President Donald Trump told the widow of a soldier killed in an ambush in Niger that her husband “knew what he signed up for,” according to a Florida congresswoman who says she heard part of the conversation on speakerphone. “Yeah, he said that. To me, that is something that you can say in a conversation, but you shouldn’t say that to a grieving widow.” She added: “That’s so insensitive.” But in a Wednesday morning tweet, Trump said Wilson’s description of the call was “fabricated.” “Democrat Congresswoman totally fabricated what I said to the wife of a soldier who died in action (and I have proof). Sad!”

Heard PART of the conversation!!!

When fighting for ones country by signing up (know what they signed up for). Nothing insensitive about that. And to turn a positive around is as low as it gets! Our President didn't look the mom in the eyes and lie saying her son was killed because of a movie!
