    The Washington Post reported Wednesday that Trump offered the money during a telephone conversation with the father of Dillon Baldrige a few weeks after the 22-year-old was killed in Afghanistan on June 10. The Post reported that White House officials declined to discuss the matter when contacted Wednesday morning.

    White House spokeswoman Lindsay Walters said later Wednesday that the check has been sent. She did not say when.

    Walters also criticized the news media and accused reporters of using a “generous and sincere” gesture made privately by Trump to advance what she describes as a “biased agenda.” Walters called it “disgusting.”

    How much money did Clinton give Vince Foster’s family after they had him killed?

    The check is in the mail.

    Ask any small business owner how often they hear that from customers with delinquent accounts. When you finally get the owner to take your call he tells you oh, he just mailed it ten minutes ago and now he bought another two days float of your money.

    So so so Trump.
