I should have read deeper into the thread.

BOS2IAD and others made the same point I did.

Shame on him.

And the ironic thing: this a$$wipe will start an unnecessary war in which thousands of the sons and daughters of his supporters will come home in flag-draped caskets. Will those voters regret their votes then??
This comment has absolutely no value. Not only do you not say what McCain and Trump are fighting about, but you basically say they aren't allowed to discuss. I respect McCain though disagree with him often, and I find Trump to be entirely un-statesman like, but he is the president for better or worse. Him lacking military experience does not mean they can't discuss or be critical. I'm sure Trump just did what he always does, which is tweet some BS so his followers can blow their loads, but to say McCain is above criticism because of his military service is beyond ridiculous, and I'd like to believe someone as principled as McCain would agree with me on that.

For the person who left me a rep message, you can come here calling me a liar.

Don't be a coward.

It is a reference to Marco Rubio...trying to get back into the race....saying at one of the debates that Trump has 'small hands'. Trump dismissed him as 'Little Marco' (rather humorously, IMO), but then Trump lied and said no one in the past had ever criticized his hands. This is a lie because Trump is party to a 30 year feud with Graydon Carter (the editor of Vanity Fair, and founder of Spy magazine) who, in the 80s, referred to Trump as a 'short fingered vulgarian'. Given many of the parallels in their lives, IMO, Carter is jealous of Trump. Given that, Carter was smart enough to know that the 'short fingered vulgarian' comment would have a lasting effect on Trump....getting under his skin because of his insecurities. Many years after the comment, Trump was still sending Carter pictures of himself with his hands circled to supposedly prove that his fingers aren't short.

I didn't vote for Trump, but I don't share your vitriol toward him either. No matter where one's opinion of Trump falls, your post above is pretty da**ed funny +1.

well what difference does it make?

You think a POW who refused to leave his fellow POW behind would be afraid of turning 40? give me a break.

Funny you just posted this earlier

I doubt a man who endured such ugly things as a POW would be bothered by a woman who had a scar or two.

Talking Trump, Who Never Served in Military, Goes After McCain

Look, everybody...

The plain and simple fact is this:

When it comes to anything military, tRump isn't qualified to sniff McCain's jockstrap.

Chickenhawks do cluck a lot, though.

That's what you said about Bush.
When Obama was president.
