was listening to rap music and thought it was the President.
These liberals will lie out of the side of their necks to keep things going against our President Trump.
This is why queen wannabe Hillary didn't get in and blamed the Russians for interfering.
If you take a look back and the presidential elections...millions of Americans voted for change...we voted Trump. Those who voted knows that he is doing the right stuff.
I'm afraid more lying antics are on the way from the liberals.

Dear Salad: I'm pretty happy. It doesn't have anything to do with politics. Did I mention I'm white and a male? Doh. How could I forget? - it's so relevant. I'm also not ignorant, and not angry. Am I happy about Trump? No, not really, but I have to say that if he gets your panties this twisted up, I could learn to like the guy.

I do realize that. But its a whopping what? 30-some-odd percent?
One of the biggest reasons the USA has a half-ling as president, is that their media insisted on having his picture and words publicized non-stop, 24 hours a day, for 2 friggin' years or more. Ya wanna defeat Donald Trump? Ignore him...unless he does something of real consequence...like making laws or raising taxes or going to war. Other then that...you defeat a celebrity, but not giving him celebrity.

Oh! My! God! This call was made as the mother was at the flag-draped casket of her son, and caused her to break down and cry uncontrollably. She has now stopped crying. Her sadness has been replaced with much deserved anger.

Maybe Trump should stop listening to people saying that the doesn't call the families of dead service members, and just not call them.

This is a much different Donald Trump than the one who did interviews back in the 1990's. This is just an empty shell of what used to be a pretty intelligent guy.

Let’s be clear. You do know what you signed up for. And along with that knowledge comes the understanding that you may not be lucky every time. It’s part of the process of dehumanizing your enemy at the same time you super humanise yourself to avoid clouding your mind with what if’s at the worst possible time.

It’s much ado about nothing by people who would politicize trumps toilet paper if they could get their hands on it!

I am pointing out what her claim against our President is without valor ?
Have you heard the dialogue ?
We don't know what really happened...all of this is hearsay.
Mr. Trump did not say what was claimed...why would he.
There's no baiting here...bye.

This topic truly shows what subhuman low-lifes many liberals really are. Beyond redemption.

You can hate Trump all you want. I certainly can't stand him 90% of the time.

But I wouldn't, for one second, believe that he would say something so cruel to a family who lost a loved one in war.

You liberals....you think he picked up the phone, called this woman just to tell her, "Hey, he knew what he was getting into (so don't blame me)."

If that's what you are inferring, you are truly scum that isn't worth the air you breath.

Click to expand...

Exactly. By telling a grieving wife that "he knew what he was getting into" is as insensitive as you can get. Of course he knew, as does anyone enlisting in our military service but that doesn't change the fact that Trump lacks the ability to show empathy or handle difficult duties like this with tact and sensitivity. Some things are best left unsaid - this was one of them. One would think that a man who gets so easily slighted and goes on twitter rants and endless rampages that he would understand that "how you say" things "true" or not can cause pain to the person on the receiving end.

Sure. It sounds insensitive. It obviously wasnt meant in a snarky condescending way but I get how it was insensitive...especially when said to his widow.

But using an insensitive remark...and the tragic deaths of soldiers as yet the latest issue to attack Trump for political gain? Someone is insensitive...and someone is a ****ing ****.

I dunno. I can think of a few times people told me (not here, that I can recall) my dead friends had-it-coming / deserved-it / should-have-known-what-happens-when-you-sign-up-for-a-fascist-war-of-aggression, etc. That strikes me as somewhat more insensitive than "he knew what he signed up for".

Nor is the sentiment insensitive. On the contrary, it's the very sentiment we reach for when we want to honor the fallen and the veteran alike - that they chose to take risks for others, and that that decision is to their credit.

Instead it seems to have been the delivery; though I also believe that its awkwardness would be gleefully hyped up by the lady with the cowboy hat who has had herself on television all day long.

"I think it is appalling what the congresswoman has done and the way she has politicized this issue and the way she is trying to make this about something that it isn't," Sanders said Wednesday. "This was a President who loves our country very much, who has the greatest level of respect for men and women in uniform and wanted to call and offer condolences to the family."
Click to expand...

That she can say THAT with a straight face after Trump bragged about calling the families of dead soldiers?

How you sleep at night Sanders?
