When you are running for President, how you phrase something is important. The media doesn’t care that he said that Trump said McCain was a hero as an afterthought. They only care that he said that McCain was not a hero. Be careful what you say is the lesson. But Trump is saying he owns his words so he is fine with the characterization being presented in the media obviously.
They will twist what Trump says. Trump is showing more courage than all of them combined.
Frank Luntz, who was leading the Q&A session, repeatedly protested, “He’s a war hero.”
Trump responded, “He’s a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren’t captured, okay? I hate to tell you.” Trump re-iterated, “He’s a war hero because he was capture, okay? You can have — and I believe — perhaps he’s a war hero, but right now, he said some very bad things about a lot of people. So, what I said is, John McCain, I disagree with him, that these people aren’t crazy.”
Sorry Naps,,what you are advocating for sounds a lot like PC-speak.
The bigger message carries. It’s the craven hyenas that want to dissect word by word.
