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

Yes, it does.
To be clear for everyone, this is the the widow that the crazy congress lady was using.
This is another widow who released the phone call with her to show what the call is like.

I can’t believe that “cow-gal Minnie Mouse” is being paid any attention at all. She’s a carnival barker’s sideshow freak with the IQ of a turnip. Seriously.

The problem is not just with this absurd woman, but with the fact that the press ran with her bogus story and made it the story of the day. Trump did a good thing - he took the time to make a personal call to a military widow (which is NOT required by protocol) and offered his condolences. Somehow, this got spun into the claim that Trump is callous and self-absorbed, almost as if he had taunted the widow.
The focus of the criticism was that had Trump started off by saying that the widow's husband knew what he was getting into when he joined the military, i.e., that he knew that it was dangerous. This is just a commonplace fact, not an insult. What was he supposed to say - "You're son was a blithering idiot who didn't know what he was doing"? Trump then went on to say that prior awareness of the risks does not eliminate the pain and sorrow of the soldier's death.
The members of the press once again demonstrated that they are complete a**holes.

Are you sure? I thought the soldier in the recent controversy was killed in Niger or Nigeria, not in Afghanistan, and that it happened just in the past week or two.

You are critiquing the media, Trump didn't say any such thing as you describe.

That's odd, because I don't see it as a problem here at all. In fact, for nearly 2 years now, I encourage the Democrats and the media to continue this type of erratic vindictive behavior.☺
