Gov. Greg Abbott is coming to the defense of a fallen Muslim soldier's family, which has been under attack from Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
"The service and devotion of Gold Star families to America cannot be questioned," Abbott said in a statement provided Monday to The Texas Tribune. "Captain [Humayun] Khan, like many heroes who paid the ultimate sacrifice, will be forever remembered for their service in protecting the freedoms we cherish in America."
Trump has been clashing with the Khans after Khizr Khan, Humayun Khan's father, delivered an emotional speech Thursday at the Democratic National Convention in which he said Trump had "sacrificed nothing and no one." Trump has since said Khizr Khan had "no right" to criticize him and speculated that the soldier's mother, who also appeared onstage at the Democratic Convention, was not "allowed" to speak.

Such cowards. They just drink up the left wing koolaid as if they can’t read of form opinions for themselves. Makes me sick.
I wouldn’t trust BELO (WFAA) to tell the truth.
The khans are paki’s who support the moozlum brotherhood and sharia law. His law practice is focused on bringing moozlums to the US and he has connections with the clintoon crime foundation. The Captain honorably gave his life. His parents are subversives.
Abbott must have just received his FEDGOV check for resettlement of thousands of rapefugees in TX.
He’s looking ahead at the next election.
Republican.....The stupid party.
Muslim ‘dad’ is an operative of the Brotherhood; if I know it, why doesn’t Abbott?
Make your list...check it twice.
Ugh....SOOOO disappointed in my misinformed Governor.
For those interested....here is his Twitter handle....
@GovAbbott
Have at.
(Face palm.)
Brilliant! By October he’ll have them defending suicide bomber’s families!
Abbott can stick up his ass too. Trump didn’t attack Kahn or his wife. Trump was viciously attacked by this Clinton crony Kahn and if I were Trump I would sue him for defamation of character.
Loretta Lynch also worked at Hogan - 2002-2010.
New York tax attorney Howard Topaz, Clintons personal tax lawyer,
is a partner at Hogan & Hartson.
Soldiers were in a position where they would get killed, lining them up ...
I don’t see a gold star family more deserving of respect than a family who lost their child to cancer or anything else. Respect is earned as an individual, not conveyed through bloodline.
Gov. Greg Abbott better do some research on the father.
Sorry the son died; he was obviously a better man than the subversive that raised him.
micro attacks...
"Cannot be questioned?" Well, dayum.. that's a bit like saying "the science is settled" if someone doesn't automatically swallow man-caused climate change.
Mr. niteowl77
Trump is not attacking the family. He’s responded to the loudmouthed tool of a father who inexplicably blamed Trump for the death of his son. Trump — rightfully — pushed back. And now the media have the distraction they were after to divert attention from their own whoredom and that of the DNC, as revealed by the Wikileaks emails.
Let's give Trump's op researchers scrutinize Mr. Muslim Gold Star Father and Mother. I'm sure he's got a dead infidel or two somewhere in his closet. OR ties to *cough* the Muslim Brotherhood as a Muslim Immigration Attorney.
After this, Trump needs to take the offensive against The Hag and focus on her million and one skeleton in her and Bubba's HUGE closet.
Enough with this "Gold Star" bulls**t. It's NOT a free pass for Muslim parents to commit treason or to set a tire fire to Trump's campaign.
MEANWHILE, Hillary and 0bama have made an art of CREATING Gold Star parents.
“a fallen Muslim soldier’s family, which has been under attack from Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.”
Oh really. Who attacked who?
