Fair point...

Trump tweeted that he said his name from the beginning, without hesitation.

Mrs. Johnson said he didn't remember it and then stumbled as he read it.

So who you gonna believe, eh?
I'm unconvinced either side is telling the whole truth. I'll never know of course as I wasn't privy to the phone call. In any case, I think it's pretty obvious that Trump could've handled the discrepancy differently.

You cannot expect rescue mission from an unknown hostile territory to be perfect. Honestly speaking, 48 hours does not sound out of ordinary.

When an op fails, there will be an investigation underway. So this whole "They intentionally left him behind" accusation is irresponsible. (pretty ignorant too.)

Clearly.

As Mrs. Trump puts it, he hits back twice as hard. I suspect that a lot of people back down after he accuses their fathers of being assassins and so forth.

However, I wouldn't bet on Mrs. Johnson or Congresswoman Wilson backing down.

Still wondering when we will hear from Kelly again.

Listen to her audio. She says Trump could not remember the name but then she states Trump called him by his name.

Tell us why she might not tell the truth? Blinded by Trump hate?
Why would I need to tell you why she might not be telling the truth?

I'm not a Trump groupie attempting to defend his comments and call this widow a liar, so why don't you direct your questions to the appropriate people.

Mrs. Johnson just come forth on TV to back up the Congresswoman and tell her impression of the call and with in minutes Trump tweeted his version. He just can't let it drop.

Perhaps he should have stayed silent.


At least he did not lie to their face like Hillary did to the Bengazi widows.
