So now that it has been revealed the father is an agent of the Muslim Brotherhood, he decides to go into hiding.

...I highly doubt his motivation, however.

Your comment reminded me of a song...
...do thangs, do thangs

Tricked my ass.

Ditto. Based on his background, he was a very willing participant.

something is wrong there

even the Hillary people are trying to get them out of the spotlight

more investigation would be interesting
however this is a sideshow that needs to end at least for Trump as there are many more important issues to America

of course they do they’ve been outed as members or supporters of the Moslem brotherhood...and enemies of our country...

But going on all the TV shows you can get to or call into in 4 days is not retiring from public life or desiring “privacy”...

What a moron. He draws the attention of the country and the world upon his son and his family and now that everybody is looking at him and his muslim connections he wants out. He was played by the dnc and he thought that he could just go after Trump without anybody looking into his muslim connections. Yes, his son is a hero that was killed by his fellow muslims. But to make the outrageous claims he is now making is sheer stupidity.

Does anybody know if Khan and his wife are now US citizens? It will be interesting to find out.

Yes and no. You give the conventional Rep response. No need to fire back at your attackers. However, if it is found that there is a relationship to the MB and the Saudis, then it would be worthwhile for this to come out. No need for Trump to be the point of the spear. A surrogate of some sort with no connection with the Trump campaign, would suffice.

This was the lead story on all the Sunday morning shows, the mother has written an article published today in the NYT, and the father is on the morning shows today. Without any push back, the narrative will stand. It needs to be debunked or it will come back again and again during the campaign. You can bet it will be raised at the debates.

They expected him to be an easily intimidated, typical Republican and pee himself in sheer terror and intimidation.

They were wrong.

Now they want no part of a protracted feud with Mr Trump.

There you go.

It will be interesting to learn how and why Khan got into the US. His immigration history needs to be investigated.
