We didn't have New York Stock Exchange Suffers Huge Drop on "Black Monday" or see Pan Am Flight 103 exploded due to terrorist's bomb? This was just the tip of the iceberg. If you remember the '70s and '80s as all roses and ice cream you must have been ten.
there have been more killings in the last few weeks than all the stuff you listed times 10.

also, the 'feeling' is that its not safe, you gotta look over your shoulder all the time, there's a homeless beggar on every street median, this wasn't the case in the 70s and 80s, not that homeless beggars are criminals, but it just goes to show how the country has gone downhill over the years, it hasn't improved.

Trump said he always wanted the purple heart. I don't think he realizes how stupid a statement that is. He wants to get wounded in combat? It doesn't count if you shoot yourself in the foot...over and over and over and over again though.

Trump had it all right and has handled this for what it is.
Because she's NOT using him? Trump's the one who has to parade around the people he is using....

We all have our standards as to what constitutes public service (Pssst What Khan's been doing since he got here ain't it).

What he should do is take his contrived, orchestrated diatribes, and shove 'em.

Shame on us.
You're right. Trump should shut the **** up about it and stop being such a whiny, little bit ch.

Maybe he was trying for the purple heart in the "personal vietnam" he described to howard stern.

Trump's attack on Khan's parents and in particular the mother has to be on of the most vile, petty and downright mean spirited thing I have seen in American politics.

I hear he's planning to kick orphans next week, so stay tuned.

I bet they don't. Because not only is the Clintons' despicable treatment of the military while they haunted the WH documented in every book written about those 8 years, but Khan is the one who attacked Trump.

And most vets know it.

No, it's more than "silly verbal insults". Thoughts matter. Words express thoughts. Trumps words are indicative of a very imbalanced and mean spirited, nasty, small minded / petty, vindictive, hateful man.

And aren't you the one who posted that ridiculous thread about Bush senior indicating (he wasn't) that he wanted to slash trumps throat?
