Doesn't sound like he called him, does it?

Six months and Obama couldn't find the time nor the inclination to call the General and offer condolences. What a piece?

Six months. That's fricking appalling.
What's appalling is dragging the death of the son of your CoS for this kind of shite.
Act like a man for once.

So you hate Trump because of "I bet"? Is that a definitive phrase or an opinion? You're back into pre-election mode I see.

Would 2wks later have been better for you?
I had several brothers killed in Afghanistan or Iraq in the years right after 9/11 and all of their families received condolence phone calls from 42 within days of the death.
A group breakfast 6 months later does not pay the respect that sacrifice deserves, regardless of who is POTUS.

Sooooo, he didn't call him?
Nor did he meet individually with Kelly. It was an organized event for multiple parties. Not a personal meeting at all.

Don't kid yourself. You won't believe otherwise no matter what Kelly might say.

Obama knew Bergdahl left his post and went over to the towel headed taliban. He knew everything that happened including losing of our bravest men looking for this Ahole. Then Obama has a rose garden ceremony for his parents after Susan Rice called Bergdahl a hero and after he traded 7 of the worst terrorists from Gitmo for Bergdahl's release. This is all you need to know about how this Muslim freak show you lefties call a president viewed our military.
I rest my case !
I rest my case !

Yeah. He used the death of a United States general’s son as a political tool to try and show that he is the best person ever. He’s bestest president ever.

In fact, White House visitor records show Kelly attended a breakfast Obama hosted for Gold Star families six months after his son died. A person familiar with the breakfast — speaking on condition of anonymity because the event was private — said the Kelly family sat at Michelle Obama’s table.
Did they give him a souvenir T-shirt?
One that had:
I lost my son and all I got was a seat next to a woman that was never proud of her country in her adult life AND this stupid T-shirt!
Printed on it?

Well, Trump certainly is the first politician to ever use a soldier's death for political gain

Does not equal Inviting him to a general gold star family breakfast 6 months after the fact. AP and you have clear agendas in this matter

You guys are insane. This all started when Trump said he called families of fallen soldiers. He also said other Presidents did other things, but he likes to call. It wasn't derogatory at all. Anyone who saw the actual interview would know that.
But you rabid lefties thought you had a "gotcha" and went nuts. Now it is blowing up in your face.
Trump: Obama didn't make calls
Dems: LIAR!!!!! PROVE IT.
Trump: Gen Kelly
Left: HOW DARE YOU USE A DEATH FOR POLITICAL GAIN!!!!!!

quote:Hey, dumb arse...Obama's flunkies are trotting out a Gold Star family meeting that happened at least 6(six) months after Kelly's son was killed. Think about that for a minute: 6(six) months.
Until Kelly comes out and says he and his family received no outreach from the WH, I will not believe otherwise.
How could a Commander-In-Chief not even be able to pick up a phone to call his own 4-Star in charge of the Southern Command at least within days of the notification of the General's son's death in action? Or do you not think Gen. Kelly deserved that simple sign of respect and courtesy?
And even if you accept that the Gold Star meeting happened, what kind of shite-for-brains hides behind a ceremony that happened 6(six) months after the fact to deflect from not making this call?
You are a dumb arse...

You conveniently left out the part where he said other presidents did not call. That’s the derogatory part that you left out.

An outright lie from Trump has more downvotes than upvotes
That should tell you about the state of this board
And this is coming from someone who dislikes liberals as much as the next mouth-breathing coonass, Trump-ballsack licking retard on this board

You're trying to have it both ways.
First you are claiming that Trump saying other Presidents didn't call was a derogatory statement, then you are trying to claim that no big deal that Obama didn't call because he had Kelly over for a breakfast instead.
you are being flat out dishonest in this thread. Trump's statement was only derogatory b/c you WANT it to be.
Was he throwing a little shade and implying that his way was better ? Yes. But who gives a frick? Only TDS infested morons like yourself
