Trump’s 41st post-election lie: Obama didn’t call fallen service member families

 

In a never-ending pursuit to guarantee that he is not dislodged from his exalted status as America’s Undisputed Heavyweight Liar, Donald “Trumporleone” Trump decided to add to his League Leading Average by falsely attacking his favorite target, former President Obama.

 

When called out at a recent (October 2017) news conference as to why he hadn’t publicly commented on the four (4) Special Forces soldiers killed in Niger, The Don falsely stated:

  • “The traditional way, if you look at President Obama and other presidents ― most of them didn’t make calls.”
  • “A lot of them didn’t make calls.”
  • “They have made the ultimate sacrifice, so generally I would say that I like to call.”
  • “I’m going to be calling them. I want a little time to pass.”

When a reporter pressed The Don on his claim that Obama didn’t make calls, he responded by saying:

  • “President Obama, I think, probably did sometimes. Maybe sometimes he didn’t.”
  • “I don’t know. That’s what I was told.” All I can do is ask my generals,” he added.
  • “Other presidents did not call. They’d write letters.”
  • “Some presidents didn’t do anything.”
  • “But I like the combination. When I can, I like the combination of a call and also a letter.”

The Don’s statements about Obama and “other presidents” (George W. Bush) was proven to be blatantly false by the facts set forth below.

 

Ari Fleischer, who served as spokesman for President George W. Bush ― who launched the United States into the Iraq and Afghanistan wars ― said Bush frequently went out of his way to interact with the military community. The following further prove that The Don’s a Lying Som Bitch.

 

  • “I know he wrote to the families and I often was with him when he met with families at military bases to commiserate in person.” (statement of Ari Fleischer, former spokesman for President George W. Bush)
  • President Bush “met privately with more than 500 families of troops killed in action and with more than 950 wounded veterans,” often during private sessions. (Washington Times)
  • Obama personally made a late-night visit to the Air Force base in Dover, Delaware in 2009 to receive the bodies of several soldiers killed in action
  • “President Trump’s claim is wrong” (Obama spokesman tells Huffington Post)
  • “President Obama engaged families of the fallen and wounded warriors throughout his presidency through calls, letters, visits to Section 60 at Arlington, visits to Walter Reed, visits to Dover, and regular meetings with Gold Star Families at the White House and across the country.”

So here we have a Celebrated 5-Time Draft Dodger spewing forth an assortment of lies aimed at covering his substantial ass by making false claims against Obama and President Bush.

 

This Congenital Liar will continue to knowingly fabricate falsehoods when he perceives it to be to his advantage. Put simply, there is nothing to small (even his hands) that The Don won’t lie about.
