In response to a claim by a Florida congresswoman this
week claiming that President Donald Trump is disrespectful to the loved ones of
fallen American soldiers, an African-American Gold Star widow released a video
of a phone conversation she had with the President in April about the death of
her husband who was killed in Afghanistan.
The video, obtained by The Washington Post,
shows President Trump being respectful and kind to the widow of Army Staff Sgt.
Mark R. De Alencar.
“I am so sorry to hear about the whole situation.”
President Trump said. “What a horrible thing, except that he’s an unbelievable
hero.”
“Thank you. I really, really appreciate it,” Natasha De
Alencar said. “I really do, sir.”
Trump warmly welcomed her to the White House if she ever
visited Washington D.C., saying that he considers her family.
“If you’re around Washington, you come over and see me in
the Oval Office,” Trump continued. “You just come over and see me because you
are just the kind of family … this is what we want.”
“Say hello to your children, and tell them your father,
he was a great hero that I respected,” Trump said. “Just tell them I said your
father was a great hero.”
The video comes a day after White House Chief of Staff
John Kelly gave an emotional speech during the White House press briefing on
how disgusting it was that the media would intentionally distort the words of the
President to attack him over the death of a fallen American hero.
