Trump vs. Khan Media Ambush

[Bush92]

At the DNC Convention the Clinton campaign shamelessly used a dead soldier for a political propaganda tool to attack Donald Trump. The Republican nominee stated in an interview that the wife " said nothing ", which she did not. Liberal media went after him. In an interview with George Stephonopolis (Bill Clinton's former Press Secretary) this comment was made. Then other members of media jumped in (Coumo of CNN, dad former governor and 1984 DNC convention keynote speaker and brother governor of New York....Mika of MSNBC who is Val Jarret's pal) about Trump "attacking" this family. All he said was the obvious. She did not speak. She didn't. But media is Clinton Machines mouthpiece.

^^^RWNJ TRAITOR hatred of our military.^^^

I can't stand Trump, but that doesn't prevent me from acknowledging the truth -- that it was Kahn who attacked Trump, whereas Trump's reply didn't even come close to the same level of vitriol.

Mika's dad was also in Carter's cabinet. No media bias, none whatsoever.

I had forgotten that. Indeed. Token conservatives you see on Morning Joe are all former "W" people pissed because little Jebbie did not get nomination. But Democrat Pary connection to mainstream media is deplorable.

Sure they are exaggerating the story, but it probably helps Trump in the long run. If I were him, I would rather be stuck going the next two weeks with "Muslim soldier's family offended" than the "Trump cannot be trusted with nuclear weapons" story.

So the media forced Trump and his fans to act badly?

Way to take responsibility.

They don't care for either candidate, but Trump will still get more votes from members of the military than Hillary will.

American military personnel favor Donald Trump for president over Hillary Clinton by more than a 2-to-1 margin in an exclusive survey conducted by Military Times ahead of the Republican and Democratic national conventions, but a strong majority of respondents say they are wholly unimpressed with both candidates.

More than 61 percent indicated they are "dissatisfied" or "very dissatisfied" with Trump as the Republican nominee, including 28 percent of those who intend to vote for him. More than 82 percent said the same about Clinton, the Democratic nominee, with 30 percent of those pledging to vote for her voicing displeasure with the choice.

"This is the worst presidential election I have ever seen," said one Air Force master sergeant who responded to the survey. "How in the world could we only have Hillary and Trump as the options?"

Such displeasure reflects the candidates’ high unfavorability ratings among the American public at large, despite both convincingly winning their party’s primary contests. More than half of registered voters in a recent New York Times/CBS poll had negative views of Trump (55 percent) and Clinton (52 percent).

The survey, conducted July 5-8, elicited responses from 1,915 active-duty service members, reservists and National Guard personnel, all of them Military Times subscribers. The results, while not a scientific sampling of the military as a whole (see our methodology below), is representative of the services' more senior and career-oriented members, those who run the military's day-to-day operations and carry out its policies.

Among the Military Times survey respondents, 23 percent said they intend to vote for a third-party candidate. That’s almost 3 percentage points higher than those who said they’ll vote for Clinton, and about half the 49 percent who say they’ll back Trump.

Nearly 7 percent said they don’t intend to vote at all.

By and large, the military thinks Trump and Clinton are total losers

It will be interesting to see of the healthcare coverage issues will tilt the military toward Trump some.

Hillary saying what difference does it make after letting 4 men die was much worse,,,,,at least Donald didnt say that.

How did he act "badly?" He stated his observations. They were factually truthful.

 

[Bush92]

I can't stand Trump, but that doesn't prevent me from acknowledging the truth -- that it was Kahn who attacked Trump, whereas Trump's reply didn't even come close to the same level of vitriol.

Nice to hear an independent voter with common sense enough not to believe what mainstream media tries to herd them to.
