Two of the president's sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, waded into the controversy themselves on Friday. Eric Trump, in an interview with Fox News' "Fox & Friends," called Wilson's willingness to share the contents of the president's conversation with a Gold Star widow "just disgusting," an action that "shows the absolute worst of politics."
Donald Trump Jr. shared a video on Twitter of Wilson responding to Kelly's remarks by saying, "You mean to tell me that I have become so important that the White House is following me and my words? This is amazing. Thats amazing. That is absolutely phenomenal. Ill have to tell my kids that Im a rock star now." Along with posting the video, the president's son wrote, "So, what anyone with a brain already knew comes out on tape. Make a name for yourself at any cost. Disgusting person."

(2,396 posts)Doesn't she know she's not being deferential enough to the royal drumpft family? I'm going to hazard a guess that junior firmly believes that she should keep her place in the servant's quarters in the back of the House where she belongs. All things considered.
Incidentally, on The View the other day, Congresswoman Wilson mentioned at the time of the call, the grieving widow had just found out that she couldn't look upon her late husband's body due to its condition. She was curled up into the fetal position on the seat. Then 45 never even mentioned her husband's name of Sgt LaDavid Johnson and referred to him as "your guy" the whole time.
Way to go, missster not-my-president.
