(55,019 posts)4. headline is misleading
not a laughing matter but the "joke" was about "wouldn't want to be a terrorist right now" (due presumably to our efforts against them). it was NOT joking about our troops getting killed.
headline should just say joking or laughing about terrorists.

It's deliberate to give the impression Trump was joking about dead U.S. soldiers.
