This will backfire on the Dems, and expose some of their more fringe members (to put it nicely). I just thank God we have a President willing to fight these stories when necessary.

He created the story when he tweeted about Obama not calling fallen soldiers. So he had to put out a fire of his own making. And you thank God for that.

Typical liberal mindset: It's not the Dem Senator's fault. We have to look at what caused her to listen in on a widow's condolence call and politicize it.

In your world, everything is Trump's fault.

And BTW, I do approve of Trump's critique on Obama and his attitude toward the military. I do thank God for a pro-military President.

Second word in your post is a pejorative, "Liberal". Shouldn't even bother going on, but here goes...
It wasn't a Dem Senator that listened in on the call.
Trump started the politicizing of condolence calls.

Still, Congresswoman Wilson was wrong to bring it up. Happy now?

No, because you still place the blame on Trump rather than the Congresswoman. Trump making a tweet saying Obama didn't make enough calls is nothing close to what this woman did, nor the cause of what this woman did, nor the cause of the controversy. This is the productive of the dems and media.

And liberal mindset is not pejorative. Nor is conservative mindset. These represents the 2 basic groups in America today.

In your world the President of the United States accusing a former President of not making condolences calls is nothing close to a Congresswoman complaining because she alleges the President said something insensitive about a fallen soldier. Okey-dokey.

You believe a congresswoman listening in on a condolence call, then politicizing it, is the same as Trump tweeting about condolence calls? Okay-dokey.

No, I think it is less offensive than Trump accusing Obama of not making condolence calls. Offensive, yes, but not as offensive as one President calling out another one. What was Trump trying to accomplish?

No, that's not the way this went down - Trump was asked Monday when he was in that joint press conference with Mitch McConnell why he had not said a thing in two weeks since these soldiers died in Niger, Trump replied with: "If you look at President Obama and other presidents, most of them didn't make calls — a lot of them didn't make calls — I like to make calls when it's appropriate."

Of course, that wouldn't stand with the MSM, they corrected him soon afterwards, then later in the same conference, Trump said:

. "President Obama, I think probably did sometimes, and maybe sometimes he didn't. I don't know. That's what I was told."

I think all that Trump was trying to accomplish was to answer the original question, too bad he didn't know what he was talking about yet again. But the Congresswoman is a known whackjob and a big Trump hater, her word is probably less reliable. The uranium case has blown wide open and Johnson did make some stupid remarks herself about sexual harassment.

The MSM went there, and this seems to be a new tactic of the left: "TRUMP INSULTED A GOLD STAR FAMILY!". Just like Khan.

I think Trump believes Obama didn't care enough about the military. He's was also responding to a very vocal post-presidency on Obama's part. Fair game. Obama wants to talk, Trump will respond.

Yes...even if he never served. Poor thing, bone spurts side lined him (5 times).

Er, you do realize neither Hillary nor Obama served, right?

And you do realize Benghazi was Hillary and Obama's fault, right?

Otherwise, an excellent comeback. :rolleyes:
