Trump did NOT bring up the issue if McCain is a war hero. You have fallen for the out of context ONE statement repeated ad nauseum by media:

Here is the verbatim conversation between Luntz & Trump:

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.”

The statement by Trump in red letters is never mentioned my media.

Being captured does not make one a hero, nor does it make them a coward. I don’t care who says it, but to attack someone for stating such an obvious truth appears to be more out of desperation than principle. Walker would make up far more ground if he attacked liberals and the consequences of liberals in government.

Trump’s liberal side and the cult worshippers he attracts will be exposed soon enough but he is doing a great service exposing wishy-washy Republicans who fall prey to the media traps. The GOPe types will not learn and will lose, but hopefully conservatives will study Trumps tactics, learn without abandoning principles and win.

The Link below has Trump’s actual statement about McAinal, not bs from the Compost. I saw that interview on Fox this morning, and the link below is correct:

Whatever McCain was, that was a long time ago. Did he serve his country honorabl, yes. Thank you. Done.

He’s since become the left’s useful tool. So whatever Trump says about him... ehh. Whatever. So what.

Whatever Trump says now, the libtards are in full search and destroy mode, so it doesn’t matter.

Glad he’s getting under their skin. They’re watching their little insurgency start to fall apart.

RE:”Whatever McCain was, that was a long time ago. Did he serve his country honorabl, yes. Thank you. Done.”

I am going to just lurk on this cat-fight.

I wonder if McCain will ask Palin to campaign for him in next year's primary as she did six years ago (~ 2010) .

Palin:"Everybody here, supporting John McCain, we are all part of that Tea Party movement,” Palin said. “I think he's gonna win this one,” she said. “Before there were protests on Main Street and marches on Capitol Hill, there was the maverick of the Senate, fighting for us"
Palin hits the trail for McCain (By the CNN Wire Staff, March 30, 2010)

The point is, regarding McCain, it’s history. Done. Fini. Over. Kaputt.

It’s distraction, trying to catch Trump in “gotcha” moments, to distract from the real issues going on.

He’s resonating with people on both sides of the aisle, and that infuriates the Uniparty. So they must erase him.

“Palin:”Everybody here, supporting John McCain, we are all part of that Tea Party movement,” Palin said. “

In Phoenix: “ McCain is the REAL conservative! “

Another event in Phoenix: “McCain IS the Tea Party ! “

No, I will never forget.
