The deceased husband had a half million dollar insurance policy in his life, probably more cause he was killed in action. No need for more free money from strangers.

Funny how Trump said he would bomb the HELL out of ISIS and 9 months later they have been defeated.

The NYT, CNN,NBC, etc. and Congress had better be careful, he might just decide to bomb the HELL out of them too.

“She looks and acts like a fake.”

You know she’s being managed by The Mad Hatter, and is the left’s new pet until she’s no longer useful.

Few people pay attention to that fact. Trump has 40 million followers on twitter, that is 40 million viewers.

Where is George Steponallofus?

He said Wilson was lying about the content. The call was five minutes long.

Trump went against Wilson, not the widow.

This will not hurt Trump one bit, it will help.

He did NOT say she was lying. Get it right or don’t post.

Trump directly contradicted what she said. ONE OF THEM is lying... or, at least, 'mis-remembering'.

Trump is distracting press from torpedoing tax reform. A month from now, no one will recall this while everyone will wonder how tax bill got through Congress.

I hope you're right.

But, I do wish he'd find a better vehicle for distraction.

No... the Widow was on this morning, and she confirmed that Wilson was "100% accurate". No way to separate the two now.

No offense, but you’re an idiot.

Also, Trump has more twitter followers than the big 3 networks COMBINED. So he gets double coverage.

LOL Good point!

You'll have to do better than that if you want to offend me.

I simply expressed an opinion, and added a little news to the thread. Your FIRST post also added context to the thread. The last one, not so much.

Keep trying.

You apparently think that when one defends oneself, that person is calling someone else “a liar.” Where did you pick that up? And your original post added nothing to the conversation because it was an out and out lie.

When you directly contradict some one, moments after they have spoken publicly, you are telling the world that their statements are "Not Correct".

You're right... it's not using the word "lying". That would have been worse, and not atypical for Trump. But, he didn't use that word. I'll give him credit for that.

Still though, it's a matter of semantics. It's a nuance that will be completely ignored by every newspaper, or news outlet in the country.

Fighting against a grieving widow? You lose, on visuals alone. Better to move on. IMHO.

Good grief, Donald... let it go! You cannot win public battles against a grieving widow, no matter how right you are.

It is President Trump, not georgie boy bush.

President Trump fights back, unlike the two bit RINOs we are used to.

I Thank God we finally have a fighter in the WHite House.

Wrong. When Trump tweeted he did not “go against a widow”. He went against Wilson by name.

A five minute conversation and all they can talk about is two seconds of it. What happened in the rest of the conversation? They are lying.

I hope you never serve on jury duty since you don’t know the difference between a lie and self-defense. Pathetic!

Ms. Wilson started this. And as Dennis Prager says, it is, indeed, important to know who is the instigator of trouble. She is. She’s now dragged a widow down with her.

Mr. Trump has every reason to defend himself. His tweet was perfectly reasonable.

In earlier tweets, you'd be correct. NOT on today's tweet. The following is what he tweeted, just minutes after the widow was telling her story on ABC:

I had a very respectful conversation with the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson, and spoke his name from beginning, without hesitation!

And, I hope you never work for a public relations firm I employ. You have no clue about the optics of this squabble out in flyover country.

There are better places to fight. HOPEFULLY, today's tweet is the last on this subject.

Dennis Prager is brilliant, so... I'll assume you are misquoting him, or taking his statement out of context.

Trump started this, by mentioning former Presidents in his response to the setup question. It was a bad mistake, and the Democrats (predictable) are jumping on it.

Every day this story is kept alive, is a bad day for Trump.
