The gop is coming out of the woodwork to slam on trump for this because "the son was a troop!" but shouldn't they have condemned his earlier comments about Muslims as a whole? Why does it only matter once it's about two Muslims who had a son who died while serving in the military?

He has never said anything bad about Muslims, only about Islam extremist.

Can you give me an example of what you think he said? Please be specific and please state comments in context. TIA.

You mean the guy who formally endorses trump even though Trump calls him a loser for being a POW

The joke here (and I know the funniest jokes are one you have to describe!), is in '08 anytime anything happened, even if it was bad for McCain, the media, who was in the bag for McCain, would say "this is good news for John McCain!"

i was pretty uncomfortable with the visual of silent unquestioning burka wife standing next to agitated middle eastern man but I guess that's feminism or something?

I recognize that it isn't generally wise for Trump to go after a soldier's family in a country where the military is like a religion in itself, but I 100% guarantee that a lot of Democrats that are otherwise horrified at Trump saw the super pro-war convention topped off by that spectacle and were like "omfg".

He said we shouldn't allow them to immigrate (indefinitely) because there is too much potential for terrorism, and they should have cards to identify themselves so we don't let anymore into the country.

Probably a lot more egregious was his comment about Mexico sending their rapists and killers here when hundreds of children of Mexican immigrants have died fighting in the Iraq war. The gop only remembers ARE TROOPS when the parents of one speak out against them

No he didn't.

You came to this conclusion because of an echo chamber telling you these are things he said or implied. He didn't. You never actually heard or read what he said yourself, you just read some comments on social media.

You are a perfect example of an uninformed Trump hater.

Its honestly tough to muster up the energy to even get excited for the unlikely possibility of an upset. The electoral college system makes it impossible to challenge HRC this time. Her VP pick is not even a person in this election he is just a surrogate for EC votes that put the election completely out of reach for celebrity apprentice television guy.

I wish it wan't true, I really do. Nothing more boring then inevitability. But I guess it's better then being on the wrong side of it, so ehh.

He said he wants to put a stop until we figure out who these people are. That is a GOOD thing. There are plenty of rich as gently caress ME countries that can take those refugees.

edit: i like how your link doesn't use the word "indefinitely" or even implies it. I'm starting to think people have no idea what their talking about on this dead gay forum.

I love the idea that the average Trump supporting dumbass will suddenly ditch him in disgust if he openly came out for Muslim ID cards. If anything his numbers would rise. Looking at his plummeting poll numbers over the past couple days I think it's only a matter of time before Trump "jokes" on Twitter about internment camps or RFID tags for Muslim citizens. He's gotten this far appealing to the bigots and racists of America, why stop now.
