We know that Trump met with six Gold Star families and has vets who are very supportive of him. Perhaps Trump's team could put an ad together with some of these families and vets that support him. I don't know if this is going to run on TV, but these "heartstring" kind of ads do touch some people. I live in a swing state and haven't seen any Trump ads. I believe it is crucial for Trump to counter their narrative by going right to the people.

Trump never makes the same mistake twice. He won’t fall for it. He probably already has a plan how to act the next time.

Trump does not need to step into another debate with a Gold Star parent especially a die-hard democrat shill. There simply is no winning. And another week in the news cycle of being accused of being insensitive and disrespectful

Trump should make a firm statement affirming his admiration and respect for the sacrifices of our military and their families, especially those who paid the ultimate unfathomable price

Add a restatement of his goal to keep America safe from the terrorism that has cost so many lives and led these troops to lay down their lives

Rinse lather repeat and STAY ON TARGET; Hillary Clinton and her disastrous corruption-influenced policies that have laid American security interests bare and at risk!!!

Donald don’t take the bait- a carefully crafted polite but firm response please and keep MOVING FORWARD

(offering a private, no press, no photo meeting with the family would be respectful even if they are shills being set up by Hillary)

The “gold star” thing seems to be working out great for the communist DemocRATS. It’s a shame that the families of these fallen warriors have sided with the same type of people who their sons and daughters despised and died fighting against. I don’t think many of these fallen warriors would be happy with Clintoon bringing 100,000 unvetted Muzzies into their country. JMO.

Kahn was never “going away”. He is this cycles Cindy Sheehan. Can’t blame this one on Trump, IMO. No matter what he said he was going to get this garbage from the Dems/MSM.

know of a family that lost their son in combat. Out of the blue they got a call from the Trump campaign, requesting they meet with DJT in JAX, FL this past week. Although surprised by this they did go. They thought they might have quickly met with Trump, do the handshake and be on their way. Actually, they spent forty five minutes with DJT in a private setting. There were about five other families there also. Do not know specifics, but they report that he was warm, supportive and compassionate.

Just as we all thought he would be.

Trump should just ignore this ad. If asked, just thank the family for their son’s sacrifice and wish them well.

However, Trump can cut into this narrative with an ad of his own with Gold Star families and vets that do support him.

I dont think the war dead rest easy with the legion of funders of the corrupt inept politician who has been shown as funding ISIS, approaching their families to exploit their grief over their deaths

I read they approached 5 Gold Star families with no success before they landed on their bag holder, Kzmir Khan

That’s two “gold star” families who have decided to back the anti-American position. I just hate that they allow themselves to be used as political props for the “DemocRATS”. I would have more respect for my son or daughter’s sacrifice than that. It cheapens the their sacrifice. I had a “gold star” mother over to my house the other night. She is definitely not a Clintoon supporter.

It's not what Trump said. It's what the "DemocRATS" told her to say.

Let’s see if Trump can control himself with this new bait from the Dems.

If not, he’ll be down another few points

I don’t think he can just ignore it but I think he can end it in on one news day with a good response

I also don’t think that Trump should use Gold Star families in ads and photo ops vs other Gold Star families. ENOUGH of exploiting the war dead and riding their sacrifice to votes

No “I have a bracelet too”

I can believe it. The Khan man is doing quite well with the death of his son. It's a shame. I see a Federal judgeship or maybe even a seat on the Supreme Court in his future. Gotta have our first "historic" Muzzie Supreme Court justice don't ya know.

It’s losing it’s clout. The polls are changing and Trump won’t fall for it. The vets will fight this battle and have been.
