Trump: "I was viciously attacked by Mr. Khan at the Democratic Convention."

[napkinz]

[Cooley Hurd]

1. Dear Fuckmuppet... YOUR PARTY STARTED the Iraq war, not ours!

[napkinz]

15. In 2002, Donald Trump Said He Supported Invading Iraq

In the interview, which took place on Sept. 11, 2002, Stern asked Trump directly if he was for invading Iraq.
“Yeah, I guess so,” Trump responded. “I wish the first time it was done correctly.”

-snip-

Trump’s comments on Stern are more in line with what he wrote in his 2000 book, The America We Deserve, where he advocated for a “principled and tough” policy toward “outlaw” states like Iraq.

“We still don’t know what Iraq is up to or whether it has the material to build nuclear weapons. I’m no warmonger,” Trump wrote. “But the fact is, if we decide a strike against Iraq is necessary, it is madness not to carry the mission to its conclusion. When we don’t, we have the worst of all worlds: Iraq remains a threat, and now has more incentive than ever to attack us.”

53. It drives me crazy when reporters claim that Trump "was against invading Iraq"

without adding what you just did. Fortunately, I've noticed that reporters are finally starting to add this as well.

[napkinz]

66. on that and so many issues, the MSM has been derelict ... Rob Reiner nails it --->

and watch at 3:15 in this video:

"When he starts to obfuscate, ask him again, ask him again, ask him again, until he refuses to answer, and then you say, 'well clearly you are refusing to answer.'"

[sarae]

92. Thanks for the videos!

Rob Reiner is right. I wish the media would really hold his feet to the fire.

[underpants]

25. I have a new word. Thanks Cooley

Fuckmuppet.

[auntpurl]

56. Me too.

Not gonna let that one die.

[Frank Cannon]

74. I, too, embrace this new term.

O brave new world that has such things in it.

Fuckmuppet. I am in awe.

[napkinz]

88. is this what a Fuckmuppet looks like?

[Rustyeye77]

2. Viciously ?

Lying bastard.

[sheshe2]

29. Hey Rusteye, Welcome to DU!

Also I agree with your comment 100%.

[Rustyeye77]

32. Thank you.

[DrDan]

31. well - in terms of his military school experience, it might have been pretty vicious

in terms of real war, and real military service . . . not so much.

He just does not care for the beat-down coming from someone with an accent . . . and is too small to admit it.

[AgadorSparticus]

73. I think you are right that the beat down with an accent got under his skin.

[PatSeg]

60. I'm wondering what

his definition of "viciously" is.

[duncang]

97. Dipshit donnies idea of being viciously attacked by someone.

How many times have we heard from him someone was "mean and nasty" to poor dipshit donnie
So I'm guessing its.
1. Someone who thinks and says something.
2. Someone who doesn't pile praises of him.

[PatSeg]

103. Yes

Especially #2, "Someone who doesn't pile praises on him".

As long as people or organizations are "fair" to him, he won't try to destroy them, but even that isn't a guarantee if destroying them might benefit him.

[beachbumbob]

3. Trump can't shut up...that's such a blessing....

Totally ignoring his attack on Muslims...the disrespect he has shown our military....and his disrespect of our freedoms....

[Lil Missy]

4. candy ass.

[Johnny2X2X]

5. No Donald

You can respond all you want, but a leader would know how to respond without insulting a Gold Star family. A real leader would be able to let this roll off their back, but you aren't a real leader MR. Trump, you're an immature child.

[Stuart G]

8. very well said..I really like your post..and what it says. nt

[anamandujano]

40. I agree. nt

[Rex]

6. Yes but you said his son had no value, his dead ex-soldier son.

So Don, you fucked up bigtime. You insulted the spirit of the military and brotherhood. You can truly fuck off, the votes you are losing now will never come back to you in November.

[sheshe2]

30. +1000

[napkinz]

69. and attendees of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Convention gave him a warm welcome, showed support

They were chanting, "Lock Her Up!"

[exboyfil]

7. Are we sure some 12 year didn't hack

Donald Trump's account?

[Doctor Jack]

10. Trump would probably sound a lot more mature if one did

[kimmylavin]

42. AMEN.

[auntpurl]

59. Even 12 year olds know not to make fun of disabled people.

I would vote for a 12 year old over Trump.

[Skittles]

90. how would we be able to tell?

