Sorry, my bad. When I said this is not all that important, I thought you meant this discussion in general, not specifically about Trump saying someone is a war hero for simply being captured. Which is what I'm trying to get someone to explain.For a third time .... what is heroic about being captured ... ?That would be an appropriate answer had the question been, Why was McCain a war hero? But it wasn't. The question was, what heroic about being captured, which is not even necessarily specific to McCain.Umm ... you apparently didn't agree with it either. When I asked, what is heroic about being captured, you didn't have a single response. And how could you? Being captured is not heroic.
i have been clear that i think that he crossed the hero threshold when he refused to be sent home early.
I don't think it is all that important.so, please explain to me why this is important at all.
i agree, it is not important.
so, to recap.
trump said something stupid in the heat of the moment, immediately corrected himself, and liberals, none of whom would have ever voted for mccain, are trying to make a mountain out of this molehill.
we have agreed that neither of us think that.
i thought we agreed that the fact that other people disagree with that is not important.
so why are you asking again?
In regard to him making such a ludicrous claim, how does that fit in with his statement that he likes troops who aren't captured?
