no kidding...so many are creeped out by this charlatan

What is blatantly obvious is that Saul Alinsky's rules number five, six, eight and twelve are now in play.


There is a story here that is not yet known to the public, and as we all know, anything involving Hillary has an element of sleaze associated with it.

If wrong for them, it is wrong for trump to use it, too. duhhhh.


Oh, wait... here is a definition of 'sacrifice' that applies to the family, as it gets to the heart of their, and their son's, sacrifice. But, still, what did trump give up that he wanted to keep in order to help someone? sacrifice

Huh? What?

What the hell are you talking about? MR. Khans son was a man, not an object, or a piece of property. He cannot "Give away" his son like he was a library book or a beloved pet that had to be put down. Is Mr Khan saying that his son enlisted in the military against his wishes, and had no choice but to "give him up" because his son signed the enlistment papers? Is that what you are implying?

Never a good thing when the VFW and Gold Star families ask for an apology from a candidate.


You sure this guy wants to be elected.

Quote:
(CNN)The Veterans of Foreign Wars blasted Donald Trump Monday and a group of Gold Star families of fallen service members demanded he apologize for comments about the parents of a slain Muslim U.S. solider.
"Election year or not, the VFW will not tolerate anyone berating a Gold Star family member for exercising his or her right of speech or expression," said Brian Duffy, who was elected July 27 to lead the nation's oldest and largest major war veterans organization.

That is exactly WRONG!!!!

WORDS are what gets things done in this democracy. Do you really think trump as president can just make declarations to make things happen? Are you like him; have no understanding of our three branches of government?

WORDS, when used effectively, are what persuade people to do what you want done.

trump seems to think he's running for King, not president. He's pretty much an idiot. If elected () he will accomplish exactly nothing if he continues to alienate half (or more) of Congress. Maybe that's a good thing, actually.

I'm guessing you voted for Obama since that is EXACTLY the backwards thinking that kept that idiotic moron in office while America is circling the drain..

An open letter to Mr Kahn from a military vet
He is the only one who is supporting Trump on his attack.

I wonder if he sends a copy of the letter to all grieving parents, including the Benghazi mother, or if he is just a partisan hack.
