Everyone knows he would have nothing to gain by attacking Khan and his Family. Well any rational person that is..
So Trump apparently begged for back-up from Congressional GOP, and received none. They (wisely, if cowardly) did all they can to avoid touching the matter with a 10-foot pole. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-idUSKCN10C2GO Also joining the fray: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="in" dir="ltr">Invoking McCarthyism <a href="https://t.co/VbugNCthHx">https://t.co/VbugNCthHx</a></p>— Alex Seitz-Wald (@aseitzwald) <a href="https://twitter.com/aseitzwald/status/760234883264421888">August 1, 2016</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
He should go ahead an announce his plans to reform social security and replace Obamacare this week. I saw Pence wants to repeal Roe V. Wade, lets get the real agenda all out, ha. The fracturing is happening, the basis for an American Conservative party is forming up; maybe without evangelicals, just the Chamber of Commerce and the United Methodist.
fwiw, Hillary has been calling Benghazi victims' families liars consistently and their hasn't been this sort of media uproar
"*There* hasn't been". If you're going to throw out a baseless accusation, at least spell it correctly.
Benghazi family member - " you murdered my family member!" If someone made baseless accusations of me murdering their god damn family member I would explicitly call them a liar to their ****ing face. Yet, I don't even remember Hillary calling them liars. So a quote would help child.
disliking Trump and acknowledging the media is in the tank for Hillary are not mutually exclusive positions
Well first you can give explicit quotes of Hilary calling the families liars. Knowing how calculating she is, I find it difficult for her to say such a thing understanding how the smallest of sound bites can ruin an election unless you are Trump. Even if she did, I would do the same in her shoes also. I'm not going to tread lightly on accusations that I murdered someone's family member. If I didn't, I'm going to tell the family straight up. Then again, I know I don't have the temperament to run for a political office.
Mainstream media outlets like CNN are front runners for the most part. They run with the stories that are gaining the most attention at any particular time. Right now, Trump's idiotic statements and actions are the most dramatic thing to report in the news. Guess what, if Trump had the ability to keep his mouth shut and not shoot himself in the foot, CNN would have moved on to other stories.
She said that's not what other family members told her. If anyone reads up on it, you'll see that 2 family members said she lied to them and the other 4 said she didn't. That's what Clinton has pointed out. So, if you want to say she implied that Mrs. Smith was lying, yes, you're right. And she has a reason to. No matter what you dredge up, the fact is that Trump created this ****storm all by himself. He could have let it slide, but he chose a different route, and now he's paying the price.
The media doesn't have to be in the tank for Hillary- Trump makes that impossible by continuing to be an idiot. They gave plenty of press to Hillary's email server situation, and the DNC ****ups. And they may even have revisited this more- but the Republican candidate is causing all of this by himself. I repeat, this is ALL on him. He thought that this style would carry him into the general election- but- surprise- the stakes are higher, and the things that should have buried him long ago are now coming to roost. I mean, let's be completely ****ing honest here. If Hillary Clinton said that she didn't like prisoners of war, a la "I like the ones who aren't captured," there is no way in the world she would have survived. No ****ing way. Absolutely not. Could you even imagine Clinton making fun of a disabled person??? I mean, do you realize how low the bar has been set? It's astounding how much he gets away with b/c a segment of the population doesn't like the fact that they can't say f***** or ****** or spic anymore. The whole "we're sick of being PC" crowd. Right- being PC- you know what? In my day, they had a different term for that- it was called Manners. ****, Romney was a model candidate compared to Trump. If the worst thing you can say is about the 40%, or binders of women, geez, what the hell does that make Trump????????
Yeah!!! Hey Media - stop reporting the truth about Trump and start reporting conjecture about Clinton!!!!
Right. I read that. He think we should use couriers to carry out military commands because they can't be hack. He claims that's what we did during WW2. He will make the military great again by going back to that fantasy system. There is good news. The wonderful news here is, he won't be able to launch any military strike.
