Liberals, what Tweet about Khan are you objecting to?

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Trump doesn't understand the left, Rush was speaking to this on his show today. The left will stand up a victim prop Khan to blatantly lie about Trump and hope he takes the bait which is what happened here. The MSM then jumps in right on cue to lying and spinning. The winning move is not to take the bait in the first place, just keep gut punching Hillary on jobs and immigration until she barfs on live tv.

Trump doesn't appear to be smart enough to NOT take the bait. He can't wait to act out his inner child on Twitter

I asked you in the OP to provide quotes, not empty statement. What quote are you referring to?

Did I quote you? No

Just stfu then

I'm asking you about my OP post in a thread you posted in. If you're not going to address my OP post, go away

I will post where & what I damn well please. As to his Twitter stupidity the man acts like he is in high school and has to respond to everyone that evokes his name. A terrible lack of judgment. Mr Kahn was a NOBODY until Trump elevated him to Nancy Kerrigan status. Trump is a damn fool. He creates 90% of the obstacles he stumbles over.

What Trump and his cult are trying to say is that if Captain Khan had not died fighting for this country,

he would have eventually become a terrorist,

because all Muslims are terrorists waiting to happen.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Kaz.....

Who said it was a tweet that people are objecting to?

It is a combination of his comments in interviews and his tweets.

He got offended that Khan asked him if he ever read the USC....and he suggested that Mrs. Khan was silent due to some Muslim law.

Trump should have acted like a leader. Meaning....he should have said NOTHING beyond expressing gratitude for the sacrifice that the family has made. Get it?

You are trying so hard to defend Trump here. It's odd....since you have claimed over and over that you don't want him to become POTUS.

Nobody is saying any such thing.

Donald Trump’s fight with the Khans is a reminder of his greatest weakness

WHAT QUOTE DO YOU OBJECT TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How stupid are you people? What is unclear about the question?

The fact there's a quote at all criticizing the parents of a dead Iraq war veteran is pretty much enough. They're clearly in deep last grief. No one outside the convention even watched their speech. Donald made this a story by going after them and that was a pretty stupid misstep. This would literally be a non-story if he'd just shut the hell up.

But he won't. Like a lot of the idiots supporting Trump he can't take it when the demagogue is attacked. So we get to watch this play out like the horrible train wreck it is.

Any quote? That's just stupid. So you can't find a single objectionable quote, so you go with any quote? That's just stupid. You've been shooting off your mouth, show an objectionable tweet from Trump on Khan, one that makes the criticism you're participating reasonable.

You're showing again you're the stick up your ass party?

In an interview with George Stephanopolous, he wondered aloud why Mrs. Khan stood there silent, saying that perhaps it was because she wasn't aloud to speak because she's a Muslim. Then he said that he too had sacrificed.

As moving as Khan’s speech was, it’s what happened afterward that made the story explode. Trump, as is his wont whenever he is criticized, fired back at the Khans. In an interview, he oddly questioned why Ghazala Khan said nothing during the speech and implied that she may have not have been allowed to speak by her husband—a double hit on Muslims and women that only made Trump look worse when the mother later explained she simply couldn’t speak of her son Humayun without breaking down. Then Trump dug his own hole deeper. Asked by ABC’s George Stephanopoulos what sacrifices he, Trump, has made for his country, the GOP candidate appeared to compare Humayun Khan’s supreme sacrifice to … job creation. “I think I’ve made a lot of sacrifices. I’ve created thousands and thousands of jobs, tens of thousands of jobs,” Trump said. With some incredulity, Stephanopoulos responded: “Those are sacrifices?” Trump casually answered: “Oh sure, I think they’re sacrifices. I think when I can employ thousands and thousands of people, take care of their education, take care of so many things. Even in military, I mean I was very responsible, along with a group of people, for getting the Vietnam memorial in downtown Manhattan, which to this day people thank me for.”​

Yes, the fact the nominee of one of the major political parties felt the need to respond directly to a grieving parent of a dead war veteran when said speech wasn't even aired on network tv is pretty beyond the pale. It tells me that Trump is an idiot who is easily baited. It tells me as President he'd be an absolutely terrible Chief Diplomat and Commander in Chief.

There is absolutely no scenario where any person with a shred of dignity or sanity goes after a grieving parent directly. And Trump did.

Keep in mind this is only an issue because Trump made it an issue. If Trump had shut the hell up and moved on literally no one would be talking about this outside political forums like this. He's no genius. He's not even of average ability in dealing with people or thinking things through. Stupid mistakes like this one show that.

