Trump says he needs ‘generals like Hitler’, according to newspaper
“It doesn’t cost 60,000 dollars to bury a fucking Mexican!”, the then president was quoted as saying.. “Don’t pay!” Trump said, according to the magazine, to his then chief of staff, Mark Meadows.
Khawam, a lawyer for Vanessa’s family, told the magazine that she sent the bill to the White House but did not receive any money from Trump.. The costs would have been covered by the Army and donations.
After contacting the Republican’s team, The Atlantic received an email from Khawam with a statement from Mayra Guillén, the soldier’s sister. “I am beyond grateful for all the support President Donald Trump has shown our family during a difficult time,” reads an excerpt from the statement, also forwarded by spokesperson Alex Pfeiffer.
Donald Trump’s team denies the entire content of the report.
