[QUOTE]President Donald Trump paused to honor the widow of William "Ryan" Owens, a Navy SEAL who became the first military casualty of the Trump administration, during his address to Congress on Tuesday night.
"We are blessed to be joined tonight by Carryn Owens, the widow of a U.S. Navy Special Operator, Senior Chief William "Ryan" Owens," Trump said. "Ryan died as he lived: a warrior, and a hero –- battling against terrorism and securing our nation."
Owens broke down in tears during the touching tribute, while the entire room gave her an extended standing ovation.
Some sources, however, are claiming that some notable Democrats refused to stand and honor the fallen soldier's widow: U.S. Representatives [B]Debbie Wasserman Schultz[/B] of Florida and Keith Ellison of Minnesota, and Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi.[/QUOTE]
Uhhh, it might not be fake news.

God dammit, the title of the article though.
Trump having the widow there was an absolutely cheap and pathetic appeal to emotion.
the right is really grasping for anything they can to try and smear the left arent they what a nonissue lol
Donald Trump got him killed in the first place with his lax order, I'd say that's way worse.

But he's got his widow there. So that means he cares.
Did you know he's a businessman, too? :)
