Trump to widow of Sgt. La David Johnson: 'He knew what he signed up for'

[Anonymous]

I won’t assume one thing about who you are or why you feel the need to come on an an anonymous website to trash all Generals after living in bases your whole life. I will make inferences from your postings though.

We see that with General Kelley. Can you liberals not see that your hatred has completely clouded your judgement, causing you to spit on the most admirable people this country has to offer?

Next thing I know, you'll say Kelley picked on the "Congresswoman" because she's black, although I believe it's already been implied.

Shockingly (sarcasm), the Congresswoman went there. "That's a racist term, too. I'm thinking about that one. We looked it up in the dictionary because I had never heard of an empty barrel."

Displaying her foolishness again. I've never heard of it either but I didn't need help to understand it's meaning. I'm going to assume she meant that she Googled it, because idioms aren't found in the dictionary. And she learned that it was racist. I'd like to know where she found a racist connotation. Source please, Madam Congresswoman? Oh yeah. According to Charles Blow, NYT writer, "Everything is racist, until it isn't."

Congresswoman Wilson's behavior has been reprehensible, and her mocking, facetious attitude displayed this morning shows she thinks she's subjected to a different standard of conduct. And I am condemning her behavior, even though she's black. Sue me.

Hallelujah! You hit the nail on the head.

please keep defending her motives .

Sure, I'll defend Wilson's motives just as long as you defend a President who has disrespected multiple gold star families.

Democratic Florida Rep. Frederica Wilson is laughing and bragging after White House chief of staff John Kelly said he was “stunned” Thursday that Wilson criticized President Donald Trump’s call to the widow of a dead soldier.

“You mean to tell me that I’ve become so important…that the White House is following me and my words? This is amazing. That’s amazing. That is absolutely phenomenal. I’ll have to tell my kids that I’m a rock star now,” Wilson told Miami Fox affiliate WSVN-TV, while laughing.

She planned this the whole time. Despicable.

Dp. Thanks for posting this. In my mind, I heard “my son” perhaps due to the context of the entire situation. Thank you for clarifying this for me.

You did hear her say "my son" this morning. If she was that close to this family, she would get her face off the TV. She complains they're tired of the cameras. GTFO with that. She got them into this and she's gleefully proclaiming to be a rock star as a fabulous benefit she got out of it.

She can’t help but make it about her.

Did you say that about Patricia Smith?

Not the PP, but Patricia Smith is and was a grieving mother. Can you not see the difference between an anguished mother who lost her child and a Comgresswoman who looks to score political points wherever she can, no matter how inappropriate?

I see no difference when a decades old family friend speaks on behalf of a grieving mother who lost her child, at her request. Disparaging this gold-star family’s representative just because she is in Congress is the same as spitting directly into the face of the family.

Happy National Character Counts Week

The grieving spouse asked the Congresswoman to go on national television and announce that Trump mocked her in the phone call - and intentionally taunted her in her saddest moments? Because that it was Wilson did.

uh... that's a bit of a pot calling the kettle black, a la HRC.

But I notice how Trumpsters have completely ignored the fact that Trump lied... yet again. First he said he never said this, and now, his people are admitting that he did. But notice how he never came out and admitted. It's always his handlers that have to clean up his verbal vomit.

Please, this is a good time to focus on honoring the sacrifices of Gold Star families and those who mourn.

Yay! That is because I have common sense, something liberals are lacking.

By the way, I have a poster who has said "you hit the nail in the head" in response to my posts before. Was that you?

Yes, and that is why Wilson should have kept her trap shut.

This may be a cultural issue. I don't mean black or white, I mean DC/Northeast/Mid-Atlantic and elsewhere, where colorful is not an insult and is tolerated or prized in a leader or politician.

But her behavior aside, she's correct. It is inappropriate for the president to attack her, to punch back 10 times harder.

Actually,that's good news. It shows that there are more of "us" than these far-left Lipkins want to acknowledge. Some of the have said there is a SINGLE conservative on here. In their arrogance, they assume everyone agrees with their POV, save for one outlier.

What! It's the Dems who are politicalicizing this. Quit lying. What do you liberals want?? You wanted him to call the soldiers families and he did. He did the best he could. I really don't know what more you guys want sometimes. Quit nitpicking so much and maybe he would be more calm.

Fact: Trump criticized a Gold Star family last summer.
Fact: The GOP had Patricia Smith, a Gold Star parent, speak at its convention last year.
Fact: Trump raised the issue of what previous Presidents did or didn't do with respect to Gold Star families.
Fact: Trump called a Gold Star family and made a grieving widow cry in a fetal position in a car.

How the fuck do you suggest this is "the liberals" fault?

This is snowflakism to the extreme - the President doesn't get a pass from the public, including the media. If he cannot handle it, he should resign.

Unbelievable.

Wilson is just playing to her brain-dead base.

Only an absolute moron could believe that the president of the United States would call the family of a soldier who died in the line of duty and disrespect that family.

Even for leftists, that's a new low.

Are you suggesting the other family members in the car, who have corroborated the account, are lying?

Respect the troops - except when they are dead and you can gain political points by slamming them and their families, I guess, is how Republicans roll. And I'm sure this family and member of Congress being black doesn't make Trump and his minions feel all the more entitled to say whatever he wants to and about them.

Who's to say he punched back harder? She took a private moment and used it to ridicule the president, slinging mud for all the nation to see. He simply defended himself. (I know that flies in the face of liberal preferences, where you can sling mud and call names but conservatives have to STFU.)

I was quoting Trump and Melania, who said he punches back 10 times harder.

He attacked her. Or, as you say, defended himself. I believe that is inappropriate.

You are part of the problem, I’m sorry to say. You want to rail about some Congresswomen for some reason instead of focusing on the real issue. Here let me make it simple for you;

And also important but forgotten by someone who finds glee in cyber bullying:


You don’t deserve to stand during the anthem.
