"....Declaring Sunday “National Former Prisoner of War Recognition Day,” Trump said that “America honors our service men and women imprisoned during war. These patriots have moved and inspired our Nation through their unyielding sacrifices and devout allegiance.”
The honor, which is undoubtedly a deserving one, is a bit ironic given Trump’s previous comments about POWs. Trump has on multiple occasions criticized McCain’s military credentials and mocked him for having been a prisoner of war.
“He’s a war hero because he was captured,” he said in July 2015. “I like people who weren’t captured.”
.....
But the irony of this weekend’s tribute extends far beyond the president’s feud with McCain. In his federal budget proposal released last month, Trump proposed cutting services that many vets rely on, including Meals on Wheels, affordable housing, and a key interagency council on homelessness. He also received widespread criticism after attacking the parents of a slain U.S. soldier."
