Trump: As I watch this soldier's casket being lowered, I can't help but notice his wife is now single

The following is a transcript of President Donald Trump's remarks during a recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery during a military funeral.

Excuse me Ma'am, but are you the wife of the fallen? On behalf of a grateful nation I would like to present you with this folded flag as a token of appreciation for your late husband's service. I'm know this isn't easy, and there is no way to replace your loss.

Also, just out of curiosity, you're single now, right?

Wait, wait, that came out all wrong. What I mean is, you have to be strong for yourself and your children, and I know that won't be easy without a man around. Or woman, I guess... I really don't know your personal preferences, although that would be kinda hot.
