Current Events > Trump lies about Obama not calling families of the soldiers

(+) Yeah! (+)

President Trump on Monday falsely suggested he is one of few commanders-in-chief to call the families of fallen U.S. soldiers, and wrongly singled out his predecessor Barack Obama as a leader who never did so.

The traditional way, if you look at President Obama and other Presidents, most of them didnt make calls, Trump said during a White House Rose Garden press conference with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

A lot of them didnt make calls. I like to call when its appropriate, when I think Im able to do it.

Minutes later, after a reporter challenged Trumps comments, the President said he wasnt sure if his allegation about Obama was true.

I was told he didnt often and a lot of Presidents dont. They write letters ... I do a combination of both. Sometimes its a very difficult thing to do, but I do a combination of both. President Obama, I think, probably did sometimes and maybe sometimes he didnt. I dont know. Thats what I was told.

So he lied and the flip flopped right on the spot with out skipping a beat. And his supporters don't care. Tell me what is worse someone taking a knee when a song players or someone using dead soldiers as pawns to attack someone.