Trump to Father of Fallen Soldier: 'I've Made a Lot of Sacrifices'

In his first response to a searing charge at the Democratic National Convention from Khizr Khan, the father of a soldier killed in Iraq, that he "sacrificed nothing" for his country, Donald Trump claimed that he sacrificed by employing "thousands and thousands of people." Also, he suggested that Khan's wife, Ghazala Khan, didn't speak at the convention because she was forbidden to as a Muslim and questioned whether Khan's words were his own.

"Who wrote that? Did Hillary's scriptwriters write it?" Trump said in an interview with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos. "I think I've made a lot of sacrifices. I work very, very hard."

On the last night of the Democratic National Convention on Thursday, Gold Star father Khizr Khan, with his wife by his side, recounted to the crowd how their son, U.S. Army Capt. Humayun Khan, was killed in 2004 by a car bomb in Iraq.

Khizr Khan chastised Trump for seeking to bar foreign Muslims from entering the country, saying their son would not have been able to serve under a Trump presidency.

"Go look at the graves of brave patriots who died defending the United States of America," Khizr Khan said, addressing Trump. "You will see all faiths, genders and ethnicities. You have sacrificed nothing and no one."

Trump appeared to try to brush the speech aside, saying that Khizr Khan "was, you know, very emotional and probably looked like a nice guy to me."

Trump also said, "If you look at his wife, she was standing there. She had nothing to say. She probably — maybe she wasn't allowed to have anything to say. You tell me."

This appears to be Trump tipping his hat to some far-right-wing and nationalist Twitter users who have suggested that Ghazala Khan was silent during her husband's speech because they are Muslim and he prohibits her from speaking.

So, in all of that where is the great scathing attack by Trump? Where does he even mention their son? Why do you think they get a pass to use their son to voice their political agenda and expect to do it without comment?

Simply put. Yes. It's a pretty serious attempt to undercut what he said by using religious/racial stereotyping. It's also demonstrably untrue and if you spend longer than 30 seconds on Google you can find her response to Trump's allegation.

Again, it's a stupid pointless attempt to profile the Khan's FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. No one watched their speech at the convention outside the hall. Outside a few places on Twitter no one was talking about it. Trump is the one who started this. It was an absolutely stupid move.

Let's get this clear. Hillary is a loser. She's probably the worst candidate since Kerry. She's arguably worse than Kerry. She's a pretty clear loser candidate who in any other campaign would be doomed to lose and lose spectacularly. Why is she winning in every prediction model out there? Why is she ahead in nearly all the polling averages? Why is she ahead in the betting markets?

It's because Trump is TOO STUPID to not step into situations a person with even an ounce of dignity or intelligence would step into. He crossed a line going after a grieving family of a dead war vet. If this were literally anyone else, Republican or Democrat, we'd be prouncing the time of death of their campaign right now.

You want to pretend it's not an issue, but clearly a lot of folks all over do not agree with you on this. YOU DO NOT GO AFTER GRIEVING PARENTS. You don't. You just don't. If Trump is lucky he shuts up and this blows over in a few weeks like his McCain comments (which should have ended his run), his comments on the disabled reporter (which should have ended his career), or his comments on the federal judge (which is such an amazing blunder legally for a private citizen to make).

Trump: Hey, is your wife quiet because she's not allowed to speak?

You: OMG, he went after a grieving family! They were grieving in the privacy of the Democrat convention attacking Trump for their son who died 12 years ago. He just wants to be left alone!

You're a ridiculous little man in a ridiculous little party. The party who also said Trump in mocking Hillary was seriously asking the Russians to hack the server that was shut down over a year ago ...

Hey, you're the one justifying going after a grieving family for no good reason. And yes, she could have spoken. Get your facts straight.

Trump is an idiot. As an amateur it's expected he'd say one or two things that would look bad out of context. Instead he's saying thnigs that are terrible no matter what the context. There is absolutely no context where you go after grieving parents. Period. There's a reason the Sandy Hook Truthers are seen as the worst of the worst. There's a reason Westboro Baptists are seen as the shits they are. You do not go after greiveing parents. Period. The fact you don't get that is your problem.

If this were it, then it'd be a really dumb comment and we'd all be moving on once he stopped talking about it. But it's not. It's a guy that thinks it's ok to joke about asking the Russians to meddle in a US election. It's a guy that has no idea what's going on in the Ukraine but decides to talk about it. It's a guy that criticizes a Federal Judge born in Indiana because he's Hispanic. It's a guy that retweets a random meme he likes only to find out it's anti-semetic. It's a guy that mocks a disabled reporter. It's a guy that mocks a POW who has devoted his life to public service about being captured. It's a guy who goes to war with a reporter on a friendly network all while making menstrual jokes about her. It's a guy that thinks its appropraite to joke about dating his daughter. It's a guy that says off the cuff to his supporters to rough up protesters. It's a guy complaining about debating during a football game. It's a guy who loves to characterize hispanics and muslims in some of the most vile ways possible. It's a guy who demands to see a sitting President's birth certificate and college transcripts but won't release tax returns. It's a guy that only gave money to charities he'd talked loudly about giving after a newspaper calls him on it.

