Gold Star families are objecting to Donald Trump’s self-serving comment about the four soldiers who died in the last week in his war against Iran. “They are indeed great heroes, actually,” Trump told reporters on the tarmac at Dover Air Force Base. “The president knows his war with Iran is the most unpopular war in modern history, and he’s terrified of how that will show up at the ballot box,” she added. “Perhaps start with ending this illegal war in Iran, a war with no clear mission, end goal, or timeline, a war costing billions of dollars that still has not been approved by Congress,” she said. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, 46, told Congress this week that the war has cost $37.5 billion so far.
