"...whether you can imagine either Barack Obama or George W. Bush (or any president) feuding..." with family of an American soldier killed in action.

The leftwing media's memory hole is not operating as well as they've expected. The following are but a few of many more about the media's long "imagined" president, on yet another part of her history they would have you forget:

"Hillary Clintons Benghazi Lies: Pat Smith Charles Woods"

"Watch Clinton Call The Mother Of A Benghazi Victim A Liar"

"Benghazi Victim's Father: Clinton Lied 'to Myself And to Other Family Members'""

What we now have is this: The President of the United States in a war of words with a Democratic congresswoman -- and, by extension, the widow of a fallen soldier -- over what he said when he called her to offer his condolences after the death of her husband. And both Trump and Wilson are alleging they have "proof" that the other is lying.

A person is accused of something and they defend themselves by claiming they can prove they are innocent.

Obviously the question is whether or not the accused really can demonstrate their innocence.

But no, not to the Leftwing nuts pretending to be journalists. For them the question is how they can spin this to be the fault of the accused independent of whether or not they are innocent.

It would be easy enough to resolve. Get Obama to release the recording of the conversation.

But of course he won't do anything to help Trump.

Trump probably said something along the lines of “he was a brave patriot who knew he was risking his life for his country” and the racist Wilson decided to make a smear of it.
