I think Trump should exploit this but he personally himself should say nothing because it’s a booby trap.
they’re trying to continue this idea of his insensitivity to parents who have lost kids.
exactly like the Khan artists.
One problem: The son is guilty, not the father.
It will likely backfire.
One of the PACs could do it.
National Review agrees:
The obvious rejoinder: She says shell keep the pro-Taliban folks who are close to terrorists out of our country but she cant even keep them out of her own rallies. Maybe she should try building a wall. Donald Trump might be the luckiest son-of-a-gun to ever run for president. If he cant make some noise over this and make up five points quick, he should just close up shop.”
It will be the greatest missed opportunity of all time.

Where is Captain Hyperbole when we need him?
He’s not just the father he’s a radical Taliban with Democrat connections.
He should be in custody.
They are all missing the point. This man and the wife were RESPONSIBLE for the mass murder. Don’t people see what the Clintons are doing. All Muslims are to be protected.
Does this mean something similar to Swift Boating in 2004 could be done? If my memory serves me properly, a group of veterans who served alongside John Kerry produced the ads and documentary concerning that candidate’s service in Vietnam and how he behaved afterward concerning that. And that Bush was not directly involved with it, and as I recall, did not make direct or immediate comments regarding the “Swift Boating”. The points expressed here make me think of something like this.
2nd amendment setup.
The only reason the father of the shooter was there was to bait Trump, its best that Trump say nothing.(If that is at all possible.) Before Mateen was there, it was all thought out before hand, that you can bet on it.
That’s what oacs and surrogates are for
Democrats are itching to goad trump into another Muslim issue
I heard that Mateen Sr. got a special invite from the DNC.
He had a good seat, apparently.
I wonder, did he pay for his own ticket, or did they front it?
And how are the optics beneficial for the Dems on this?
Both father and Taliban sympathizer.
Didn’t Trump learn anything from Cruz .... use a Super Pac. Trump needs to keep his hands clean.

Regarding the story today about the father of the Orlando terrorist and Hillary.
Rush just brought up a good point:
What if the Democrats with the willing media planted this story in order to bait Trump into responding?
No matter what Trump should ignore this story, and stay on message, because the media will again paint him as anti-Muslim, which I agree with Rush about that the actual result would then be what the Democrats want from Trump.
Let guys like Drudge do the work for him.
Trump should stay on message and let the people - people like us - point it out.
His daily rallies on YouTube are better than any ad.
