First, the claim from the Democrat congresswoman who says she overheard the phonecall:
"Basically he said, ‘Well, I guess he knew what he signed up for. But I guess it still hurt.’ That’s what he said."
So not a direct quote but a paraphrase which the President has explicitly denied saying:
"Democrat Congresswoman totally fabricated what I said to the wife of a soldier who died in action (and I have proof)."

Press Secretary Sarah Sanders defended the President, saying there were several other people who heard the call, including General John Kelly:
"The president’s call, as accounted by multiple people in the room — believe that the president was completely respectful, very sympathetic, and expressed the condolences of himself and the rest of the country, and thanked the family for their service, commended them for having an American hero in their family. And I don’t know how you could take that any other way."

I've also heard that reporters are now calling Gold Star families seeking to find someone to criticize Trump but don't know if this is true.

Father of Slain Soldier Slain Blasts Controversy: ‘Not About Trump or Damn Phone Call’; ‘My Son Knew What He Signed Up For
Arnold Wright, the father of Army Staff Sgt. Dustin Wright who was killed with three other soldiers in an attack in Niger on October 4, spoke to Time Magazine on Wednesday about a condolence call he received from President Donald Trump on Tuesday and his thoughts on what his son knew when he volunteered for military service.
Wright is an Army veteran as are his wife and another son. Wright blasted the controversy over the condolence call Trump made to the Myeshia Johnson, the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson who was also killed in the Niger attack. Wright’s comments and observations are 180 degrees opposite of the highly negative experience reported by Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-FL) about Johnson’s talk with Trump.
Rep. Wilson accused Trump of saying to Myeshia Johnson, “He knew what he was signing up for, but I guess it hurts anyway.” Wilson later accused Trump of a cover-up and said the Niger attack would become “Trump’s Benghazi”.
Staff Sgt. Dustin Wright.
Arnold Wright earlier spoke to CBS News , reporting his call with Trump lasted about twenty minutes with Wright doing most of the talking, focusing on his concerns over lack of air cover for his son’s patrol. Wright said Trump was “real cordial” and he was confident Trump would look in to the lack of air cover.

But Staff Sgt. Dustin Wright was white, and Sgt. La David Johnson wasn't. So it was a racial thing, Trump was dissing the black man again!Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

Symone Sanders, former national press secretary for Bernie Sanders during his campaign to be the Democrat's nominee for president and currently a political commentator for CNN, posted the following

Brian Fallon Jr., Hillary Clinton's national press secretary during her 2016 failed presidential bid and also now a political commentator for CNN called Kelly "odious" in his reaction

Speaking of "odious," Keith Olbermann who was so biased even MSNBC canned him and now has a show on GQ which is called The Resistance () called Kelly a "collaborating, enabling nitwit"Last edited by rogue06; 10-19-2017, 08:13 PM.
