Draft-dodging coward Trump, at Walter Reed, snubbed 14 soldiers injured in his Iran war. [View all]

During his hospital visit earlier this week, Trump had the chance to mosey over and visit U.S. soldiers wounded in a war he started.

However, CBS investigative journalist Michael Kaplan reported that Trump snubbed 14 soldiers injured in the war in Iran who were staying at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

The family of one of those soldiers and a military official told Kaplan about Trump's snub. However, Trump made time to visit with other U.S. service members on Tuesday, Kaplan reported.

"The White House said Mr. Trump met with service members during his six-month checkup," Kaplan wrote, noting that White House officials "repeatedly declined to say whether the president saw soldiers injured in Trump's military campaign in Iran."
