Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleUS President Donald Trump denies a claim made by the widow of a US soldier killed in Niger that during a condolence call he forgot her husband’s name.
“I had a very respectful conversation with the widow of Sgt. La David Johnson, and spoke his name from beginning, without hesitation!” Trump writes in a tweet.
The president’s tweet comes out shortly after the widow, Myeshia Johnson, appears on ABC’s “Good Morning America” and says Trump could not remember her husband’s name.
