I suspect it wasn't really important to him. His original initial statements to minimize what he may or may not have been aware of and hour after the attack were right. Not speaking or tweeting much until the next morning, right on. First statement of 11 being sent for evaluation, OK. After that it became bullsh%t. If he cared, he would have known everybody else was going to care, got out ahead of information before it came out in the news, from people mostly in foreign countries. Continuing the charade in silence or minimizing known cases classified as Traumatic Brain Injury is just another shameless Trump lie. If he were half a man he would stand and deliver apology for his senseless remarks. Those guys went there for all of us. They are not asking for or expecting any apologies. Their injuries in that one attack were because of action HE personally took (that I happen to support) and as commander and issuer of the orders to the chain of command, he is responsible for. To minimize known injury, is disrespect to those under his command, serving in harms way at his command. The Veterans of Foreign Wars organization is correct.I suspect he simply repeated what the commanders in the field told him.
He gave out the information he had. The situation was and continues to be fluid.
