“The family must have scolded her for making this all about her...rock star indeed.”

Agree 100%

Was this before or after she bragged about "being a rock star now"?

Timing is everything. The gofundme was created Oct 16 by myeesha (I suppose the wife), the rodeo cowgirl was somehow in the limo to hear the phone call Oct 17. What better way to gain exposure for the fundraiser (over $600k) than to brew up a national charge of racism and the President disrespecting a black family ? The fundraiser would never seen the light of day without political and MSM exposure. IMO

Wow. Listening to the full audio transcript, you realize what a flat out lie that congress critter was pushing.

...and has the press apologized? (Of course not. They’re busy earning their “Fake” status.)

Well, for a rock star, that was a short rise and fall or a one hit wonder.

You solved it. $, race-baiting and damaging CINC, all the RATS have left in their powerlessness.

Someone must have played a recording of the real
conversation to her and told her to clam up before
she destroys the party.

Actually, I think she looks like a crazy bag lady. And this is what her constituency wants representing them? And she’s the toast of the Democrat Party?

HER HANDLERS wrote that statement...

Now she will replace them, She likes the limelight, just like others in her Party.

She actually is an embarrassment to the entire Nation.

Here is the reason this lying POS is retreating!

Gold Star Widow Releases Trump’s Call After Husband Was Killed In Afghanistan!:

Gold Star Widow Releases Trump’s Call After Husband Was Killed In Afghanistan
Daily Caller ^ | 10/20/2017 | Henry Rodgers
Posted on 10/20/2017, 9:25:15 AM by SeekAndFind

Gold star widow Natasha De Alencar released the audio of a phone conversation she had with President Donald Trump in April about the death of her husband who was killed in Afghanistan.

“I am so sorry to hear about the whole situation. What a horrible thing, except that he’s an unbelievable hero,” Trump told her in the call about her husband Army Staff Sgt. Mark R. De Alencar, which The Washington Post released.

“Thank you. I really, really appreciated it,” she said. “I really do, sir.”

Trump also told the widow if she is ever in Washington D.C. that she is welcome in the Oval Office.

“If you’re around Washington, you come over and see me in the Oval Office,” he said. “You just come over and see me because you are just the kind of family … this is what we want.”

“Say hello to your children, and tell them your father he was a great hero that I respected,” Trump said. “Just tell them I said your father was a great hero.”

The phone call was released after White House Chief of Staff Gen. John Kelly pushed back against Florida Democratic Rep. Frederica Wilson’s criticism that Trump told a Gold Star widow “he knew what he signed up for.”

Because, like Libs do, you throw the bomb and walk away. Too many people will remember the bomb, and never choose to listen to the facts after the fact.

Why would Kelly’s job even remotely be in danger? I have heard her quote on this several times, can someone explain why that has clearly become a leftist talking point that Kelly is trying to save his job? He is doing a fantastic job!

Polls are showing this destroying the DNC over this new low. The military is the only institution Americans trust and using a soldier’s death as a soapbox is especially disgusting.
