Trump Says Bowe Bergdahl Is A "Traitor," MSNBC Host Chris Hayes Cuts In And Corrects Him

GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump reminds us about deserter Bowe Bergdahl, who the president traded for several prisoners from Guantanamo Bay.

CHRIS HAYES, MSNBC: Just so we're clear here, Sergeant Bergdahl is not being prosecuted for treason, he is prosecuted for desertion. The Army prosecutor is planning on presenting no evidence that six people died in looking for Sergeant Bergdahl.

100% of the lefties. 98% of the few conservatives in the “news” media are also pansies.

Well listening to Youngstown Ohio news today they mentioned the freak Chris / Bruce Jenner about his deadly car accident and the news caster called IT a SHE about 4-5 times.

Screw the LSM!

‘Agreed. But I think Trump ought not to be saying such things — because if he is elected POTUS, Bergdahl’s lawyers might have good grounds for an appeal, on the basis of something like command influence.”

Sorry but I disagree! It’s this kind of fuzzy thinking that leads us where we are today. The reason Trump is where he is in the polls is because he is speaking the truth. The tangential “idea” that somehow speaking the truth might compromise this guy’s prosecution is a big, big, stretch. Trump is today a private citizen, entitled to say whatever he wants.

Who cares what the charges are? He deserted so that he could join up with the other side. To me, that is treason.

He looks like a Rachel Maddow if she were a real man and didn’t just dress like one.

I avoid reading most stories about famous or infamous individuals. But when one is running for political office, I pay attention. Trump’s a draft dodger and has no standing to comment on a military matter, whatever the matter is.

I believe Obama was a draft dodger so Trump by your criterion is just playing in the same ballpark. In case you might be wondering, I have not made a final decision as to Trump’s qualifications except that he is a very much more US citizen than Obama.

LOL. Welcome to the crowd of who want to tell Trump, "You can't say that!"

Al Capone was prosecuted for tax evasion.

Do we get to have Rush talk over the President during his next State of the Union?

Not being prosecuted as a traitor doesn’t mean one isn’t a traitor - desertion in a war zone may very well apply legally and it surely applies to those of us who care....

In my opinion, desertion of one’s post in the time of war and in the face of the enemy ... is treason.

And he didn't just "leave" his post. He sought out the enemy and went to them.

If that isn't treason, I don't know what is.

Al Capone was prosecuted for tax evasion.

Then Chris Hayes could say Capone was not a murderer, bootlegger or mobster.

Technically, Hayes is correct. It is Obummer who is the traitor.
