Trump reacts to dead service members by boasting he got a 'great deal' for their lives

President Donald Trump responded to the death of three U.S. service members by bragging he got a "great deal" in the war that ended their lives.

On Sunday, U.S. Central Command confirmed that three members of the armed forces had been killed in action during Operation Epic Fury against Iran.

"Several others sustained minor shrapnel injuries and concussions — and are in the process of being returned to duty. Major combat operations continue, and our response effort is ongoing," CENTCOM said in a statement. "The situation is fluid, so out of respect for the families, we will withhold additional information, including the identities of our fallen warriors, until 24 hours after next of kin have been notified."

he lacks any sense of morality, common human decency, and knows no nothing about presidential decorum

Wonder what the families of the service members are thinking right about now
