Absolutely punch back. But ridicule him saying “That’s the most outlandish metaphor I’ve ever heard. How can you compare him to a pro-American war hero and a strong lumberjack with workingman values? That is preposterous. He is the antithesis of what you called him. He is anti-American through-and-through. And Charlottesville was a complete anti-Trump fabrication.”
Too many are believing he called him a true war hero and are “fact checking” that statement. That is foolish.
After the LAAP-dog media constantly accused President Trump of using excessive hyperbole all the time, I can just see Trump at his next rally saying:
And the fake news outlets just called Joe Biden a "war hero," can you believe that? Sleepy Joe a war hero?-PJThey said it... yes they did... the fake news outlets just said Sleepy Joe was a war hero. And chopping wood like Ronald Reagan, the great President Reagan, too! Sleepy Joe is like President Reagan now!
Fake news, that's all it is... they can't help themselves...
