In sparring with a grieving widow, Trump follows his no-apology playbook

I dont care what you say, "Bone Spur" is the first president to be tough enough to stand up to grieving military widows.
Obama didnt do it, "W" didnt do it, not even Reagan was tough enough.

That's right! And who else but our Glorious Leader Gropingfuehrer could bash a Gold Star family during the campaign and still "win" election?
Rump! Rump! Rump!
 
A grieving widow wouldn't be pimping out her husband for fame and politics. A true grieving widow wouldn't want any part of such nonsense.

You must be Mann Coulter's twin. She had snarky comments about the 9/11 widows "enjoying their husbands' deaths so much." For shame.
 
(CNN)Dear Mr. President,

I've interviewed you multiple times.

You've introduced me to your family.

You've also criticized me publicly ... both in front of cameras and on Twitter.
Calling me "hateful," "dumb," a "lightweight."

Calling me "hateful," "dumb," a "lightweight."

Some of your friends have suggested you expected better of me.

I'm not sure why you'd expect anything other than fairness and facts first.

We know you get a lot of your news from TV.

Several of your friends and supporters have told me you watch this show.

So, since I have this platform, I'd like to speak to you personally right now.

I feel compelled to after this latest controversy with the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson.

essentially called her a liar.

Mr. Trump, please stop it. Please stop!

Think of what Sgt. Johnson would want. You are putting his widow in the terrible position of having to fight for her dignity when she should be concentrating on taking care of herself, her health, her two children, and the one on the way.

Listen to what Myeshia Johnson said this morning in an interview on ABC.

"The President said that he knew what he signed up for but it hurts anyways and I was -- it made me cry because I was very angry at the tone of his voice and how he said it. He couldn't remember my husband's name. The only way he remembered my husband's name because he told me he had my husband's report in front of him and that's when he actually said La David."

I know you have children -- and two daughters.

Can you imagine Ivanka or Tiffany in Myeshia's shoes?

Having a fight with the commander in chief while they are pregnant and grieving?

If Myeshia Johnson is mad at you, take it.

Just as President Bush and others did.

Take it.

It's part of what YOU signed up for when you decided to descend that escalator and throw your hat in the ring for president.

You're commander in chief, the President of the United States of America, the greatest country on Earth.

Act like it.

Act like you know that you're big enough not to have to win every fight or respond to every criticism.

Act like you know where the high road is.

Confident and secure people ask for help, and for forgiveness.

Insecure people think they know everything and need no help.

And think about this: The only Gold Star families you have attacked are people of color. How does that look?

Apologize.

And I'll end with some words to help you do that. You are welcome to use them.

And now I'm going to speak directly to Myeshia Johnson, as you should.

Mrs. Johnson,
Since the President seems incapable of finding the right words, let me speak for the entire country.

We are all sorry for what you're going through.

All grief is different and we cannot imagine how deep and profound yours is.

We agree with you that La David, your hero husband, was an awesome soldier, a great man, and a great American.

We know from what has been written about him that he wanted to be someone great -- do great things with his life, and he was.

He's a role model to me.

When his photos come on the TV screen or I see them in the newspapers I am incredibly proud of him and what he accomplished.

And to be extremely candid, as a black man, I am always looking for role models who look like me, and the latest one I found was your husband.

La David.

May he rest in peace.

And may you find peace when you can finally get a good night's sleep, knowing that this is America and we got your back.

Believe that.

Signed,
Don Lemon

Best part of this letter: "If Myeshia Johnson is mad at you, take it. Just as President Bush and others did. Take it.

She was right. Anyone who's grieving isn't mugging for every camera on every daytime show. That's common sense.

This is one of the ugliest things I've ever heard in regards to people dead from a terrorist attack. What's it to Mann how anybody grieves? I never heard that she lost somebody to violence.

“These self-obsessed women seem genuinely unaware that 9–11 was an attack on our nation and acted like as if the terrorist attack only happened to them. They believe the entire country was required to marinate in their exquisite personal agony. Apparently, denouncing bush was part of the closure process.” And this part is the part I really need to talk to you about: “These broads are millionaires, lionized on TV and in articles about them, reveling in their status as celebrities and stalked by griefparrazies. I have never seen people enjoying their husband’s death so much.” Because they dare to speak out?"

That was beautiful. The haters won't get just how much. Thank you for posting it.
 
You're welcome. Even if trump reads the letter, though, the irony will be lost on him.

Sadly, he'll never see it. 1) He has no interest in opposing POVs, 2) reading is too hard if it's more than the number of characters in a typical Tweet, 3) Trumpelthinskin don't do criticism -- or growth, or maturity, or adulthood, or presidenting.
 
It's too bad that the widow and the aunt who raised her husband allowed that crazed congress creature to talk her into publicizing the call...twisting a heartfelt message and then using it as an opportunity to promote the political hate. Over and over. The tragic loss of her husband is forever tainted. What a shame.
May he finally rest in peace.
