Donald Trump lashed out Wednesday at a Democratic lawmaker who said that she witnessed his phone call to the widow of a fallen soldier and that the president told the widow her husband knew what he signed up for.
Representative Frederica Wilson of Florida said on MSNBC that Trump spoke in an “almost joking” manner to the widow of Sergeant La David Johnson, one of four U.S. soldiers killed earlier this month in Niger during an ambush.
