Trump Denies Making Insensitive Remark To Widow Of Slain Soldier

RIGHT NOW AT 5:00.
DIDN'T SAY WHAT THAT
CONGRESSWOMAN SAID.
AND WHAT WAS SAID TO THE
WIDOW OF A LOCAL SOLDIER KILLED
IN ACTION.
I HEARD HIM SAY WELL, HE
KNEW WHAT HE WAS SIGNING UP
FOR.
BUT IT STILL HURTS.
AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
TONIGHT A TIME OF MOURNING
TURNED INTO A CONTROVERSY OVER
A CONDOLENCE CALL.
CONGRESSWOMAN WILSON AND
PRESIDENT TRUMP HAVE BEEN GOING
BACK AND FORTH ALL DAY LONG
TODAY.
OVER WHAT WAS SAID TO THE WIDOW
OF SERGEANT JOHNSON.
THE BODY OF SERGEANT LADAVID
JOHNSON REMAINS HERE PREPEARING
FOR HIS SERVICE ON FRIDAY.
BUT THE STORM IS STILL BREWING
WHEN HE WAS BROUGHT BACK TO
MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT.
IT WAS A HEARTBREAKING SCENE.
THE WIDOW OF SERGEANT
LADAVIDSON COLLAPSING ON HIS
FLAG DRAPED CASKET AS HE WAS
RETURNED HOME TUESDAY.
JOHNSON WAS KILLED IN AN ISIS
AMBUSH IN NIGER.
BUT IT'S WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE
THIS SOMBER MOMENT THAT IS
GETTING UNWAIVERRING ATTENTION.
PRESIDENT TRUMP REACHED OUT TO
THE SERGEANT'S FAMILY ON THE
WAY TO THE AIRPORT.
IN THE CAR, CONGRESSWOMAN FRED
ROADWAY COO WILSON WHO HAS
KNOWN THE FAMILY FOR YEARS.
SHE REPEATED AGAIN WHAT SHE
SAYS SHE HEARD THE PRESIDENT
SAY.
I HEARD HIM SAY, HE KNEW
WHAT HE WAS SIGNING UP FOR BUT
IT STILL HURTS.
I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
Reporter: THE PRESIDENT
DENIES IT.
I HAD A VERY NICE
CONVERSATION WITH THE WOMAN
WITH THE WIFE WHO SOUNDED LIKE
A LOVELY WOMAN.
DID NOT SAY WHAT THE
CONGRESSWOMAN SAID.
AND MOST PEOPLE AREN'T TOO
SURPRISED TO HEAR THAT.
Reporter: HE ALSO TWEETED
DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMAN TOTALLY
FAB RATED WHAT I SAID TO THE
WIFE OF A SOLDIER WHO DIED IN
ACTION.
AND I HAVE PROOF.
THE PROOF CAME FROM THE
PRESIDENT'S SPOKE WOMAN.
GENERAL KELLY WAS PRESENT
FOR THE CALL AND THOUGHT IT WAS
COMPLETELY APPROPRIATE.
HE THOUGHT THE CALL WAS
RESPECTFUL AND HE THOUGHT THAT
THE PRESIDENT DID THE BEST JOB
HE COULD UNDER THOSE
CIRCUMSTANCES TO OFFER
CONDOLENCES ON BEHALF OF THE
COUNTRY.
I'M TELLING YOU I'M IN THE
CAR WITH SEVEN PEOPLE AND HE'S
SAYING HE HAS PROOF?
WHAT IS HE GOING TO DO?
TAKE THESE SEVEN PEOPLE TO
JAIL?
Reporter: WHILE WE SPOKE
WITH THE CONGRESSWOMAN, SHE GOT
A CALL FROM CIVIL RIGHTS
ACTIVIST AND TV RADIO HOST AL
SHARPTON AND SHE LASHED OUT AT
MR. TRUMP.
HE HAS NO RULES OR
REGULATION.
HE FEELS HE CAN SAY ANYTHING OR
DO ANYTHING AND NO ONE HAS EVER
TAUGHT HIM HOW TO BE THE
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
Reporter: NEITHER SIDE, AS
YOU CAN SEE, IS BACKING DOWN.
I ASKED CONGRESSWOMAN WILSON IF
THE CONVERSATION WAS RECORDED,
SHE SAID NO.
THE PRESIDENT WAS ON
SPEAKERPHONE.
