The President also talked about the strong economy during the closed-press event, a person inside the room said.

(62,531 posts)the big tell with the orange asshole is his problem with overdoing a lie to cover something up.
this is just more of that.
taking a moment to make a grossly inappropriate comment during what was supposed to be an event honoring Gold Star families, is a classic example of the tRump "tell".
He's full of shit.
what needs to be noted now is when she will make her next reappearance.
this time she was paid off to show up, probably won't be so easy next time.
