“‘Sorry. Trump still acted like an ass ‘ / How so?”
Give me a break! If Bill Clinton or Obama had said the exact same thing Trump said, everyone on FreeRepublic would be pissed beyond belief. But when it comes from a rich boy who spent Vietnam getting deferrals, but who now mouths some conservative views - and only some - I’m supposed to think it is OK?
Sorry. He acted like an ass. You do NOT dump on someone who spent years in a POW camp as being a failure because he was shot down behind enemy lines! It is disgusting behavior!
You do if he is accused by fellow military of collaboration with the enemy while in their custody. You do if he is an insane, cowardly traitor. Then, yes, you definitely question his service.
It was a serious question. What did he say? I don’t know anything about this. Do you have a link?

A former Vietnam veteran with top secret clearance says he has personally spoken to numerous POW’s who dispute John McCain’s claim that he refused to provide information after he was captured and tortured in Hanoi, saying that in fact McCain’s code-name was “Songbird” because of his willingness to tell all to avoid torture.
Jack McLamb served nine years in secret operations in Cambodia and other nations before going on to become one of the most highly decorated police officer’s in Phoenix history, winning police officer of the year twice before taking a role as a hostage negotiator for the FBI.
“I know a lot of Vietnam veterans and a few POW’s and all the POW’s that I’ve talked to over the years say that John McCain is a lying skunk,” McLamb told the Alex Jones Show.
