Christie’s response to Hurricane Sandy was inappropriate.

I think Trump's observation of Mr. Khan's wife shows an increasing understanding of Islam on the part of the Republican candidate.

The Koran's wife beating verse that Donald Trump allueded to in his response to Mr. Khan's verbal scourging of him:

"Men have authority over women because God has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because God has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them. Then if they obey you, take no further action against them. Surely God is high, supreme. Dawood[2]"

Sura 4:34

I am saying it again, with the missed formatting:

" . . . the pain of losing their son while defending our country is unfathomable, and I think it gives them the right to say whatever they want, whether they’re right or wrong."

It this the new totalitarianism? When attacked with smears, you have no right to respond?

“I didn’t see Mr. Khan’s speech at the DNC “

Then shut up and have another donut, Chris

No one has the right to go unchallenged if they use a dead son to stand up in front of a national audience and spew a bunch of political falsehoods and lies

Victimhood has its limitations. We the people are weary of the faux crusaders

Esp if they made a living sucking at the trough of the Clintons and their spider web of shady organizations

“And for Mr. and Mrs. Khan, the pain of losing their son while defending our country is unfathomable, and I think it gives them the right to say whatever they want, whether they’re right or wrong.”...it may give them the right to talk about the pain of losing a child - it doesn't give them any more authority than it gives anyone else to gratuitously question how much Trump has sacrificed or his knowledge of the Constitution or his plan for a TEMPORARY ban on Muslims coming into this country.....

I concur with you on this as he could have responded more tactfully to what has happened He should leave Twitter alone and let the counter-attacking to be done by his campaign and the conservative media who have the mother-lode on Khan’s illicit connections and affiliations.

I doubt anyone remembers, but I opposed Trump’s nomination and supported Ted Cruz instead. However, Christie\s remark show that it is he who is the blowhard and the idiot, while Trump\s comments about the silence of Mr. Khan’s wife may be an example of prescience.

Gimme a break Cristie

This couple is doing a disrespectful Cindy Sheehan with regards to their son’s death: Completely politicizing it and using his memory in a degrading manner.

Shame on them!

But then they do push Islamification of the USA and the world and follow Sharia law.

“Can anyone in the Republican Party keep their mouth’s shut?”

I concur with you too but he does have to measure his responses with some thought. He is very lucky here that Khan is dirty and he needs to avoid these pitfalls at this stage of the campaign.

Khan stepped up to the platform and baited Trump. He needs to drag his sorry a$$ along with his head bagged wife back to their Muslim hovel and shut the hell up if can’t take the heat.

What criticism?

This should be Question #1 every time they push this false narrative.

What was the criticism you are claiming to be so indignant about?

I agree he should let others do most of the dirty work. Limbaugh, though, thinks Trump simply can’t resist fighting back.
