“He’s not a war hero,” Trump said. Sarcastically, Trump quipped, “He’s a war hero because he was captured.” Then, he added, “I like people that weren’t captured.”

Then he attacked McCain for his grades. The video is below.

Sure. Not once did he call him a loser. That is nonsense that you made up.

Did you watch the video? He said didn't like McCain after he lost because he didn't like losers. Then he goes after McCain for his status as a war hero even though he got captured. I've posted the video, copied quotes and now practically transcribed it for you.

I will say this about McCain. He allowed the party to force dim-witted Palin on him.

Than again, #DirtyDonald is already like a male version of her.

You can always find a few veterans to say pretty much anything.

John Kerry is a veteran.

Ask his swift boat mates what they think of him...

Oh, yeah.

Veterans are getting great care.

They talk about that all the time in the news.

Why? Just because some old corrupt politicians wanted them to?

Was this country attacked? NO.

That's fine, and I admire their patriotism.

But there are others who recognized that the Vietnam War was a fraud, just like Korea, and just like all of our other wars ever since.

We go around the world, kill people for no good reason, get nothing out of it, and then walk away and the enemy wins or it's a stalemate.

It's not our soldiers' fault. They are the best, and win every battle.

It's our politicians' fault, and after repeated fiascoes, it is time to wake up and smell the coffee.

They couldn't care less about you, our troops, or Americans in general.

Democrats and Republicans -- they are rotten to the core.

That's why we need a change. That's why we need Trump!

Getting captured doesn't make you a hero.

McCain and Kerry threw POW/MIA families under the bus.

Actually, that would be Hillary. According to her, she applied to the Marines, NASA, dodged sniper fire...the lies and just plain fantasy never ends with that old hag.


I once dreamed of marrying a prince. I'd fit right in with Hillary's political bent.

Before jumping in on a discussion educate yourself. We're posting about Tricare Prime for Life for retirees. Before that, they had to pay for their own insurance or get space available care which could be thousands every month. You're talking about VA disability care, a totally different topic. If you served any amount of time in the military, you'd know the difference.

So why didn't Billy-Boy Clinton take care of the disabled vets?

Hmm?

You would think taking that care of them would be his FIRST priority!

No?

The current crisis with VA has occurred after GWB got us involved in Afghanistan and Iraq and has overwhelmed VA care. This post dates Clinton by a couple of decades. But you want to blame him anyway.

So Clinton thought we would never fight another war?

It's all Bush's fault?

Why did the problem only come to light six years into the Obama Administration?
