I wonder why Trump's kids haven't been out there trying to clean up after his dad's latest gaff. The families of Gold Star parents are not people to mess with and anyone with any decency knows that.
That's the problem. Trump doesn't know anything and is dumb. He thinks he can say whatever he wants and people will eat it up. Well to a lower demographic it's true, but with those with half a brain, they could handle Trump's situations and responses better.
Whether it was a fair question or not, it's a powerful question. And it's been very effective. Maybe Trump should stop his circus act of attacking and insulting people.
Trump should. But in my opinion, that is not a fair question. we can agree to disagree on that one. I understand he is in a lot of pain and a lot of anger. Very understandable.
But "what have you sacrificed? " I just won't go there.

Unfortunately, it's not a circus ACT. It's a basic part of his personality to insult and attack people and at his age that is not going to change. It really doesn't matter whether or not it was a fair question doesn't matter. Trump didn't' need to take the bait if that's what some are calling it.
You could say "My father, NAME, had dreams of being a.... " "But he put those dreams aside the day he sacrificed his life to save his fellow soldiers., what have you sacrificed"
He said: "You [insert candidate] have sacrificed nothing and no one"

If people cared what McCain had to say, he would have been POTUS.
I disagree. If McCain had not picked Sarah Palin as his running mate he would have been POTUS.
Trump opened his big mouth to insert his foot and now it's stuck in there. Regardless of what McCain said in the last line quoted by the OP, Trump DOES represent the Republican Party. They elevated him to their candidate, he is their standard bearing and spear carrier. The old party is dead.
Trump represents Trump. He doesn't care about the Republican party and has said so.
The old party is dead? Great. Time to dig that hole and cover it up.
The democrats are scared to death that the republican party of old is dead. They had a convenient devil and they were of the same ilk, both did nothing for the country.
The democrats would love and pray that the republican party regains its power. That is why the media gives any establishment republican air time and quote them over and over again and give them a parade.
Too bad. The democrats now have to deal with Trump. More important, they have to deal with what Trump started. You see, it isn't Trump the democrats need to worry about, it is what Trump started that will end their cycle of fear, division and unrestricted gambling and experimentation with the country.
Even if Trump were to lose the general election, what he started just goes on. The republican establishment can't ever go back to what it was. Sorry democrats, your nice and cozy backroom dealings are over.

Not sure how you sacrifice a person...
Every military family who has lost someone in a war knows what 'sacrifice a person' means.
