That's not confirmed. Do some more research.

They're citing somebody who has the same name ...some lawyer in New York.
The father of Captain Humayun Khan is not a lawyer but a legal consultant in the D.C. area.

First Off I am Trump supporter and I am willing to engage in the meaningless thread. Most of the items we are taking about was taken out of context. However Mt. Trump should taken more care in presenting his view.


As for the Parent , Mr. Hassan when you throw comments out these days you better back it up. Mr. Hassan made his speech into apolitical speech and Mr. Trump had every right to make a counter comment.
Mr.. Hassan is a Lawyer whom represents immigrants and Immigrant rights, from the Middle East and he does have a conflict of interest, not just a grieving parent.


However being from a Military Family dating back to the Spanish American War, this is sensitive subject and the DNC once more has politsized this in a negative light.

Yes.

Trump is a draft dodger.

No one could call him a patriotic American.

Good Grief! This entire thread is about a letter from a vet. I guess simple comprehension is harder than I thought.

Yep. Now the new polls are coming out showing Hillary doing well. Polls bother him greatly too.

The Democrats know how to bait and set him off but it's not necessary at this moment. Right now they just sit back and allow him to self destruct because he's in a tizzy. Maybe poke him slightly here and there to allow him to continue to spin out of control.

As soon as he settles down they'll trigger him again. It's very easy- just insult him and he goes after the person or entity that made the attack. He's not able to focus on the election right now because he's lashing out at everyone. He's in major defense mode right now - not a good place to be. And nobody is taking sides with him. He's probably lashing out at his kids right now because they aren't speaking out today.

Yes, that would appear to be very much the case.

I've been reading on this site for quite a few years from those railing against the "military industrial complex", questioning whether military members are actually worthy of respect or whether they should just be grateful for having a paycheck, and whether or not they are murderers of the innocent. I find it amusing that suddenly Trump is an unpatriotic American because he never served.

Having said that, Trump is a big boy who is playing in the big leagues of politics and a minion like me feels no compulsion to defend a billionaire who is running for the highest office in the land. Sink or swim Donald. Figure it out or don't. The country is watching you.

Just because you can do something does not always mean you should.




What "conflict of interest" would that be???

Baldasaro is the same nutjob that said Hillary should be "put on the firing line and shot" a couple of weeks ago, so that tells you all need to know about him and his opinions.


Another one of the "best people" Trump hires.
