Donald Trump to Father of Fallen Muslim Soldier: ‘I’ve Made a Lot of Sacrifices’
Time | July 30 2017 | Time

Posted on 07/30/2016 1:44:21 PM PDT by WilliamIII

Donald Trump said Saturday that he has “made a lot of sacrifices” by creating “tens of thousands of jobs”—his first response to the emotional Democratic convention speech by grieving Army father Khizr Khan, who told Trump he had “sacrificed nothing and no one.”

His SON sacrificed. He’s just a Muslim Cindy Sheehan. Did you hear his attacks on Trump? I’d that what his son fought for?

I thank his son, but I don’t need millions of Syrian refugees as a result.

Stop falling for this crap.

How many millions of his own money has Trump spent on this campaign? How much time has he spent swimming against the tide of people who thought he was a joke? I hear he wears a bullet proof vest every day. He could have just sat back and watched this country continue to disintegrate but he decided to do what for sure no one else could because he has the money, the personality, the experience, and the drive to take on the dirty rotten machine that has been sucking the USA dry.

I’m voting for him proudly and gratefully.

Khizr Khan Holds up the constitution as if he respects it. He can go to hell. His religion and the communists at the convention view our system of law as garbage.

Go back to the craphole that spawned you, Khizr, and take your donkey with the hijab.

Trump is making a big sacrifice to run for president when he could have lived a life of comfort ease and as much job challenges as he wanted

Instead he is doing this and his family reputation and business is under attack in every quarter, people he thought were friends have been treacherous bastards, and his entire family is under threat of death

Life is changed forever for all of them, and their children
Not to mention $40 million of his fortune spent for his campaign
So yes, Trump knows sacrifice

Not to mention that when he claims Hillary Clinton “honored” his son it was barf worthy

His son was in Iraq because Hillarys husband failed to take care of business when he was offered Osama Bin Laden in 1998
and Clinton did nothing to stop Khalid Sheikh Muhammad after his nephew’s plan failed to destroy the WTC in the first bombing

and Clintons AG Jamie Gorelick erected “walls” between intelligence agencies to protect Clinton from impeachment- walls that stopped intell agencies sharing information before 911

This useless tool’s son died for a cause that the entire democrat party spent all its time trying to belittle and defeat because he was serving under George Bush= so spare us sympathizing with him that Hillary is his man

so take that

Spoken like the truly butthurt Cruzer that you are.

Our give a damn is busted regarding your feelings, but you continue to emulate your messiah and take cheap shots.

Your guy lost for a REASON. Lots of them, actually.

You like him, or can’t stand him? You’ve said both in the last couple of days.

Not when its an unending pattern of abuse, and a political weapon wielded in the belief that the target cannot hit back. Trump is right to hit this damned moslem right back. The psychological blackmail of false civility must end.

I had to say this aloud a few times, because I am struck by the brilliance of your statement.

Well done.

Problem is the Marxist Media is running with EVERYTHING, sure enough this scuffle is on the MSN start page. Tens of millions use that as their default. It won’t help with the LIV vote, face it, unfortunately we will need some.

Disgusting to parade your son’s death as a political ploy at a nationally televised DNC convention. He died under Obama’s watch ... Obama who gives our military NO SUPPORT and rules of engagement that up the odds for death. But the father supports Hillary ... whatever “incoming” comes his way is his own fault and making. He’s fair game.

It pisses me off the way the liberal “media” trashed Patricia Smith, the mother of Sean Smith, and whined about how she never should have been at the convention. Then, along comes this Muzzie at the DNC convention and you’ve got Bill and Martha on FOX and all the other media toads gushing over his screech and saying crap like it was one of the best speeches ever given at a convention. Morons.

Ask Mr. Khan, “Who actually killed his son?”.

That is the most important point -- Captain Khan, like thousands of other Americans, was killed by an Islamic extremist. His death at the hands of a fellow Muslim shows the need for our government to take the kinds of steps Trump has outlined in order to protect all Americans - regardless of their religion.

Sadly, Captain Khan's father seems to think it would be better to import Islamic extremists to our nation, and do little or nothing to curb the expansion of ISIS. The policies he supports will just get more people killed, including more men like his son.

“Army father Khizr Khan, who told Trump he had “sacrificed nothing and no one.”

Khan is a reprobate bloody shirt waver. The term “bloody shirt waver” goes back to the American Civil War to identify scum who “waved the bloody shirt” for political advantage, ie, carpetbaggers.

Trump should say, “I’ve sacrificed exactly as much as the other candidate for the presidency, as well as exactly as much as the current occupant of the white house.”

Weren’t mafia southern Italians?Northerners hated them. I’ve read that the southerners weren’t considered real Italians but descendents of Arabs.

I spit on northern Italians. Unless they’re FReepers :)

They regarded us as sub human scum.

Lazy snobs, all of them (except any FReepers).

Mafia came about in Soutern Italy/Sicily to give them power against the north picking on them.

It’s just when you make a deal with the devil, the devil always gets the best part of it.
