McCain, whose status as a war hero Trump publicly and controversially doubted as a 2016 presidential candidate, appeared to retaliate in kind against the president in a C-SPAN interview about the Vietnam War airing Sunday night. In the interview, McCain pointed to wealthy Americans who were able to get out of being drafted into service in the conflict in which he spent years as a prisoner of war. And he pointed to a very specific type of deferment which Trump just happened to use.
One aspect of the conflict, by the way, that I will never ever countenance is that we drafted the lowest-income level of America, and the highest-income level found a doctor that would say that they had a bone spur, McCain said. That is wrong. That is wrong. If we are going to ask every American to serve, every American should serve.

I would like to know how soon he was shot down. How many missions did McCain go out on before the North Vietnames shot him down.
Plus I have read that he was flying in an a un-authorized manner when he was shot down. Too low or something like that
Oh, I’m sure President Trump is devastated that McBackstabber is acting like he usually does. : )
Trump should say he does not pick on men with a deadly brain tumor. That’s the tumor talking.
I notice you didn’t get a response.
