Trump finally calls widow of fallen Army soldier — only to tell her ‘he knew what he signed up for’

After making the issue of the four soldiers who died in Niger two weeks ago all about himself Donald Trump called the widow of Army Sgt. La David Johnson had this truly sympathetic statement of condolence to make. (That is sarcasm)

Donald Trump on Tuesday finally called the families of four U.S. soldiers who were killed during an ambush in Niger earlier this month, only to tell the widow of U.S. Army Sgt. La David Johnson, “he knew what he signed up for.”
“Yes, he said it,” Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Miami Gardens) told ABC. “It’s so insensitive. He should have not have said that. He shouldn’t have said it.”
Trump called Tuesday afternoon and spoke to Johnson’s widow, who’s pregnant with her third child to the deceased Army soldier. Johnson is also survived by a 2-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter.

When asked by a reporter at a press conference on Monday Donald Trump in his usual tone deaf and insensitive manner the deaths of the four Special Operations soldiers all about himself. Rather than showing any kind of empathy for the four men who died or their families.