At some point, it's not just a random quote by a guy that's new to politics. At some point you have to admit the guy's an ass and isn't qualified for any of the jobs the Constitution assigns to the President. He'd be a terrible Commander in Chief. He's too easy to bait into action and too willing to disrespect the troops. He's never actually served. He'd be a terrible Chief Diplomat. His off the cuff jokes could sink negotiations or outright start wars. He'd be a terrible Chief Executive. He's bankrupted his own companies, he's vindictive, and he makes poor decisions.

So what is it he brings to the table? What great quality of character or leadership does going after the Khan's show? If your only answer is "strength", then you're by definition voting for a strongman. Look how good it's turned out for other countries who back vindictive strongmen.

I do not want Hillary to win. I don't like her. But I won't play a part in letting Trump win. I do intend to vote Hillary because the alternative is Trump.

That you repeatedly can't come up with an actual quote shows you're full of shit and just can't pull the stick out of your ass. You're offended because you want to be

Quotes posted earlier. You've chosen to ignore it.

You've also chosen to ignore the bigger issue that Paul Ryan, John McCain, the VFW, and plenty of other folks across the political spectrum have mentioned: "YOU DON'T GO AFTER THE GRIEVING PARENTS OF A DEAD VETERAN."

Trump is the reason we are taking about this today instead of bad financial news that should have hurt Hillary. Trump. He owns this.

You gave a bloviated pontification of the story. I asked you just for quotes that Trump said that offended you. Are you saying the Trump quotes in that exchange offended you?

Here is the only Trump quote I could find from you. "If you look at his wife, she was standing there. She had nothing to say. She probably — maybe she wasn't allowed to have anything to say. You tell me."

That offended you? Seriously? Even after it apparently turns out he was right?

Simply put. Yes. It's a pretty serious attempt to undercut what he said by using religious/racial stereotyping. It's also demonstrably untrue and if you spend longer than 30 seconds on Google you can find her response to Trump's allegation.

Again, it's a stupid pointless attempt to profile the Khan's FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. No one watched their speech at the convention outside the hall. Outside a few places on Twitter no one was talking about it. Trump is the one who started this. It was an absolutely stupid move.

Let's get this clear. Hillary is a loser. She's probably the worst candidate since Kerry. She's arguably worse than Kerry. She's a pretty clear loser candidate who in any other campaign would be doomed to lose and lose spectacularly. Why is she winning in every prediction model out there? Why is she ahead in nearly all the polling averages? Why is she ahead in the betting markets?

It's because Trump is TOO STUPID to not step into situations a person with even an ounce of dignity or intelligence would step into. He crossed a line going after a grieving family of a dead war vet. If this were literally anyone else, Republican or Democrat, we'd be prouncing the time of death of their campaign right now.

You want to pretend it's not an issue, but clearly a lot of folks all over do not agree with you on this. YOU DO NOT GO AFTER GRIEVING PARENTS. You don't. You just don't. If Trump is lucky he shuts up and this blows over in a few weeks like his McCain comments (which should have ended his run), his comments on the disabled reporter (which should have ended his career), or his comments on the federal judge (which is such an amazing blunder legally for a private citizen to make).

So the best ... and only ... example you have of Trump "going after grieving parents" is to ask if his wife was allowed to speak. And apparently he was right, she wasn't. Maybe he did his homework first? OMG, hang the bastard. You just want to be offended. The Democrat party wants to be offended, the liberal media wants to be offended.

Khan: Trump hates Muslims, he's never read the Constitution, Trump has sacrificed nothing for his country!

Trump: Hey, is your wife quiet because she's not allowed to speak?

You: OMG, he went after a grieving family! They were grieving in the privacy of the Democrat convention attacking Trump for their son who died 12 years ago. He just wants to be left alone!

You're a ridiculous little man in a ridiculous little party. The party who also said Trump in mocking Hillary was seriously asking the Russians to hack the server that was shut down over a year ago ...

Hey, you're the one justifying going after a grieving family for no good reason

Begging the question. My argument is that he didn't go "after a grieving family for no good reason." You're assuming the truth of your own position. Textbook example.

Khan did attack Trump and in a highly public and partisan venue, his child died 12 years ago not recently and Trump's "attack" was virtually non-existent. Is his wife allowed to speak? That is the ONLY quote you came up with. Wow, what a devastating attack [/sarcasm]
