Im going to need a link where i said anything along those lines. But since you just pulled that straw man out of your arse Im not holding my breath.

Why do you and Trump hate POW’s? Is it because they were caught or because they remind you of thay vicious case of deadly bone spurs that kept you from serving?

My gosh folks. I wish people would leave the man alone.

This is about the time I began re-assessing my vote for Trump - it was childish and immature . . . and sick and disgusting.

He sounded like a Democrat - and some people on here applaud it. They actually applaud him putting down a vet who honorably served his country.

Think about that.

Crazy how screwed up our country is right now.

You should join the people on the left who hang onto every single word he says and find something to get offended about. You’ll fit right in. They’re constantly clutching their pearls.

So we'll count you Team anti-POW or can you just admit it was a shitty thing to say?

That was the one time I thought Trump had sunk himself.

When he survived that, I knew he would get the nomination. That's how powerful the bond is with his core supporters.

And he taunted them with such by his comment about shooting someone on Fifth Avenue and not losing any votes.

And they just lap it up without a thought or care in the world. Donnie 9 inch to save the day!

It was a great thing to say about McCain. He completely marginalized McCain...made him powerless, and defined his legacy.

In his death, McCain pretty much only being adored by the left.

For people who considered McCain to be a liar about who he actually was and what he actually believed, they loved that someone just rejected the built in "war hero" story that shielded McCain from all rational criticism.

Death saves McCain from the dossier implications

Delays with Russia Russia fake investigations running out clock on statute of limitations will save Hillary & Bill and of course the big dog, Obamaman. Running our statute of limitations was always reason for RUSSIA RUSSIA. That’s Clinton’s lifelong MO all the way back to Arkansas days

Actually it was brilliant. Anybody under the age of 35 (or older), immediately looked up John McCain to get the background story and discovered that he might not be a great of a human being as we were led to believe. The Trump base vote would be unaffected regardless of what DTJ said ( we already knew McCain was compromised)

DTJ would have never said it if McCain was a saint.

I think boozie’s point is that the way it was phrased, it wasn’t exclusive to McCain.

I hope they sting his has still. I don’t know why we celebrate these Senators with all this attention and love. Great McCain served our country and was a POW. Great! Why don’t we do this for all POW’s??? He is a Senator, a lying arse politician who help drive our country into 19 trillion in debt. Why do we celebrate these guys like they are legendary? I will never understand all this pageantry for these dipshits

Boozie really, really wants to believe that Trump was talking about POWs in general. Thus, like all liberals, he has convinced himself of it.

Rational people can discern, despite Trump's quip, that Trump was talking about McCain. And, he did it at a time when he was attacking the establishment Republican party. And, he did it about a guy who hid behind his military history to shield him from reasonable criticism.

McCain was the epitome of what the majority of the laymen Republican voters HATED about the party...politicians who pretend to be conservative, but are actually liberal pieces of shite when it came down to it.

Trump DESTROYED McCain. I loved it. I still love it. When you weigh all of McCain's life, he was a net negative on this great country. McCain never recovered. And, he knew it. It sat with him for the rest of his life. It was too perfect to see him prove Trump right with the Obamacare vote. And, when the truth comes out about his role in the fake Dossier, there simply won't be an argument that McCain was anything less than a traitor to this country.
