WASHINGTON _ Former Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski on Monday added a new wrinkle to the Republican presidential nominee's ongoing battle with the parents of late U.S. soldier Capt. Humayan Kahn, asserting that the slain soldier would still be here if Trump had been in charge a decade ago.
"If Donald Trump were the president, Captain Khan would still be alive today because we never would have entered the Iraq war in the first place," Lewandowski said during a CNN segment focused on the burgeoning feud between his former boss and Democratic National Convention speaker Khizr Khan.
Although both Trump and Lewandowski continue to place him in the "I-told-you-so" war critics, FactCheck.org has found no evidence of Trump opposing the Iraq war prior to the invasion in March 2003.
Politifact categorized Trump's claims that he opposed the war as "false."
