Sanders added: I sat with him in the Oval Office as he had to make that awful call to let a parent know that their son had been killed in Afghanistan. At no time, other than that time, have I seen the president show his heart more, show his vulnerability more than in that time.
You said you were with the president when he called a family to notify them that their son had been killed in Afghanistan, the ABC host pointed out. And I thought it was a military protocol that it was always the military that went in person to see the family.
Are you talking about a condolence call? Stephanopoulos asked, throwing Sanders a lifeline.
Yes! she replied. Correct. A condolence call after that individual had been notified.

Why did Stephanopoulous throw her a lifeline?? It would have so delightful to try to see her squirm her way out of her lie!!

...the contradiction than offering a lifeline. He should have pursued it, however, and driven the contradiction home.
