The motivation behind Trump’s behavior is obvious. The media just doesn’t want to confront it.

Despite the preponderance of evidence to the contrary, why would President Donald Trump start off this week with a continuation of his lies against Myeshia Johnson, the Gold Star widow of Sgt. La David Johnson?

Appearing on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” Johnson expressed the pain and emotions she felt when Trump called her to offer condolences after her husband was killed during a mission in Niger. She said the president’s tone was callous and that he didn’t call her husband by his name, referring to him as “your guy.”

Trump denied it all, essentially saying the Gold Star widow was a liar. “I had a very respectful conversation with the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson, and spoke his name from beginning, without hesitation!” Trump tweeted Monday morning.
