    There’s a difference between disrespecting a specific person, which I don’t agree with vs disrespecting dead servicemen and women.

    If anyone can provide the proof from the horse’s mouth that’d be great. Otherwise all I’m seeing is a rumor and we’re all supposed to believe it, blindfully. I don’t roll that way.

      I like people who weren’t captured.

      McCain wasn’t the only one he was denigrating there.

      I’ll make it easy for you: if he was insulting Obama and said “I like people who aren’t black,” then would be specifically insulting the former president, but also black people in general.

      Can you follow now? Or does your intentional obtuseness preclude that?

        I understand, but the OP posted about Trump, “Calling Dead Soldiers ‘Suckers’ and ‘Losers”. That’s all I’ve asking about. Is if there’s an actual video or audio clip of Trump making this statement. That’s a pretty effed up statement.

        Yes I’m acknowledging his past regarding McCain and POWs, I don’t find that acceptable. Just so we’re clear.
