Obama Wouldn’t Even Pick Up Phone, But See What Trump Did For Jailed Marine

Sean Brown

Many of us remember the 216 day struggle that the family of Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi went through as their son sat rotting in a Mexican prison while suffering from PTSD. Our own president wouldn’t even pick up the phone to help, despite the fact that Tahmooressi was wrongfully imprisoned, but there was one person who did help, and he did so very quietly – Donald Trump.

Trump’s act of kindness for Tahmooressi wasn’t widely publicized, but Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren told her audience about his charitable efforts, which lend great insight into the type of person Trump really is, since there was truly no benefit for him at the time other than to help someone in need. During Thursday night’s On the Record, Greta revealed that Trump sent Tahmooressi money after he was freed from prison to help the former sergeant jumpstart his life again.

“In all seriousness, Donald did help out Sgt. Tahmooressi. He sent him some money to help him jump start his life. Sgt. Tahmooressi rotted in a Mexican prison for 214 days. President Obama wouldn’t even pick up the phone to help,” Greta explained.

How cool is that? Such benevolence isn’t exactly a new thing for The Donald, however. As Mad World News previously reported, the real estate mogul personally arranged for the family of a sick child to use his private jumbo jet to fly their son to New York City for vital medical treatment after he was denied being able to fly by the airlines. And again, this was done while he wasn’t vying for votes.

Love him or hate him, it’s hard to deny that Trump has a big heart, and his own actions have repeatedly shown it.
