Fox News contributor Kimberly Guilfoyle was in shock Sunday that people would believe Rep. Frederica Wilson's account of the phone call between President Trump and Army Sgt. La David Johnson's family.
Guilfoyle blamed Wilson for the ongoing feud between the Democratic congresswoman and the White House, asserting that it was Wilson who was being "politically opportunistic."
"It is the bate being proffered up by Frederica Wilson," Guilfoyle said on Fox News' "Media Buzz."
"I think it's really shameful to be politically opportunistic in a time of grief for the family. To come out and make those statements, some things should be sacrosanct," Guilfoyle added. "Does anybody think really that the president would not show incredible compassion and kindness to someone grieving?"
Suffice it to say there are many people, perhaps thousands, that believe Trump would butcher a phone call to a family member who had lost a loved one overseas. Trump is the president who recently visited Puerto Ricans who lost their homes in a hurricane and subsequently threw paper towels at them before proclaiming relief efforts were going great.
It's not like Trump has a great track record with the military either. He suggested Sen. John McCain was not a war hero because he was captured by the enemy.
Nevertheless, Guilfoyle was committed in her defense of the president, telling Howard Kurtz that it was "sad" the way this feud has turned.
"It is sad that it is fallen this far in terms of just being disrespectful to the loss of loved ones," she said. "And I don't think she gained anything by this and John Kelly did a fantastic job representing the president."
