Interesting to listen to. This wife reacted differently.


Thanks for posting, pp.
It is a real shame this Congresswoman felt the need to go public with HER impression of his call. It was not her place nor was it appropriate.


The Congresswoman was expressing outrage on behalf of the family because the family was so distraught. This is not about the Congresswoman or the family, as such as Trump and Kelly are trying to deflect for you to believe so.



No, she actually made it all about her. After all, she is now a “rock star” and is reveling in her newfound celebrity.


Nope, that is just the version through Trump colored blinders.

Why not? We have a crazy person for a president. She might as well enjoy the crazy while she can. Would it be better if she turned tail and ran, when she is attacked by the president and slandered by the president's chief of staff? That would make her look more respectable to you?

+1. She and Trump are in cahoots together to make this all about them!

He's made a lot of calls and probably forgot the exact words. Do you remember every word of every phone call you've made?

+1 Seriously... Trump can't give a speech without making it all about him. Look at his speech at the CIA, Boy Scouts, etc.. it's always about him?

And people are complaining about a Congresswoman's reaction to what Trump said, and not what Trump actually said? Wow, talk about deflection.

People should care more about with the POTUS says to a grieving widow rather than a Congresswoman's reaction to what he said. It's really sad and disgusting far Trumpsters will go to excuse/justify/distract Trump's complete irrationality and stupidity.

Wilson secured the naming of the building for two slain FBI officers - men in blue.

And the version of events as described by Kelly were outright false.

But boy, was he solemn in the way he lied.



And, she spent the first half of the speech talking about her own part in the process. That is what Kelly remembered. It was inappropriate for her to take the credit. The rest was quite nice. Just as I am sure that Trump's call to the widow was kind. Wilson jumped on something she did not like. Kelly did the same thing.

I am heartsick that my phone call caused you any grief. That was never my intention. Please forgive me for any stress it caused you and your family. Your husband La David is an American hero. He will forever be remember by myself and all Americans. He is the best of Us.

Your country will always be here for you and your family

People like PP are more upset that Trump is bad at performing consolation than they are about the actual soldiers' deaths.

I'm very upset at the "actual soldiers' deaths." If you were "actually" upset, you might know that they were "marines," not "soldiers."

They might not have died if they still had the support of the Chadian forces who were also fighting terrorists in the same region, until they pulled out on September 29 after Trump inexplicably included Chad in the most recent travel ban.


Unfortunately you are not as smart as you think you are.

Sgt. La David Johnson was in the Army. A Green Beret. That's US Army Special Forces, not Marines.

You should be ashamed of yourself for caring so little for those that have fallen in service of this country. Its worse than Trump forgetting his name.

Trump supporters — how do you think Trump should close out this episode? Multiple people have suggested saying something like, I meant the best for the family, I understand it wasn’t perceived this way, perhaps I didn’t express myself well, but I wish the Johnson family the best and express my strongest condolences.”

What’s your message to Trump I’m putting this episode behind him?


I think Schumer should tell Frederica Wilson to shut the hell up, get off the TV, and get on with doing her job.


That’s all you got? There’s nothing Trump and the WH can do to close this out

If someone said to me that I said to a grieving widow, "oh, your husband knew what he signed up for'.. then yes, I would probably remember that because I have empathy; actually, I would probably never say that. If he didn't remember saying it, then that's what he should've said, not "I never said that".

BTW, even his own lawyers have insisted that more than one lawyer always be present with Trump because he lied so much. This makes me think he either did remember it and lied or that he's got NPD to say such a thing then completely deny it and seriously believe he never said it. Either way, it's scary that we have a POTUS like this.

But thanks for trying to justify why he lied, yet again.

Just stop. She did not. Are you Russian? Kelly remembered wrong and lied. C'mon, we all make mistakes, you have to own them. Kelly and Trump should just own that this whole thing went down poorly and move on. Because this video is her receipt.

She gave credit to Sen Rubio, Boehner etc. WTF are you talking about?


I guess the rest of the world watching this video today will come to their own conclusion, which will be very different from yours.

Fox did a nice segment a couple of days ago about the 4 who died in this attack.
They highlighted their lives, their families, and how they have been remembered by friends and families.

These brave men should be the focus of our attention.

It's disturbing the mental gymnastics people will go through to defend a disgusting man like Trump. John Kelly has tarnished his legacy. History will be unkind to him.
