The grieving parents of a British teenager who was killed in a car crash involving a U.S. diplomat’s wife said President Trump “doesn’t understand” how much the accident had “broken” their family. The president surprised them by saying the woman involved in the crash, Anne Sacoolas, was willing to meet with them in front of the White House press corps. The Dunn family has insisted that they will meet with Sacoolas only in the U.K. as they push for her to return to Britain and face the legal system. I presume that if there was a psychiatrist there, he would have said, ‘No way,’ ” the spokesman, Radd Seiger, said in the interview. The family said that Trump was “stating the obvious” and that his comments showed he didn’t understand how much the accident had hurt their family.
