It's quite easy for most sentient beings to see that the Gold Star families without the presence of an agenda driven, empty barrel politico were not offended, masterdickmuncher. Thus, the balance of the evidence reveals that it is the agenda driven, empty barrel politico who is the real source of offense, masterdickmuncher.

You're like the monkey who grabs a munchie in the jar and then can't remove his fist from the narrow necked jar. Unwilling to let go of the food he will never get to eat, he stands there until the hunter returns and bashes his head in.
And you have been bashed many, many, many times.
National Review pointed out what a prick trump was. And as usual,
I provide links, you provide humor by your sputtering.
I can see you in the middle of a frustration attack like that shown in "The Accountant".
Once again you are called out and you show up at school in your underwear to give your speech, "Why Hitler was misunderstood".
What a douche-bag.

For the last two years, a hearty debate has taken center stage among conservatives: Does character matter? That debate was prompted, of course, by the rise of Donald Trump; the debate has not abated. This week, the debate began anew thanks to President Trump’s decision to go mano-a-mano with a Gold Star widow who questioned his sincerity in a condolence call. Trump responded to her complaints by denying her account of the event. Does this sort of thing matter? In one sense, it certainly doesn’t: Trump may not be politically damaged by this sort of behavior. After all, political damage results from hopes disappointed, and few Americans hoped that Trump was above this sort of thing — at least, not after he attacked John McCain’s war heroism in 2015 (“I like people that weren’t captured”) and after he attacked a Gold Star family that was politicking at the Democratic National Convention in 2016 (“If you look at his wife, she was standing there, she had nothing to say . . . Maybe she wasn’t allowed to have anything to say, you tell me”). So we shouldn’t be surprised at Trump’s latest salvo against a Gold Star wife who seems to have interpreted his words in the worst possible light.
But in another sense, Trump’s politicization of sacred space in our culture is a serious problem. It’s serious because no culture can exist without certain cultural capital — trust — and that trust exists only when there are certain spaces in which we can assume agreement without having to ask. Thomas Sowell writes that cohesive groups rich in cultural capital have certain advantages in business and life: “Attitudes exist in societies that can be beneficial or harmful.” Like-minded groups can easily minimize transaction costs, thereby lowering cost in economic terms; in social terms, these groups are less likely to facilitate conflict between individuals. When we share cultural totems and taboos, we are all better off.

President Trump followed up White House chief of staff John Kelly’s defense of his phone call to a Gold Star widow by once again attacking the Florida lawmaker who listened in on the conversation — branding her “wacky.”
Trump again denied Democratic Rep. Frederica S. Wilson’s claim that he told Myeshia Johnson that her husband, Sgt. La David Johnson, knew “what he signed up for,”
even though Kelly seemed to corroborate her account.
“The Fake News is going crazy with wacky Congresswoman Wilsons (D), who was SECRETLY on a very personal call, and gave a total lie on content!” Trump tweeted late Thursday.Your lying idol
Wilson, a longtime friend of the grieving family, was in the car with Johnson when the president called to offer his condolences.
On Tuesday, Wilson said Trump told Mrs. Johnson that the slain soldier “knew what he signed up for … but when it happens, it hurts anyway.”
“When she got off the phone, she said, ‘He didn’t even know his name. He kept calling him ‘your guy,’” Wilson said of Johnson. “He was calling the fallen soldier ‘your guy.’ And he never said his name because he did not know his name.”
Trump blasted Wilson on Wednesday,
saying she “totally fabricated” the comments and that he had “proof” to the contrary. He has not yet produced any such evidence.
The Florida congresswoman, who called Trump a “liar,” said the conversation had been put on speakerphone and overheard by several witnesses.
Cowanda Jones-Johnson, the sergeant’s mother, said she was present during the call and that she stood by Wilson’s description.
During his impassioned press briefing Thursday, Kelly — whose Marine son was killed in Afghanistan seven years ago — said he was “stunned” by Wilson’s actions.
“It stuns me that a member of Congress would have listened in on that conversation.
Fake outrage. The soldier's mother had put the call on speakerphoneAbsolutely stuns me. I would have thought that was sacred,” he said.
The retired Marine general also called Wilson an “empty barrel” who “makes noise” —
but he did not deny her account of the phone call, as the president had this week.
