Nearly a year after the election and Trump is a lot worse than I ever imagined.
The guy doesn't have a single redeeming quality. Terrible human being.
So what, you can't think for yourself? You can't determine that a particular way was handled poorly unless some tells you it was?
You know, you guys defend everything he says or does, regardless of how moronic it is. It's pretty god damn pathetic. You weak, sad piece of shit excuse for an American.

Why did he even do anything? He already sacrificed by being successful. All that this guy did was die, Trump paid someone to built a tower so he can make money. You should be calling Trump...Pressed by Stephanopoulos to identify the sacrifices he made for his country, Trump said, "I think I've made a lot of sacrifices. I work very, very hard. I've created thousands and thousands of jobs, tens of thousands of jobs, built great structures. I've had tremendous success. I think I've done a lot."
Trump also cited his work on behalf of veterans, including helping build a Vietnam War memorial in Manhattan and raising "millions of dollars" for vets.
Paul Rieckoff, the founder and CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, a nonpartisan group with close to 200,000 members, said, "For anyone to compare their 'sacrifice' to a Gold Star family member is insulting, foolish and ignorant. Especially someone who has never served himself and has no children serving. Our country has been at war for a decade and a half, and the truth is most Americans have sacrificed nothing. Most of them are smart and grounded enough to admit it."

Trump supporters, you made your bed, now you get to lie with this subhuman monster.
You knew EXACTLY what you were buying.
Trump tries to back away from the statement that is completely in his character, saying he never said that.
Two other families of slain soldiers back that up, because he never said anything to them at all. Which, again, refutes Trump's claim that called everyone.
I don't think it would matter if Trump was on video giving this message. His supporters would just claim it wasn't a big deal, he was just kidding, he's new at this give him a break etc...
Trump is a beneficiary of the terrible decision making of democrats. It's not that the military liked Trump; it's that they hated Clinton. A lot of them have a pure hatred for her because of 1) Benghazi, and 2) how her private email server debacle was handled compared to how the Petraeus situation was handled. I honestly don't blame them either. It wouldn't make me vote for Trump mind you, but I certainly don't hold a grudge with anyone who couldn't bring themselves to vote for Clinton.

- Christopher HitchensPopulists (and "national socialists") look at the supposedly secret deals that run the world "behind the scenes". Child's play. Except that childishness is sinister in adults.

As was more than clear over the course of the campaign, Trump never gave a shit about veterans or their families.
Trump's supporters - perhaps accomplices is the more appropriate words now - have zero patriotism to speak of by enabling this duplicitous whore of a "man".
