"This report is false. President Trump holds the military in the highest regard. He's demonstrated his commitment to them at every turn: delivering on his promise to give our troops a much needed pay raise, increasing military spending, signing critical veterans reforms, and supporting military spouses. This has no basis in fact," a White House spokesperson toldFormer White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders strongly criticized the report as well.

Even former White House national security adviser John Bolton, who has become a harsh critic of the president, suggested the story was inaccurate."I didn't hear that," Mr. Bolton told."I'm not saying he didn't say them later in the day or another time, but I was there for that discussion."
