President Trump today explained his unbelievable lack of empathy when calling families of the fallen, saying there was very clear reasoning behind it.

“If I’m too charming, our troops in the field will get killed just so their spouse and kids get some quality time with me, Donald Trump.”

Instead, by acting like an uncaring asshole quick to pick fights with the families of the fallen, Trump says he lessens that temptation.

“That’s the risk you run when you pick a President as charismatic as I am.”

Trump then excused himself to make some more calls to let families know their relative was lucky to have died serving such an incredible Commander in Chief.

“I’m so amazing I always move them to tears!”