[Doctor Jack]

9. Its interesting how easy it is to distract Trump

We are 100 days from the election and he is still focusing on attacking his primary opponents and people that aren't Hillary Clinton. The best strategy the Dems have is to just keep hitting him from all sides and keep him off balance.

[anamandujano]

41. "Hitting him from all sides" is calmly speaking the truth or

simply stating a fact he can't embrace.

[Uponthegears]

11. Sniff, sniff

sniff, sniff

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

[griloco]

62. Young Trump reality show

[Uponthegears]

84. Ha ha ha

[onehandle]

12. He's on record supporting the Iraq War. nt

[TheCowsCameHome]

13. Keep yapping, Donald,

...keep yapping.

You're a gift that keeps on giving.

[MohRokTah]

14. .

[Fritz Walter]

48. This image is clearly Photoshopped

No way are his hands that big.

Other comparisons to Shatner may still be valid vis-a-vis follicle enhancement.

[MohRokTah]

57. I used Gimp, not Photoshop.

Gimp is superior to Photoshop.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

16. Oh you poor dear

[Stuart G]

17. Trump opens his Twitter, and out comes..shitter..

sorry...had to say that...

[JoePhilly]

18. #thinskin

[JennyMominFL]

19. I don't think he will lose Republican votes

After all, this is the party that Swift-Boated John Kerry. Hopefully this will lose him some Independents.

[Glimmer of Hope]

20. Respond all you want! Keeping tweeting please.

[Lifelong Protester]

21. I am laughing out loud here at this:

"Dear Fuckmuppet"

[panader0]

22. That one got me too.

[PJMcK]

102. Here's another good one from Scotland

Donald Trump is a cockwomble. (Look it up!)

[kimbutgar]

23. What a wuss

Wah wah, someone spoke out against him and his little bitty feelings got hurt. Wah!

I applaud Mr. Khan for speaking the truth about the hateful Cheeto. The fact the con man is unhinged is evidence of him being so thin skinned. He just put his foot in his anus mouth with his criticism of the gold star parents.

[JenniferJuniper]

24. At some point soon the kids are going to have to take the phone away

so let's enjoy his hysterics while they last

[emulatorloo]

26. Lol.

[Grammy23]

37. That'll never happen. tRump has that phone glued to his hand.

No way he will give it up. This is one of his main ways of campaigning...the lazy man's way to run for office. Just sit on your throne (porcelain or not) and send out your tantrums to millions of followers. Then wait for the media outlets to do more work for you by talking about your tweets ad nauseum. He's got this thing figured out and he is not going to stop easily. Perhaps if he sees a precipitous drop in his poll numbers he might get the drift that his strategy is not working...but somehow I don't think he will make the connection.

[RDANGELO]

27. Trump is like a football coach who never punts on fourth down.

The best thing he could have done is call their son a hero, say I'm sorry for your loss and then shut up. Attacking the Kahns is idiotic, but he can't help himself because he is a narcissist who is incapable of understanding empathy.

[underpants]

28. Playing victim. How not surprising.

[napkinz]

33. Steve Marmel responds

[sheshe2]

34. " You failed the humanity test."

What a whiney, sniveling little turd. He is something you scrape off the bottom of your shoe, nothing more.

[napkinz]

38. this ...

[Botany]

44. +1

n/t

[sheshe2]

46. Absolutely nothing.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

52. It has been said about Comrade Trumpsky's spawn, Uday and Qusay

or whatever their names are, that the douche doesn't fall far from the bag.

[AwakeAtLast]

98. BWAAHAHA!

Uday and Qusay!

[smirkymonkey]

70. +1000

No comparison. A true patriot and hero and a snivelling little coward.

[DinahMoeHum]

78. Speaking of which, his boys were of selective service age

after 9/11

Where are their dog-tags?

[napkinz]

80. good question ...

[KingCharlemagne]

94. Not a big fan of sport hunting. I sure wish that leopard could

have shot back. Would have made it a little more, shall we say, sporting.

[Rex]

39. [phone]

[thucythucy]

35. For someone so given to lobbing insults

and "vicious attacks" to all and sundry, this guy is an incredible crybaby.

And he's telling us he's tough enough to take on ISIS?

Confronted by a real crisis, he'd most likely curl up in a little ball and start weeping hysterically.

