Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for Trump

Re: Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for T

OOOO! Deal with Donald! Scary! :lamo We watched speaker after speaker, including a 4 star Marine General and a Congressional Medal of Honor winner wipe the floor with the scam artist. Screw Trump.

Your the one whining about the Donald. I don't care one way or another except that I would like to see a lot of very blunt talk all the way around and a real fight. A fight similar to the Marvelous Marvin Hagler and Tommy Hearns fight. The kind were they beat each other silly.

Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for Trump - Vox [/FONT][/COLOR]

You know a normal well adjusted individual that had a conscience, was capable of even a shred of empathy, and wasn't a walking personality disorder, would have simply responded with something like "I would just like to thank them for their son's service and sacrifice for this country" and moved on. Trump of course doesn't seem to have a conscience and is just a bigot and an all around narcissistic asshole, so that was his response. The good thing about having Trump in the race is that in many ways it vindicates Richard Nixon.

You know maybe she didn't speak because its pretty hard to get up there and speak before a crowd of tens of thousands of people with potentially tens of millions of people watching on TV, and it was a very emotional moment for her, thus she just wanted her husband to speak for both them as parents of a son that had given his life for this country. How sad is that that in the greatest country on earth, such a cruel, pathetic little man is running for president of it.

A woman can speak, in Trump's world, if she's a 10 or perhaps a good piece of ass.

No way is this fraud in any way qualified to lead this already great nation!

Why is it wrong to wonder what the wife of this fallen soldier thinks? Do you feel women should just stand by in silence on important issues?

Given Trump's previous comments about women, the only conclusion to his wanting to hear from the wife is that he is saying that women have second class status in Muslim culture. His statements are beyond ironic.
 
Re: Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for T

Did Trump say something bad about the fallen soldier? Or did he just insult the soldiers father who decided to politicize his sons death?
Is that the standard for Commander in Chief---if the parents of the fallen soldier make a political comment, it's open season, but the soldier gets a pass? I wonder if the Trumpeters would have sat idly by if Hillary would have attacked the Benghazi widow (which she didn't) but left the dead son alone. Doubtful.
 
Re: Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for T

they have the right to speak their opinion

if others find no truth, that is up to them

And we have the right to mock them....doing so does not necessarily make us evil. Colter is getting jammed big time for saying only
“You know what this convention really needed? An angry Muslim with a thick accent like Fareed Zacaria.”
Which was a very legit point. She is getting jammed because we are now a very intolerant people, we pretend that we are a very tolerant people..the bestest humans who ever walked the Earth.... but that is ignorant BS.

What the hell does this Muslim Democrat who took a swipe at Trump in a speech at the convention care about Muslim aliens? He lives here. It is recklessly irresponsible to keep admitting Muslim aliens, when you know that some of them despise this country and its culture and are determined to subvert it. Better not to admit any of them, when there is no way to know which are benign and which are dangerous. I don't want this to become a large-scale France, where Muslims--quite a few of them obviously bad citizens--are at least one-tenth of the population.

so...Colter is getting what Colter deserves from those who think she deserves it

in the end

the kid is dead

and yes we are intolerant but only of those with whom we disagree, there is nothing that is respected any more not even human sacrifice because we value our opinion more than another's life

wouldn't you say?

:shrug:

on one hand we are politically correct...on the other...we are disgusting beings who say whatever is in our head

that is not really what protection of free speech was meant to be

sometimes we devolve

Nothing he said appears to have been proven wrong in that article.

Right, which is where most of the left goes wrong, they dont take this seriously so they are useless, but here is the thing....when we do devolve we need to be aware enough and smart enough to know that we have devolved.

The elite have failed so spectacularly that we cant get this sort of thing done anymore.

I mean look at DC
Look at our education system
Look at our Justice system
Look at our economy
Look at the global economy
Look at global order
Look at the health of the planet


I mean come on now, how much if this are we supposed to take lying down?

Getting ****ed can be fun, but this is not one of those times...

Because anyone with a conscience and the slightest notion of empathy would have realized that perhaps she opted for just her husband to speak because she was overcome with emotion and its hard to do so when your in front of tens of thousands of people and being watched by tens of millions of people on TV.

She did however give a brief interview on MSNBC so its not like she is forbidden to speak.
 
Re: Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for T

Trump has proven over and over and over again that he is a loud mouthed, rude, crude and lewd bully who is an embarrassment to his nation, the people, and the principles of the Constitution.

How any rational, thinking American can support him is a mystery.

Yes heaven forbid he point out to a racist and bigot that Muslims fight and die for this country too, and heaven forbid a bigot like Trump have the decency than any other president or candidate would have and simply thank him for the sacrifice the they made for this country and move on instead of being narcissistic bigot that can't even do that, but rather must attack them for it. Pathetic. What a small little man you are defending.

No, I say that we have all failed, the Elite, and the Little People, but because I believe that the ones with the greater gifts bare the greater responsibility the elite have the majority of the blame.

Does the writer of the OP know what the word slander means? You would think a journalist would.

If not here it is.

slander
[slan-der]

noun
1. defamation; calumny: rumors full of slander.

2. a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report: a slander against his good name.

3. Law. defamation by oral utterance rather than by writing, pictures, etc.

What did Trump say that defamed the family?

Ok, so there is the answer. Why all the phony outrage?

sooooooooooo first of all, I agree that the ones with the greater gifts do bear the greater responsibility...what are the greater gifts?

and

...whom do you view as the elite because I do not necessarily see them as the ones with the greater gifts

because are gifts and power the same?...I say no
 
Re: Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for T

He is the most dangerous and the most evil man ever to be the nominee of a major political party for the office of President.

You mean after the last one and the one before that, right?

Let's be very clear about what Trump is doing here?

The delusion on the left could be cut with a feather. It's over the top and getting worse.

Excuse, spin, project, invent, it never ends.

THe headline comes from VOX, a liberal very Anti Trump site, almost militantly so. Matthew Yglesias was fair for awhile and then he caved into the culture of the office. Which is in the middle of DC, where most if not all these people live and party.
 
Re: Donald Trump’s slander of Captain Humayun Khan’s family is horrifying, even for T

So he played games with the law so he wouldn't have to go, and then when he couldn't do that anymore it turned out he wasn't even capable of passing a medical exam.

And this is the guy you want in charge of the country?

are you OK with the drug addict that never served that is in the White House right now?
