President Donald Trump on Wednesday reportedly sent a $25,000 gift to the father of an Army corporal killed in Afghanistan June 10 — making good on a promise made to the Gold Star family in a phone call.
Chris Baldridge, the father of 22-year-old fallen Army Cpl. Dillon Baldridge, of Zebulon, N.C., told The Washington Post he appreciated the president's call and cash offer after his son’s death.
"I could not believe he was saying that, and I wish I had it recorded because the man did say this," Baldridge told the Post. "He said, ‘No other president has ever done something like this,’ but he said, ‘I’m going to do it.'"

@ the righteous indignation on display here from the left, as if they ever gave two s about the military.
What language?
With their Russia hopes dashed they have to search for something to get their outrage fix.

White supremacist coded language

I feel terrible for this family but raising money for the children's college expenses is not entirely necessary. Because the soldier was killed in the line of duty, the children's college expenses are taken care of through the Post 9/11 GI Bill and the Frey Scholarship. I'm sure the military HR department (not sure what the Army calls it) will be advising them of their benefits.

They shouldn't need a go fund me account SGLI should take care of them unless he did not opt for any coverage the life insurance will pay a minimum of $250k. Her survivors benefits will last a lifetime as long as she does not get re-married.

Sounds like a HUGE compliment to me... Only liberals can turn this around and cry as they always do..I would say the same about any BRAVE person going into a profession to be put into harms way for the benefit of others... 'They KNEW this could happen, but they chose to do it anyway...' This is one of the biggest compliments you can pay a brave and selfless person... Only crybaby liberals and twist it to be an insult... its what liberals do... They are not happy unless they are whining about something

ANOTHER twisted and dishonest portrayal of what was said. The media's hate for the President is so evident when they grossly misrepresent what was said. The context was one of commending his courage and how courageous it was for their son to serve his country knowing how dangerous the consequences could be. To portray this differently is a LIE... and it is a lie the media seems to continue to regurgitate intentionally misleading as many as they can. What a fraud Time is for joining this dishonest nonsense.
the "i didn't vote for trump" posse is deep in here right now in full deflect mode
I believe right now they should shut their mouths their emotions are high and are upset their love one died
What white supremacist coded language did he use?
By the way, special forces do know what they’re signing up for.
