“No Americans were harmed in last night’s attack by the Iranian regime. We suffered no casualties. All of our soldiers are safe, and only minimal damage was sustained at our military bases.”
Donald Trump, right after Iran’s attack on U.S. base in Iraq. (It was later reported that 11 U.S. military personnel were treated outside Iraq for concussion-like symptoms after the missile strike.)
“I heard that they had headaches, and a couple of other things. But I would say, and I can report it is not very serious. Not very serious.”
—Donald Trump, whose bone spurs were sufficiently “serious” to keep him out of military service, commenting in Davos, Switzerland, on injuries suffered by U.S. forces in the Iranian air attack.
“The VFW expects an apology from the president to our servicemen and women for his misguided remarks.”
—VFW National Commander-in-Chief William “Doc” Schmitz, after a Pentagon announcement that the number of injured people had risen to 34. On Tuesday it was announced the number of traumatic brain injuries to American troops had risen to 50.
I trust members of the VFW are not holding their breaths for the apology. Among President Trump’s supporters the crickets can be heard chirping, as usual.
This seems to be documented as per Trump’s tweets and “speeches”: Trump lies about everything ALL of the time! He never apologizes for anything because in his malignant narcissistic mind, he is never wrong about anything! There you have it….The President of these United States is a very dysfunctional old man with more power granted to him by these Republicans than ever in our history….and, therein lies our problem
Zoe?
Trump is a sociopath ?spelling? and his lying and egomania puts our Nation at a serious security risk. We have a process called Impeachment, I think it will work but even if we remove him, we got Pence and Pompeo, and they are on a mission from God. Seriously not the Blues Brothers. stay alert. love always ron thompson
Well he stepped in it big time when he ordered the strike on the Iranian General and to admit that his actions might have caused American casualties of any kind would be an admittance that it was a bad decision. And we know the “anointed one” never makes mistakes. Not to mention all the airline passengers that were killed as a result.
Ron Thompson, You are correct, trump is a sociopath, in addition to being a profound egotist and severe narcissist. Yet, it is his being a sociopath that more so accounts for his daily lying and daily attacks anyone who is even close to confronting him. I think that Steve Winham also agrees with my similar comments several days ago. To save our great country, it is imperative to impeach and convict him or defeat him by election
