Poor Handling
Trump was told he should look at how former Presidents Obama and Bush treated those who died for their Country.
Many families of slain soldiers said they never heard from the President.
Whitney Hunter said “I was told I would receive a call and I never did.” Her husband Sgt. Jonathon Hunter was killed in Afghanistan in August.
Former CIA Director John Brennan was unhappy with how Trump handled the issue.
“Mr. Trump has his own ways of dealing with things that I see as inconsistent with what some of his predecessors have done and how they’ve treated it,” he said.
Brennan made reference to Trump’s claim about former President Obama and Bush. He said “I think that one can highlight what they’re doing and the importance of what they’re doing without dragging down either predecessors or previous things.”
He also said “the solemnity with which they treated those situations and interacted with families and loved ones and just how important that responsibility was. I was very impressed that all of them acted so Presidential in those cases.”
