Trump Reeling As White House Confirms That He Disrespected Green Beret Who Died In Battle

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders refused to deny that Trump told the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson that the fallen Green Beret knew what he was signing up for.

Huckabee Sanders responded when asked to clarify her earlier answer that wasn’t denying the Trump told a grieving widow he knew what he was signing up for, “I spoke specifically to the sentiment that was offered by the president. I didn’t get into the details of a personal call because I don’t find that to be appropriate. ”

The only way Huckabee Sanders could have delivered a worse answer would have been if she had admitted that this as exactly what Trump said, and that the President has zero sympathy for those who die in combat because they know what they are getting into.

The White House is twisting and turning while using every distraction technique in the book to try to take attention off of Trump’s comments. The White House smeared Obama on Tuesday, and after that, they didn’t work they moved on to Democratic Rep. Frederica Wilson.

The White House doesn’t deny that Trump disrespected a fallen soldier. In fact, they are angry at others for pointing out the President’s behavior.

Even Trump’s own White House can’t deny his comments.

Trump is reeling as he has once again caught himself in a trap of his own making.
