“I knew he was the right candidate when he insulted McCain’s “heroism.” “
I’m a vet, and I have many vet friends. When Trump said McCain wasn’t a hero, I thought, this coming from someone who didn’t serve. I didn’t like McCain’s politics, but to say someone who spent five years in a North Vietnam POW camp, was tortured repeatedly, and didn’t give anything of value is disgusting. I almost didn’t vote for him because of that statement. I know vets that didn’t vote for him because of that insensitive statement. But, you think it is a plus......unbelievable !
Maybe some people think it's great that he insulted McCain's service, but the reality is that is only going to lose you votes. And in the end, you can't do what needs to be done if you can't muster the votes.
Most vets saw that McCain was not a hero. This is not even about the war. But, his behavior thru his life. We all saw the pics with McCain meeting with ISIS. When McCain was running for POTUS, it was a Ranger who told me exactly how he felt about McCain. He was right. I was late to the party.
