FYI, in the ABC Interview where Trump attacks the Khans? The Khans attack back...

This is the first article I've seen where it mentions that ABC also interviewed the Khans after Trump commented on them.

"Today the Khan family responded to Trump in an interview with ABC News, blasting his comments. “Running for president is not an entitlement to disrespect Gold Star families and [a] Gold Star mother not realizing her pain. Shame on him! Shame on his family,” said Khizr Khan. “He is not worthy of our comments. He has no decency. He is void of decency, he has a dark heart.””

As for the suggestion that she’d been forbidden to speak, Khizr said he invited his wife to speak, but she declined due to being too emotional. Ghazala Khan said “I didn’t feel anything except the pain… Mr. Trump feel that pain and you will feel better. Please. I am very upset when I heard when he said that I didn’t say anything. I was in pain. If you were in pain you fight or you don’t say anything, I’m not a fighter, I can’t fight. So the best thing I do was quiet.”

The public row with the Khan family comes at the same time as Trump’s attempted feud with the Commission on Presidential Debates over the fact that two of the scheduled 2016 debates coincide with NFL football games. Trump had claimed the NFL sent him a letter complaining about it, a claim the NFL has denied."
