And honestly....I'm kind of appalled that ANY Gold Star family would allow themselves to be used as his prop after his treatment of the Khan family.

It makes my stomach turn. He doesn't really give two shits about any of them. It's always all about him.

Using such hallowed ground as an obvious deflection move: absolutely revolting. Impeachment cannot come soon enough to suit me.

They probably don't want to raise a fuss over it.

But I'm sure they resent the fact that their private grief is being used by Trump for ratings.

What a creep! What an asshole!

Through his remarks. It's just embarrassing and pathetic. 45 ran from his service I don't know how anyone could remotely have respect for that. Especially after his remarks about avoiding STD's was his service.

I looked up as he was leaving the stage. He was fist pumping, smiling and laughing. I always wonder if he was raised this way or did he reject normal behavior later, Old Crude, Rude and Lewd is disgusting.
