Off-Topic: Trump responds as total jerk to Muslim father of heroic soldier who died in action
Trump Responds To Slain Soldier's Father, Who Appeals To GOP Leaders http://www.npr.org/2016/07/30/488051071/trump-responds-to-slain-soldiers-father-who-appeals-to-gop-leaders?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=news "If you look at his wife, she was standing there," Trump said. "Maybe she wasn't allowed to have anything to say, you tell me." ... In an interview on MSNBC the previous night, Ghazala Khan explained why she chose to remain silent on stage. "I cannot see my son's picture. I cannot even come in the room where his pictures are," she said. "That's why when I saw the picture on my back, I couldn't take it and I controlled myself at that time. So, it is very hard." In that Saturday ABC News interview, Trump was also asked to respond to Khizr Khan's assertion that Trump has sacrificed nothing. The GOP nominee first asked if Clinton's speech writers scripted Khan's remarks (Khan has claimed to have rejected such help), then said, "I think I've made a lot of sacrifices. I work very, very hard. I've created thousands and thousands of jobs." He added that he, along with others, was "very responsible" for getting the New York City Vietnam Veterans Memorial built. According to the Washington Post, Trump attended only a few of the 20 planning meetings for the memorial. - - - I'm not a spring chicken anymore. And in my lifetime of watching USA politics, I've never seen *anyone* who comes close to the excrement-laden, bottom feeder, uncivilized, sociopathic sickness of Trump. This hideous creature makes Richard Nixon look like an archangel by comparison. How our political system has given birth to this fascist monster is a question of supreme importance. Keeping Trump away from the control of nuclear weapons must be the world's top priority. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): https://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: https://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: https://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: https://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: https://lauren.vortex.com Google+: https://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com I have consulted to Google, but I am not currently doing so -- my opinions expressed here are mine alone. _______________________________________________ pfir mailing list https://lists.pfir.org/mailman/listinfo/pfir
