Did you listen to the interview? Did you hear his comments? What Trump said was John McCain is a war hero because he was captured (ie not for courageous actions, etc) which he should have added because the voters now days just catch partial sound bites and run with it.

My take on his comments was that he liked war heros who did something to earn that designation other than just being captured. As a military wife during the Viet Nam era I don’t recall anyone thinking McCain was a hero.

The McCain comment isn’t the real issue. Trump could apologize to McCain personally for that gaffe.

It’s the next comment he made about POW’s that will sink him. Sorry, but Politics can turn on a dime.

Trump went from Hero to Zero in three seconds.

Does anyone here have any Ideal how Trump can put this behind him? I don’t and I would have liked Trump to the Cruz’s V.P. choice.
