I’ve always looked up to John Dingell - my good friend and a great Michigan legend. There was no need to 'dis' him in a crass political way. Most unfortunate and an apology is due.

1. Hey, Fred?

tRump never apologizes, he doubles down. So happy you are concerned and still love, support the legend that was Rep Dingell as you walk into the voting booth to once again vote for trump.

2. A tv scene with Fred Upton

Several years ago reporters were trying to get a comment from Upton as he was walking into the Capital building. He totally ignored them until one reporter asked What do you think about Kate Upton? She is his niece. He stopped cold, turned and said with a smile Kate Upton is wonderful. Then he continued. Everyone I have ever heard talk about her has said pretty much the same thing.

3. trump is just vile scum

no other way to say it

4. Yet he can't bring himself to say his name in the criticism.

"An apology is due" is also a pretty passive way of expressing it.

5. I think dump might have really, REALLY fucked himself up with these disgusting comments

REALLY

“John Dingell” is trending at #9, and I hope he goes to #1 and stays there for endless hours

YA FUCKED UP BIGLY, SCUMBUCKET

13. That's what I was thinking and hoping, Leghorn..

Like he fucked up and got himself Impeached.

6. And how did you vote on Trump's betrayal of his oath of office, you fucking sycophant poseur?

Oh, wow, how surprising!!! I'm totes shocked!!!

But vewwy, vewwy concewned you awe... Yeah, okay, pull the other one!

[Mars and Minerva]

7. Don't worry Fred. I'm sure you will be apologizing to Trump by tomorrow afternoon.

Every republican idiot who shows a little false indignation at some slimy Trump behavior, is forced to grovel and kiss ass within 24 hours.

8. Unfortunate my ass!

I hate this bullshit 'unfortunate' line. Trump didn't say it accidentally. He meant every syllable. It wasn't unfortunate. It was deliberate and intentionally cruel. So stop giving this evil scumbag the get out clause that he may have accidentally used the hell line. Grow a set and call Trump out for the bully he is.

9. Apparently Trump got some boos over this.

Not going to hold my breath it will hurt him, but John Dingell is beloved in Michigan and Trump accusing a beloved WWII veteran of being in Hell because his wife voted for impeachment may not sit well with Michigan.

It would be awesome if this completely destroys his chances of winning Michigan again.

10. Ur gonna lose this coming November, Freddie.

Ur opponent just got $50 for that comment from your Dipshit in Chief.

[John Fante]

11. This should be trending at #2 at least (behind dickhead's impeachment).

To suggest that a WWII vet is burning in hell while mocking his grieving widow represents a new low for this POS.

12. It is just shocking to me that he can behave this way and not lose followers.

It says a lot about the people who worship him. They are just as sick as he is.

14. And John McCain is still not a hero

He got captured, but then again he never got impeached, did he?

[TeamPooka]

15. Trump don't apologize. Tomorrow he will double down on the insult
