That's going to leave a mark.  (Two marks, actually.  The other one is subtle and will hit the viewer on a subconscious level.)

Is this about the same Senator who called his Arizona constituents "crazies"? Oh, I see, another case where that doesn't count.

That one comment of Trump's summarily managed to denigrate (and crap on) every POW there has ever been.   He stopped just short of blaming the POWs for being captured in the first place.

What an @ss.

The thing with Capt. Humayun Khan's parents bothers me much more. It would have been a thousands times much better if Trump would have just let it go or made a simple statement to the effect that he thanks Capt. Khan for his service and his condolences to his parents on their lost and walked away.

The thing about comparing his 'sacrifices' to theirs  made him look small and petty. In my estimation no business success no matter how great equals the sacrifice of one lowly dogface giving his life for this country.

Most candidates would. Not the WWE 'rassler candidate

And we're not even getting a campaign of limiting and shrinking the size of the federal government out of this deal

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

If he doesn't like McCain because he was captured, imagine how he feels about dumb schmucks like Kahn who get themselves kills.