[patsimp]

36. You're an ass donald. Mr. Khan has more patriotism than you'll ever have

[jtuck004]

43. Yep. He hit you right square in your mouth, with his heart. n/t

[Botany]

45. Keep talking Donny

Hell, you keep this shit up Idaho and Wyoming might go blue.

Groups Trump has pissed off

Women
Blacks
Latinos
GLBT (Pence for Veep)
The NFL
and now Vets.

[TNNurse]

63. Sorry but he pissed off Vets

when he insulted John McCain.

[Frank Cannon]

86. Yeah, now it's just their bereaved family members...

That he's insulting mercilessly.

[napkinz]

99. McCain granddaughter comes out in support of Clinton

While the Arizona senator "responded with grace and forgiveness — as only a man who was held in captivity for years can," Caroline McCain wrote, "I’ve been nursing a grudge ever since."

"He insulted my grandfather and attacked the very qualities  —  loyalty, bravery and selflessness  —  that he and countless other POWs embody," she added.

McCain wrote that Trump never won her over during his candidacy, calling him a "misogynist," "racist" and "demagogue," citing his remarks on women and minorities throughout his campaign.

[Politicub]

47. Aw - poor widdle Trump's feelings got hurt

Maybe pence will kiss his boo boo and make it better.

[Fritz Walter]

49. Nope!

That's Putin's job, now that Spice Girl Melange is no longer around.

Oh, wait. Vlad is the alpha-male in that relationship. Ain't gonna happen.
Never mind.

[Dem_in_Nebr.]

50. Narcissistic Personality

that is what Trump has, in my opinion.

I worked with some when i was a counselor and it is downright impossible to get them to take any responsibility for their situation. They feel a sense of entitlement.

Trump is one sick puppy.

[Justitia]

51. Keeeep talking, Donald......-eom

[pansypoo53219]

54. can't take justified rebukes.

keep digging under his flesh.

[liberal N proud]

55. Trump is not going to let this go.

[AllyCat]

61. If this is a "vicious" attack, Mr Trump has NO

business being President.

[bucolic_frolic]

64. He always twists everything around

so that he is the offended one so he can reassert his position
as the dominant, controlling personality

Classic narcissism.

How does one get his followers and worshippers to realize the
danger he is to America?

[book_worm]

65. Your running mate (who you excuse on this issue) also voted for the war

[Lady Freedom Returns]

67. It was not vicious enough.

[napkinz]

68. ...

[smirkymonkey]

71. Whaaaa!

He a professional victim. How pathetic!

/revision/latest?cb=20110903160434

[JjohnsonAZ]

72. Trump is an utter pig

He has no idea of class or humility. If he had any sense at all, he'd be immediately apologizing to Khan's parents for his awful comments.

Scandals like this will only sink Trump in the GE. Which is great news for the rest of us.

[Fritz Walter]

77. Hey, that's an insult!

Porcine animals serve a very useful purpose. Aside from their role in some food-chains, they consume waste materials, and provide some entertainment. To wit, Warner Bros' Porky Pig, Green Acres' Arnold, and -- of course -- Pearls Before Swine's much beloved character, known simply as "Pig."

Whereas, Drumpf is a waste of oxygen, water and other natural resources. The sooner he leaves our very fragile environment, the better.

[roamer65]

91. Bacon!

...and pork sausage.

[KingCharlemagne]

95. And Wilbur (from Charlotte's Web) - nt

[Skittles]

89. everyone says and does stupid things occasionally

I think what defines you as person is how you respond when you're called out on your BS - Donald fails, every freaking time

[Buckeye_Democrat]

75. It's all about him

He's the black hole in the center of our entire Universe, apparently.

[DinahMoeHum]

76. Hey, TrumpleThinSkin!

Piss off, Drama Queen.

[mfcorey1]

79. DONALD, YOU viciously attacked Hillary at the RNC Convention. Did you forget?

[Warpy]

81. Keep going, asshole

Mr. Khan knows a lot more words than you do and is smart enough to use them correctly.

[BigDemVoter]

82. Oh, BOO Fucking HOOOO!

[lpbk2713]

83. It's politics Donnie. You were taken to the wood shed.

Can't stand the heat? You have no business in the kitchen.

And I didn't see anything vicious about it.

[Dorian Gray]

85. He's such a whiny crybaby.

No offense to babies. Or whiners.

[spanone]

87. poor baby, he just can't take it....

[awoke_in_2003]

93. I bet

he's wringing his wee hands.

[napkinz]

100. he's doubling down ...
