Khan to Trump: 'Put that Purple Heart back'
CNN Politics ^ | Tue August 2, 2016 | Theodore Schleifer

Posted on 08/03/2016 5:55:09 AM PDT by COBOL2Java

(CNN)Khizr Khan on Tuesday accused Donald Trump of dodging the Vietnam War draft, and said he shouldn't have accepted a Purple Heart given to him at a rally earlier in the day, deeming it the latest sign of his inability to empathize with parents of fallen soldiers.

"You dodged the draft," Khan, a Muslim whose son was slain in the Iraq War, said of Trump to CNN's Anderson Cooper. "Put that Purple Heart back on that person's chest."

A military veteran supporting Trump had gifted the Republican presidential nominee his Purple Heart, prompting Trump to say he "always wanted to get the Purple Heart" and this was "much easier" than serving in combat.

He’s a greasy little b*stard who’s only interested in making political connections to promote his business interests.

Hell no hes not going away because he’s on CNN’s payroll now. Each and every day they parade out this Clinton paid cronie laywer to go on and bash some a little more. This past week the SOB was on “Meet the Press”. No kidding, Meet the Press. They want 1000% media exposure for this little lying Muslim POS. That’s how they want to take Trump out 3 months before the election, so the psychotic evil bitch can be elected in a landslide. All the lib channels are now interviewing lib shrinks and asking them about about Trump’s “mental health”. All the lib programs are saying that the Trump campaign is imploding and insiders know he has no chance against the bitch from hell. Full steam ahead to get the story off a 400 M dollar bribe paid out by Obama to get the sailors back and the Clinton email story. It’s all about Trump. It never ends. For the sake of your sanity never switch your channels to CNN or MSNBC or anything with Megyn Kelly on it.

WE will NEVER save this nation if WE let this PC CRAP stand, EVERYONE here NEEDS to realize that this IS Trumps number 1 battle WE should NEVER have to apologize for what we think or say in this country our founders are turning over in their graves for what WE have come to accept in this country as SO CALLED free speech!!!

Time to put this shill away, his 15 minutes are up

The arrogant prick khan has no standing
Who does he think he’s talking to- a woman?

Amen, Trump Girl! To repeat a famous quote from Margaret Thatcher. As GHW Bush mulled over what to do in response to Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait in August 1990 – to repel the Iraqi leader militarily or not – Thatcher would tell Bush in an aside at an Aspen Institute conference:

I thought this poser Con man, Mr Website Scrubber wanted to get out of the spotlight..and end his ‘fight’ with Trump.

He’s been exposed as a MB operative, so he best slink back into his pit...and stay.

khan and his goat-looking “wife” should be deported/exiled. What puppets for sharia and anti-Free-America losers.

Yep....perfect reminder!!

We have too many here falling into the MSM/progressive trap and worrying and going wobbly.

Now is NOT the time to go wobbly! Now is the time for all GOOD men and women to stand strong...and come to the aid/defense of Trump...for the last chance to save their country!

He crawled back out of his hole when he heard the clinking sounds of silver.

The man’s a tool - and I use that word in the most demeaning way.

“I’ve heard all I need to from that “Muzzie”. I feel for the loss of his son but would rather see the father sent back to Pakistan where he came from. We already have too many Muslims in this country.”

Sadly Mr. Kahan is USING his son’s time in the military service and heroric sacrifice of his very life to PROMOTE his (the father’s ) political agenda. This gets me ANGRY to no end.

On a strategic level, Trump has to just ignore this guy, no tweets, nada. Don't feed the beast. He is being baited again. Donald..take a breath, we can deal with guys like this when you are President. His son, I honor his service and his sacrifice. Does this self serving idiot know what he is doing to his son's memory by making a spectacle of himself?

I advise a great read, Wafa Sultan's A God that Hates. Gives you real insight into the Muslim mind, beyond the raving lunatic stuff. How they can never be wrong, how the culture encourages conflict and discord, how trust even within families is almost non existent. Sounds Satanic to me.

Exactly. The enemy has two purposes in these attacks: to spread disinformation to the Low-Information crowd, and to dishearten the troops.
