If Trump Doesn't turn this into a campaign ad. It will be the greatest missed opportunity of all time.
The Father of Worst mass shooting terrorist in US History is an emphatic Hillary supporter.
I think Trump should exploit this but he personally himself should say nothing because it’s a booby trap.
they’re trying to continue this idea of his insensitivity to parents who have lost kids.
exactly like the Khan artists.
One problem: The son is guilty, not the father.
It will likely backfire.
“One problem: The son is guilty, not the father.”
I agree——this is a VERY bad idea.
.
One of the PACs could do it.
National Review agrees:
The obvious rejoinder: “She says she’ll keep the pro-Taliban folks who are close to terrorists out of our country… but she can’t even keep them out of her own rallies. Maybe she should try building a wall.” Donald Trump might be the luckiest son-of-a-gun to ever run for president. If he can’t make some noise over this and make up five points quick, he should just close up shop.”
It will be the greatest missed opportunity of all time.

Where is Captain Hyperbole when we need him?
“It will likely backfire.”

Yup. I would let it play in the media and then just make a passing note of how Hillary can’t even vet who sits in her VIP seats.
He’s not just the father he’s a radical Taliban with Democrat connections.
He should be in custody.
It’s not just failing to vet who sites there.
The family is free for political reasons. The man is not even a citizen.
They are all missing the point. This man and the wife were RESPONSIBLE for the mass murder. Don’t people see what the Clintons are doing. All Muslims are to be protected.
Does this mean something similar to Swift Boating in 2004 could be done? If my memory serves me properly, a group of veterans who served alongside John Kerry produced the ads and documentary concerning that candidate’s service in Vietnam and how he behaved afterward concerning that. And that Bush was not directly involved with it, and as I recall, did not make direct or immediate comments regarding the “Swift Boating”. The points expressed here make me think of something like this.
Except the father is a Taliban supporter, is openly anti-homosexual, and supports Hitlery’s gun-grabbing stance. He has enough of his own issues, accompanied by his lovely terrorist son, to be spotlighted.
Do you think if a father of a mass shooter showed up in support of Trump, Hillary wouldn’t turn that into an ad?
2nd amendment setup.
The shooters wife is still missing. The FBI can’t or won’t find her. I think they should use it. They could run the tape and ask the question who is this man Hillary?
The only reason the father of the shooter was there was to bait Trump, its best that Trump say nothing.(If that is at all possible.) Before Mateen was there, it was all thought out before hand, that you can bet on it.
This guy is a taliban supporter whose son killed 49 people and he is an emphatic Hillary supporter. It doesn't really get better than this.
Time to say Hillary is the choice of the father of the biggest mass murderer shooter in American history.
A vote for Hillary is a vote for terrorism.
“Except the father is a Taliban supporter, is openly anti-homosexual, and supports Hitlery’s gun-grabbing stance. “
—
Yes,but the OP was referencing the action of his son.That’s what I think is a bad idea.
.
Similar with David Duke.
Let the friendly press (all 3 of them) do it. Do it through surrogates, “Does Hillary disavow this endorsement? Does she repudiatate this man?”
Play the game they did with Trump on David Duke.
Then ask, “Why was he visiting the State Department? These are our allies in the area?”
