[Trump states that the only reason these GOP candidates are calling for him to step out of the campaign is because they are doing poorly in the race. Graham, Jindal and Perry are the 3 that are speaking out the most and they are the ones that are in the last places.]

Interesting.

I’m a veteran and I’m not offended in the least by Trump’s characterization of John McCain.

He has some passion on important issues, but he's been all over the map in his past political life. I prefer for these guys when they decide to enter politics to start somewhere besides President of the United States. It doesn't seem like a job to OJT into; we can see how well that's worked with Obama.

Trump's rage is mercurial and his brash style may be great for firing people up. But some of his positions are telling. In front of an Evangelical group, he was asked if he ever prayed to God for forgiveness. His reply was something like he never gave that much thought. If you court their vote, might you not want to at least seem to think God is more important than Donald Trump?

We’ve watered down the meaning of a hero. Was McCain heroic for surviving capture? Yes. Is everyone who serves a hero simply because they serve? Uh, no. Does being a war hero excuse everything else a person does in life? Definitely not.

Bottom line: Senator McCain deserves thanks for his service, but he’s a terrible senator who’s wrong on most of the major issues of today.

BTW, I don’t think Vietnam vets will rally to McCain’s side and protest Trump over Trump’s comments. Many vets despise McCain’s politics.

McCain is no hero. On the contrary he is a traitorous scumbag who dishonored the uniform of the United States Navy. As I said on another thread he flew an airplane, got shot down, and surrendered to the enemy. I don't know what went down during his stay at the Hanoi Hilton, but by his own admission he did/said some things for which he was ashamed.

Once he was repatriated and safely ensconced in the US Senate, he led efforts to whitewash the staggering amount of evidence that we had left some troops behind when exited Vietnam with our tail between our legs.

He could have easily lied on the forgiveness question.

If he had said yes, that opens the door for an onslaught of media questions.

I think he was smart to give the answer he did - it fits with his character.

It is entirely possible that Trump, being Trump, has asked for forgiveness but would never ever admit it.

Too many Republicans use the hero TOO loosely, just like Democrats call Gay “brave” for coming out of the closet. Theres nothing brave about calling yourself gay in today’s America. There’s nothing heroic to be captured

Saying McCain is not a war hero is bit provocative and could just as well gone unsaid. Unfortunately the comment has only served to detract from the real message which was spot on. The comments about McCain turning his back on veterans and the VA troubles is spot on.

Trump’s comment that McCain was more interested in Iraq’s border than Arizona’s is also right on target.

Trump is making the establishment look bad and the media is turning out to protect them. Fire at will Mr. Trump!

I have watched this flak all weekend. I sincerely thank you for your military service Mr. McCain, but you are no hero, many of the true hero's never returned. The fact that you even allow anyone to call you that speaks volumes about your character.

Your tenure as a Senator leaves a lot to be desired, too bad JD Hayworth wasn't able to replace you years ago. I guess he is one of the crazies you will eagerly try to throw under a bus when you feel threatened or get egg on your face...

Mr Trump may not get the nomination in the end, however he will certainly not apologize and will make sure the Washington cartel is exposed!

Trump has my full respect.

Regardless of his past, the truth is coming out from him as its vessel. I respect the truth from wherever it flows.
