Trump apparently has no understanding of Constitutional government. Tonight on O’Reilly, Bill begins to read off the positive pro-veteran legislation McCain supported, and Trump starts complaining that the Veterans is badly run and “McCain is in charge” of the Veterans Administration, then repeats the same brainless statement.

Does Trump not understand the difference between the legislative and executive branches? McCain voted to give the President added authority to fire the crooks at the VA. McCain has no authority to execute the law, that’s on Obama. McCain can’t force Obama to do his job. Why doesn’t Trump go after Obama? Because to Donald Trump, settling personal scores is more important than doing what’s right for the veterans and what’s right for the country?

-—and I am not a political loyalist to McCain, I never supported him in either of the primaries in 2000 nor 2008, the years he was a candidate.

I get what Trump is doing.....he's speaking to Joe Everyman. Joe Everyman has no idea about such things as federal agencies and the relationship of these to our government structure. They'll nod off in 10 seconds. But keep pounding on the theme that government is corrupt and those in power made it that way and well...THAT's a meme that's out there already. And about Obama...he doesn't NEED to go after him. He's not running against him. Every Republican that's rooting for trump already knows the score on Obama and those who voted for Obama trump doesn't want to alienate by bashing him...yet.
