I honestly don’t think veterans are going to be up in arms over Trump’s comments. I’m sure McCain has a small group of veteran fans, but the I doubt the majority of Vietnam vets will rally to his side.
Taken in context, Trump’s comments weren’t even how they’re being portrayed. Trump was energized over McCain calling us (conservative anti-amnesty folks) a bunch of crazies.
Whether McCain is a war hero or not is irrelevant to the decades of damage he’s done since the war.
McCain is all over Morning Joe this morning, looking doe-eyed and hurt as I predicted over the weekend. He’s demanding Trump apologize to all vets - as if Trump insulted all vets. What a hypocrite and phony this guy is. And to think I once gave him my vote!
Stumping for the Jihadis pretty much ended McCain for most of us. Had he armed the Christian settlements in Syria that would have made sense.
He has extremely little support.
