Hostile Democrat Congresswoman manipulates family of fallen Green Beret

NY Times:

Mother of Slain Soldier Says Trump Was Disrespectful

  • President Trump said the soldier “knew what he signed up for” during a condolence call, the mother of Sgt. La David T. Johnson said.
  • That backs the account of a Democratic lawmaker, who first described the exchange between the president and the man’s widow. Mr. Trump has denied saying those words.
This poor woman is a victim of a Democrat Congresswoman with a visceral hatred of the President.  She deliberately twisted his words of condolence.  Nothing Trump said was disrespectful.  Everyone who volunteers to go in harm's way knows they may not come back alive and so does their family.  That is why they are so special to this country, and it is shameful to see Democrats manipulate a family for political advantage. 

I was an officer in the Marine Corps who was wounded in action as XO of a rifle company of Marines.  I guarantee you that every Marine in that company knew they were putting their life on the line and they volunteered to do it anyway.  That is something that most reporters and many in Congress have not done.  I can also guarantee you that their families knew they were putting their lives on the line for this country.

There is something despicable about this story, but it is not the President's words of condolence.  It is the attempt by some Democrats and some in the media to politicize the event.

I get the feeling there are some in the anti-Trump media who are looking for a distraction from the recent revelations about Russian collusion by the Obama administration and the Clinton family in the Uranium deal.  It has become clear they knew there was bribery taking place and did the deal anyway.  That is a bigger smoking gun than anything uncovered to date about the so-called Russian collusion in the election.  It was a story that was buried by none other than Robert Mueller and James Comey.  In terms of US national security and corruption, it is significantly more important than this attempt to smear the President by a hostile Democrat congresswoman.
