Not sure the polls have had time yet to reflect what the outcome of his McCain comments will be. The VFW and several other veterans organizations have just come out against him for his belittling of McCains POW status. See the following post http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3314458/posts

No offence, but that means nothing.
The vets who think Trump shouldn’t have ‘mis-spoke’ still support him.. the rank and file that is..
Of course it sounds like you want Trump destroyed.
He may in fact self-destruct, but he’ll shake things up in a much needed way before he does. Those who thought they might get the best of The Donald in real life have usually come up losers. The braggadocio is a ‘Schtick’.. if you’re gonna make bigger than life deals you’ve got to project a bigger than life persona... Trump has mastered that.

Something which my veteran father, father-in-law and uncles (and son, for that matter) would consider a compliment.

And the outcome is...... Trump is kicking their a$$es.

It's such a steam roll, many are not even bothering to watch or listen to all the canned BS coming out of the politicians. Their weak schtick is worn out.

Of course watch for those on the biggov payroll all start trying to sound and act like Trump. It's like Hillary going into a black audience pretending to talk like she's black. It just doesn't work.

They're pathetic.

The current polling is AFTER the McCain blip. 24%.

Do you have a VFW statement to that effect? I can’t seem to find any online.

I used to give to the VFW until I read here on FR that they made contributions to Barbara Boxer.

For a long time Viet Nam vets couldn’t join the VFW. Then they realized all their members were dying so they had to get some new members somewhere.

It’s an organization that has outlasted it’s usefulness. If it ever had any other than to be a place to go smoke and drink.
