Trump is a coward and has always been one. Can you imagine someone like Trump being faced with the decision England had to make in WWII? Our world would be totally different. Shame on the American people for supporting this monster.

leads to ignorance and isolationism which leads to vulnerability of smaller and less fortunate populations/countries which can lead to widespread aggression, instability, conflict, and subjugation.

I don't think he said that to a grieving parent. I could have sworn he said it to Flynn or another general.

He did say some pretty calloused things to some parents, something about the death being ok because the kid knew he was going to die, or something along those lines. He asked Flynn about what to say to the parents, and Trump's addled brain just completely mangled what he was told.
