Trump Campaign Co-Chair: Obama "Leaves People On The Battlefield To Die"

"We know that for a fact."

Donald Trump's national campaign co-chairman Sam Clovis leveled harsh criticism of President Obama Thursday, charging Obama "leaves people on the battlefield to die."

Clovis told radio host Dom Giordano that Obama is "perhaps the worst president in American history" and has left the United States "almost defenseless around the world." Obama "leaves people on the battlefield to die. We know that for a fact," Clovis claimed.
