Yes, the attack on Mrs. Khan was stupid, as thew writer of the article states. But that wasn’t the stupidest part of Trump’s response. It was the staggeringly tone-deaf equivalence he made between the loss of a son in combat to his own supposed sacrifices running a business.
You don’t think that the campaign can make even worse still? Yesterday Scottie Nell Hughes, a spokeswoman, was on CNN yammering how Trump’s business “sacrifice” was somehow real because, in her words, “it cost him two marriages.”
Look, we all agree that the main thrust of his response was probably his emphasis on serious immigration control — but it is his indiscipline and his second-rate handlers that let him stumble into these quagmires again and again with imprecise language. This is the fourth day that an over-eager media is focusing on this. Unlike some I don’t think all publicity is good publicity.
