Earlier, 2016 presidential contender Donald Trump made a very ignorant statement about senator and Vietnam POW John McCain that may have greatly hurt his chances at the White House.
Trump said he favors people that werent captured in war.
Heres the Donalds follow up
Theres no doubt that McCain is a Republican in name only, but I feel Trump lost a good portion of potential voters by disparaging a member of our armed forces.
Donald can say he is fighting for our Veterans, and Im sure he supports them now and would as president also, but this may be hard to walk back.
Thoughts?
It might be tough given the job he’s seeking. I’d like to hear him say something sensible on those who have been captured, he does owe prisoner of war that much. But I do hope he weathers this, he is one of the very few with a spine.
McCain is a Amoral monster.
He threw Palin to the
media to cobpvwr his idiotic loss
you need to do a little research on this guy’s history and quit thinking with your dork.
you’re not trying to elect the RINO establishment president. no, you’re actually trying to elect a liberal democrat president.
people need to get their head right.
Sorry, I disagree. The RINOS and the MSM are TRYING to get Trump to apologize. Why apologize when you are correct? That is just more of the Politically Correct game plan...to force people to say what they don’t mean in order to be politically correct. Since I despise political correctness which I think is destroying this country and the 1st Amendment, I hope and pray that Trump DOES NOT APOLOGIZE.
I have to take issue with your comment. McConstipated is not a turtle face. He us a ventriloquist dummy. I am offended that you do not recognize the signs of the painful gastrointestinal condition from which he has suffered and which created his deep marionette lines. The etiology of this disease is the effort of holding in the poison caused by lies and deceit. Show some compassion!
My initial thought is that we saw this thread earlier.........
John McCain is old news .
No one cares and no one believes the media anymore .
4 Marines and a Navy man murdered by an Islamic Fanatic
Fetus body parts being sold like meat parts
Absurd Iran Nuke Deal
Wanna bet the MSM uses the Trump McCain issue as the lead story
Please
your response is way over the top.

Well I guess it’s better than something like this coming up right before the Election.
I still remember the Bush DUI thing less that a week before the 2000 Election.
People have plenty of time to vet Trump and the other Candidates. If this is irreparable, then I think Trump would step aside, though the thoughts of a Cruz / Trump ticket would make the 2016 Election a lot more fun.
Heads would be exploding as far as the eye can see. Both Men would eviscerate the Liberal Media and it would be hilarious on so many levels.
Yawn.
Don't you find that invigorating?
Trump doesn’t need to apologize.
"We in the GOP support McCain, and his support for Obama,
and his support for ObamaTRADE and ISIS which he formed,
and especially his IRS attacks against our conservative voters."
I don’t think it will matter much. I am a veteran and I do not care what is said about McCain. The man is a slimy piece of work.
Yes McCain is awful. He will do a better job when he’s not there anymore.
Very Well Said!
why apologize when you are “correct”?? because they will swift boat Trump without mercy- that’s why...whether its hillary or jeb bush (who will use the crew from his old mans WWII plane that crashed who were taken prisoner at Chi Chi Jima i believe)...
it won’t stop...
